SPYSHOTS: Mercedes-Benz C 63 AMG super wagon

AMG-C63-T-5

Last week, our Euro spies spotted the upcoming W205 Mercedes-Benz C 63 AMG sedan testing in Europe; now we have been supplied pics of the wagon version doing the same. This taped-up black super wagon was spotted refuelling at a Q8 station in Sweden.

The fast estate will share a powertrain with the hot sedan, which means that it will no longer have a monster 6.3 litre V8 engine. Even this sort of car isn’t spared from the downsizing wave, so the W205 AMG will be moved by a new twin-turbo 4.0 litre V8.

The new V8 shares a modular architecture with the 2.0 litre four-cylinder engine found in the A 45 AMG, CLA 45 AMG, and GLA 45 AMG cars, so it could well be two of those blocks installed in a V-bank. The M177 is expected to churn out about 480 hp. If the A 45 AMG’s verve is multiplied by two as well, this will be one hell of a super wagon. Audi RS4 Avant, watch out!

    This is the machine i’ve been looking for for hooning on the way back from Ikea. It already looks good under all that cover. Beautiful propertions. If I could choose, i’d take the rims in the rear please.

  • Dafuq 4.0? I missed the 6.2 grunt sound. But to be honest, BMW N63B44 engine is the best. Produced the best sound as my friend has one X6 50i. Awesome sound.
