2023 Mercedes-AMG S63 E Performance – V8 PHEV; 802 PS, 1,430 Nm, 33 km EV range; 0-100 km/h in 3.3s
Having more in common with the former, the S63’s powertrain consists of a 4.0 litre V8 that sits on active engine mounts and has two twin-scroll turbochargers in the hot inner-V for 612 PS from 5,500 to 6,500 rpm and 900 Nm of torque from 2,500 to 4,500 rpm.
While the internal combustion engine and electric drive units appear to be kept isolated from one another, they are actually linked by the all-wheel drive system by an additional prop shaft and clutch located behind the automatic transmission. This allows power from both drive units to be transferred to the front wheels when required, like in the event of slip at the rear axle.
Equally as complex as the powertrain is the number of driving parameters available to the driver. Within the AMG Dynamic Select system, there are seven drive modes to cycle through, including Electric, Comfort, Battery Hold, Sport, Sport+, Slippery and Individual. Additionally, there are four stages of recuperation and three different options in the AMG Dynamics system to play with.
The S63’s chassis also features an aluminium stabiliser under the V8 and a cross-brace on the suspension mounting points to further stiffen the bodyshell structure. As for the rear, diagonal struts made from aluminium in the underbody are said increase driving precision, while the HPB sits in a specific load compart recess made of lightweight fibre-reinforced plastic that also contributes to overall rigidity.
