The upcoming Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe has been captured through the lenses of our European spy photographers for a while now, so it’s time for the spotlight to be shone on its meaner, more potent twin from Affalterbach, the Mercedes-AMG C 63 Coupe. The new-generation Teutonic two-door hot rod looks pumped up and ready to take on its sworn Munich rival, the BMW M4, square in the face.
The swoopy, elegant shape of the C-Class Coupe has been injected with a massive dose of steroids for this application. Modern AMG cues like the dual-bar grille, characteristic “A-wing” in the front bumper, wider arches, deeper side skirts and sizeable quad tailpipes all visible here, even under the heavy camouflage.
As with the sedan and estate variants, the C 63 Coupe will be powered by AMG’s new 4.0 litre twin-turbo V8 that produces 476 PS from 5,500 to 6,250 rpm and 650 Nm from 1,750 to 4,500 rpm, mated to an AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT seven-speed automatic transmission. Those with a penchant for extra power will want the more hardcore C 63 S that bumps output to 510 PS and 700 Nm.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Meh! Remove 2 doors from standard C class then take it as new model. Next time Mercedez may just take out one wheel to sell tricycle already lo?
This car is for those who got no money but want to showoff .
Now that they’re both turbocharged, it’s interesting to see how the V8 performs against the M4s 3 litre in-line 6.
And those looks… fantastic!
