Introducing the 2024 Mercedes-AMG C63 S E Performance PHEV sedan at Mercedes-Benz of New London. This advanced luxury vehicle has a sporty appearance, an impressive powertrain, and modern features designed for the ultimate driving experience from Old Saybrook to Norwich, CT.
What's powering this incredible new PHEV sedan?
The heart of this five-passenger sedan is a handcrafted AMG turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four engine with electrically assisted exhaust gas turbocharging. It produces 469 horsepower and 402 pound-feet of torque. An AC motor, backed by a 4.8-kWh lithium-ion battery pack and a 3.7-kW onboard charger, add 201 horsepower and 236 pound-feet of torque. The combined output is an impressive 671 horsepower and 752 pound-feet of torque.
The C63 S E Performance has an AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel-drive system featuring fully variable torque distribution. It pairs with a nine-speed automatic transmission supporting the engine at the front and a two-speed automatic supporting the electric motor at the rear axle. Branford, CT, car buyers will appreciate how this powerful setup delivers acceleration from 0 to 60 mph in approximately 3.0 seconds, with a top speed of 174 mph.
How does the new Mercedes-AMG C63 S E Performance drive?
AMG Dynamic Select provides eight drive modes for a customizable driving experience. These include Electric Drive Program, which disables the gas engine and allows for speeds up to 81 mph using electric power alone. Race mode uses fully variable rear-axle steering, while Individual mode allows customized driving.
You'll navigate corners and curves with ease and agility thanks to improved front-to-rear weight distribution, rear-axle steering, and nicely weighted wheels.
The additional rear powertrain adds about 700 pounds of extra weight, mostly felt when cornering at higher speeds and when braking, shifting most of the burden to the 19- or 20-inch Michelin Pilot Sport 4S summer tires. The pedal that controls the six-piston front and single-piston rear brakes feels strong and responsive under your foot.
