Next AMG E-Class’ blend of space, refinement and 510 hp inline six performance will make it a killer daily
M-tuned 5-Series make some of the best daily drivers. You get most of the comfort and refinement of a luxury car, enough passenger and cargo space to handle a road trip, or just a trip to the DIY store, and you also have the performance and handling that’ll have you wanting to take the long way home from work at least a couple of times a week.
For 2025 the E53 will become even more versatile thanks to the addition of hybrid power. The old model’s 429 hp twin-turbo V6 is rumored to be making way for a new electrically-assisted inline six that features a single motor integrated with the automatic transmission. Apparently derived from the powertrain in the S580e PHEV, it could deliver a total system output of around 503 hp and 553 lb-ft for a low-four-second zero to 60 mph time. But what we don’t yet know is how far it will go on a full charge of its battery. swapped its V8 for a PHEV inline four, but the hybrid system is so performance-biased and the battery so small that it can only cover 8 miles on electric power. The S580e, on the other hand, has a large 28.
We’re expecting the AMG E53 to make its debut either late this year or early next, with sales starting in mid 2024. But it’s likely that only the sedan will be available in North America, where it will inevitably cost more than the $81,300 currently being charged for the 2023 sedan.
