Mercedes-AMG S 63 sedan launched at Rs 2.53 crore
The most powerful sedan version of the Mercedes S-class, the AMG S 63, has been launched at Rs 2.53 crore (ex-showroom, Bangalore). Mercedes also recently launched AMG S 63 Coupé along with the standard S-class Coupé and the G 63 ‘Crazy Colour Edition’.
The Mercedes-AMG S 63 looks almost identical to the S 500 sedan on sale in India, save for a more aggressive styling with new bumpers, side skirts, quad exhausts with chrome finish and larger AMG alloy wheels.
Inside, the beige leather upholstery of the standard S 500 sedan is replaced by AMG-embossed black leather to add to the sedan’s sporty credentials. The S 63 also carries over all the luxuries of the standard S-class such as the fully electric front seats, and the twin LCD displays for the instrument cluster and COMAND infotainment system.
Mechanically is where the AMG S 63 stands out. Under the hood is a 577bhp 5.5-litre twin-turbo AMG V8 that develops a massive 91.77kgm of torque mated to a seven-speed automatic gearbox with paddle shifters. The gearbox offers three settings – Comfort, Sport and Manual. The AMG S 63 sedan, like its coupé counterpart, gets Mercedes’ Magic Ride Control system. The system uses a front facing stereo camera to scan the road for undulations and adjust the suspension to offer the most comfortable ride possible.
Ex-showroom, Delhi - Rs 2.48 crore
Ex-showroom, Mumbai - Rs 2.44 crore
