  • 2017 AMG C63 Coupe Will Fight For the Sportiest C-Class Model Prize

    2017 AMG C63 Coupe2017 AMG C63 Coupe is finally here and it has a lot to demonstrate. One of the world’s most distinctive vehicles strikes with the well-known high-end features and some additional goodies. And with the touches here and there by the AMG crew the 2017 C-Class is ready to rule over the streets.

    Brand’s latest creation will celebrate its world premiere on September 15, 2015 at the Frankfurt International Motor Show and will be available for purchase in ne summer of 2016. In fact, we do expect that this model will bring vast media and customer attention. And no wonder: geared with the AMG 4.0-liter V8 biturbo engine, producing a total of 469 hp (344 kW) in standard trim or 503 hp (369 kW) with the C63 S pack and with some exclusive engineering wonders this vehicle surely will set new benchmark for all other hi-end sport vehicles.

    Exterior

    The Mercedes-AMG C63 Coupe fascinates with proportions. The vehicle comes with exterior design noticeably different from  the C-Class Coupe model. As you can see, the vehicle comes with increased track width and redesigned front and rear fenders along with wide wheel arches. All these changes contribute to the sportier and more aggressive stance of the vehicle. After all, we are talking about the sportiest C-Class up to date, aren’t we?

    Furthermore, the front strikes with low arrow-shaped twin blade grille and A-wing front spoilers, while all the lines and contours contribute to that stylish and elegant look. The sides of the Coupe demonstrate some unique profile, that is further accented by the large wheels.

    The back of the vehicle is completely restyled and now includes a diffuser insert and two chrome-plated twin tailpipes. The optical air outlet openings serve not only as an elegance booster, but also improves the air flow, allowing it to have some enhanced aerodynamic features. And the sharp blade not only contributes the nice looks but also noticeably reduces the rear-axle lift.

    Interior

    2017 AMG C63 Coupe

    2017 C63 Coupe’s cabin welcomes every willing and brave man to a place of high quality materials and pleasant to touch components. There are numerous AMG controls and buttons and of course the vehicle is geared with sports seats, but if there is someone still unsatisfied, the vehicle could be ordered with special Performance seats.

    Performance

    The vehicle, which is the only one in the segment to be geared with an 8-cylinder biturbo engine completes the 0 to 100 km (0 to 62 mph) sprint in just 3.8 seconds  for the C63 S Coupe and 3.9 for the C63 Coupe model.  And with this impressive start the C63 Coupe has a top speed of 279 km/h (155 mph) and the C63 Coupe S is a bit faster: 324 km/h (180 mph).

    As you might know, the 4.0-liter 8-cylinder engine has already been proven in the C63 Sedan and in the AMG GT S vehicle. What is so special about the unit is that it features two turbochargers that form the so called “hot inside V”. This contributes for some compact construction, improved response and lowered exhaust gas emissions.

    2017 AMG C63 Coupe

    AMG also contributed to some gearshift improvements. The special AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 7-speed sport transmission system comes with tailor-made dynamics and high flexibility. Whether the driver prefers the automatic or manual variant, he will instantly tell the difference from older models: the shifts are executed faster and smoother.

    But the engine and the gearbox are not the only one that make the 2017 C63 Coupe so flexible. The vehicle also comes with redesigned suspension system. A four-link front suspension with racing-style brake connections allow greater acceleration, while the rear axle contributes for more precise wheel control and increased stiffness. Further measures include AMG-specific wheel carriers, stiffer elastokinematic tuning and higher negative camber.

    Furthermore, the C63 S offers and even more precise control via the 3-stage ESP with “ESP ON”, “ESP SPORT Handling Mode” and “ESP OFF”. There is really something for someone.

    And there is one more goodie. The C63 S Coupe is equipped with dynamic engine mounts that help for further resolve conflicting aims of comfort and performance. Nice, huh?

    Safety

    And with all this on board, the latest Mercedes-Benz vehicle also needs some safety measures. First of all the vehicle is geared with ATTENTION ASSIST drowsiness detection system and COLLISION PREVENTATION ASSIST PLUS, which helps to prevent rear-end collisions. And of course, there are numerous more optional safety additions.

    Beautiful, stylish and powerful. This vehicle surely deserves some attention.

  • Mercedes-Benz C 63 AMG Coupe Black Series

    Mercedes-Benz has announced the most powerful and brutal C-class, ever. The C 63 AMG Coupe Black Series boasts 517PS (380 kW) and 620Nm (460lb–ft) of torque. This is a 29PS more than a C 63 AMG equipped with performance package.

    The performance is breath-taking: 0 to 100 km/h in 4.2 seconds and top speed somewhere beyond 300 km/h (without speed limiter). Furthermore, the 6.2 liter naturally aspirated V8 need just 12.2 litres per 100 km on combined cycle and emits 286 g/km of CO2. So, you can have an economical super sports car. Great!

    The engine is mated to the well-known AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 7-speed sports transmission, which has four modes. The double-declutching function and RACE START promise maximum motoring pleasure and a high degree of variability.

    “AMG has its roots in international motorsport. The new C 63 AMG Coupé Black Series is the best proof there is for the permanent transfer of technology from the race track to the road. The numerous successes in the DTM, the customer sports range featuring the SLS AMG GT3 and our commitment to Formula 1, where we have been providing the Official F1TM Safety Car and the Official F1TM Medical Car for the past 15 years, continuously spur on our engineers and technicians. The C 63 AMG Coupé Black Series embodies the new AMG brand claim, Driving Performance, like no other AMG model,” said Ola Källenius, the CEO of Mercedes-AMG GmbH.

    The C 63 AMG Black Series comes with a greater track width and with enormous tires – 255/35 R 19 and 285/30 R 19 mounted on 9.0J x 19” and 9.5J x 19” wheels, respectively. The alloys are finished in titanium grey.

    The 3-stage ESP offers the ideal solution for all driving situations: via the ESP button the driver can choose from the “ESP ON”, “Sport Handling Mode” and “ESP OFF” stages.

    The ABS system has been completely retuned and the AMG high-performance braking system has also been redeveloped. At the front axle you’ll get 390 x 36 millimetres brake rotors and integral discs at the rear axle 360 x 26 mm. Red-painted 6-piston fixed callipers at the front and 4-piston fixed callipers at the rear reliably decelerate the perforated, fade-resistant brake discs, which are ventilated all round.

    The interior matches to the exterior – black with red highlight elements, displaying the functional atmosphere of a true racing vehicle, whilst at the same time positively glowing with high quality and lovingly crafted details. The steering wheel is wrapped in Nappa leather and features aluminium shift paddles for manual gear changes. There are also red seat belts and red contrasting topstitching on the steering wheel, on the seats, door centre panels, armrests on the doors, the centre console and on the shift lever gaiter add some interesting highlights. An exclusive “Black Series” logo adorns the trim on the dashboard, which sports a high-gloss black piano-lacquer look.
