Mercedes-AMG GLC 63 4MATIC 2019-Present Photos, engines & full specs

At the time of launch, the AMG GLC 63 set the lap-record on the famous Nurburgring-Nordschleife (North Loop) track stopping the clock at 7.49.369 minutes and stealing the crown as the fastest SUV on the “Ring” from the Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio.

While the SUV market grew, Mercedes-Benz launched its answer with the GLC and then added some spice with the AMG versions. The top of the line is the 63 4Matic S version, which blasts the roads with 510 HP and a top speed of 175 MPH (280 KPH). The “lesser” GLC 63 version, without the “S” mark, is electronically limited to 155 MPH (250 KPH). Both of them have the same base engine, the well-known 4.0-liter V8 biturbo engine, but the S version has almost 35 more HP than the non-S. Both variants are equipped with the AMG Speedshift MCT 9G transmission. The suspension is pneumatically controlled with adaptive damping adjustments for a better roadholding and improved cornering speed.

Inside the cabin there is room for four passengers and trunk-space for over 500 liters, and the bucket-seats are a promise to hold their occupants on the fastest corners. The infotainment system has two large displays with 12.3” in front of the driver and 10.25 on the right, which will help the driver control the phone via Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, or to improve lap-times via the AMG dedicated app.
