If your name is Mercedes-Benz and you have an SUV-coupe, you must have a top-performance AMG version. After the carmaker did the mid-cycle facelift for the GLC Coupe, it also showed the AMG version. Nowadays AMG is a separate brand and its cars and SUVs are no longer called Mercedes-Benz, but Mercedes-AMG.
The exterior design for the revamped Mercedes-AMG GLC 63 Coupe has new LED headlights, which are better integrated into the overall look of the front end. Two huge air-scoops are in the front spoiler, under the bumper and the meshed front grille from the old model has been replaced with a more aggressive Panamericana grille, with vertical chromed lines. The differences don't stop here and on the rear a lip-spoiler may be seen on the trunk lid, above the massive four rectangular pipes integrated into the rear bumper, flanking a large diffuser.
But the most important modifications are under the hood. A massive twin-turbo V8 gasoline engine with 476 HP is offered on the GLC 63 and 510 HP are offered on the GLC 63S. The transmission is via an AMG MCT 9G, which can be used in different modes, including Sport and Sport+ but, if the driver wants, the transmission can also be switched to a manual mode. In this case, a shift-light indicator will lit on the instrument cluster when it is the right time to upshift or downshift.
