AMG's next GLC 63 will downsize to a 4-cylinder but will offer even more power thanks to electrification.
The 4-cylinder is an upgraded version of the 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-4 found in AMG's current crop of compact cars. Thanks to the addition of an electric-aided turbocharger, output from the engine will be boosted to 442 hp for the GLC 63. There will also be an electric motor integrated with the engine in mild-hybrid configuration to power ancillary features, as well as serve as a starter motor.
On top of all this, there will be a much more powerful motor at the rear axle to take combined output to a maximum 643 hp. This rear motor will be mated to its own 2-speed transmission. A battery of 6.1 kilowatt-hours of capacity will ensure a small electric range will be possible.
