Under the hood of the exquisite AMG creation, we will find the German company’s new twin-turbo 5.5 liter V8. This means that the driver will get to play with 544 hp and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm), while the fuel consumption and CO2 emissions will stand at an impressive level for the vehicle’s class.
However, there will always be customers that have a need for even more power. This is why. Mercedes will also offer an optional AMG Performance Package, which will bring the game to 571 hp and 664 lb-ft (900 Nm). The power will be sent to the rear axle with the help of the new seven-speed AMG Speedshift automatic transmission.
The vehicle will be dressed in an AMG body kit that will include more aggressive rear and front fascias, and side skirts, while riding on generously-sized AMG wheels.
As we are talking about one of Mercedes’ performance-orientate models, the interior will also discreetly remind passengers that the car means (more than just) business.
The German automaker needs to deliver nothing short of a superlative-packed vehicle (and we’re sure that it will), as the segment the car is included in is one of the fastest growing on the market, with competition becoming incredibly fierce.
