Among those upcoming models there are the CLS and the CLS Shooting Brake, including their AMG versions, cars which will receive their mid-cycle refresh in about six months.

Here we have a Mercedes-Benz CLS in its 63 AMG version that the Stuttgart manufacturer will only slightly modify in terms of exterior design.

We are talking about a new front apron, with lines inspired from the E 63 AMG, while the rear bumper will adopt a slightly different shape which includes two side gills, like on the A 45 and CLA 45 AMG.

The interior will be quite a bit more different though, as the Comand screen will switch to a free-floating one that's no longer encapsulated into the dashboard.

Engine-wise, we're expecting the same M157 engine in two versions of power, one with 557 hp and 720 Nm (531 lb ft) of torque and the S-Model with 585 hp and 800 Nm (590 lb ft) of torque, both paired with a 7-speed multi-clutch automatic transmission.
