The new bonnet with its prominent power domes conceals the independently developed amg 6. 3-litre v8 engine, which develops a fulminating 336 kw/457 hp at 6800 rpm from a displacement of 6208 cubic centimetres. In this respect the c63 amg comes very close to the 470 or so horsepower delivered by the amg c-class racing touring car in the dtm series. This high output also benefits the power-to-weight ratio, which is a very favourable 3.
The new c63 goes beyond the conventions that have defined each and every amg model for the good part of the past decade, adding a welcome degree of finesse to the driving experience. But that's not to say the c63 lacks any of the unadulterated performance muscle we have come to expect from mercedes-benz's storied performance-car division. It still does the old point-and-squirt routine as well as any rival. In fact, amg's entry-level model is now more rapid than ever, and it gets to 100 kph (62 mph) in 4.
