In a world of 400hp hot hatches and 700hp SUVs, the GT 63 S E Performance seems truly incredible
produces , and which can already feel uncomfortably fast. The 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 and electric motor double act also contribute 1,033lb ft. To think an old V8 C63 seemed pretty strong with half that figure...
Quite what the GT 63 SE will be like to drive must remain unanswered for a while, but we do know what it'll cost: £173,655. That's a significant amount more than the regular GT 63 S, which was £141,785 , but then buyers are getting another 200hp. On top of the 639hp that was already there in one of AMG's finest four-doors of the past few years.
There is no comparison from which the GT 63 SE doesn't emerge looking monstrously powerful. It has another 208hp over the most powerful BMW M car ever made, the M5 CS, which is about the only rival on price given recent used values. Even allowing for the considerable complexity that a plug-in hybrid system will add - 2,380kg is the quoted weight, or 260kg more than standard - AMG says the big red Benz will reach 62mph in 2.9 seconds, double that in 10 seconds, and reach 196mph.
Sitting at the top of the UK AMG range, the new GT 63 will come full to the gunwales with equipment, including ceramic brakes, AMG Ride Control+ suspension, and 21-inch forged wheels. Optional extras include a two-tone steering wheel, deep-pile floor mats, and paints from the 'Manufaktur' palette - featuring Olive metallic and Copper Orange magno. This might be new-school AMG technology, but evidently the E Performance is set to offer old school AMG plushness as well.
