This 791-hp luxury sedan uses electrification to extend the life of the internal-combustion engine.
It’s a time of transition at Mercedes-Benz. The venerable automaker is looking toward an electric future with EVs like the EQS, while introducing updated versions of its traditional internal-combustion models like the S-Class. The 2024 Mercedes-AMG S63 E Performance bridges the gap.
With its graceful, smooth body lines interrupted only by pop-out door handles, this is still very much an S-Class. The front fascia has grown larger air intakes, the exhaust tips now protrude more obviously from the rear bumper, and there are sportier AMG-specific wheel designs. But Mercedes didn’t go all “Fast and Furious” here.A significant departure from S-Class orthodoxy can be found at the front, though.
The AMG S63 E Performance also has the same array of driver-assist features as other S-Class models. The list includes adaptive cruise control, traffic sign recognition, Active Steering Assist , lane keep assist, lane change assist, automatic emergency braking, rear cross-traffic alert, and a hazard-warning function that uses the ambient lighting to warn occupants of oncoming vehicles when exiting the car.
All of these features combine to create a spectacular breadth of capability. In electric mode at moderate speeds, the S63 is quiet and comfortable. It’s perfectly capable of playing the traditional luxury car role of a living room on wheels. Once we turned off California’s Pacific Coast Highway, switched to a sportier driving mode, and headed into the hills of Malibu, the car’s character completely changed.
