Test Drive: Mercedes-Benz S 63 AMG | Mercedes-Benz Gallery

The S 63 AMG body measures 5,295 mm in length, 1,915 mm in width, and 1,500 mm in height.
The S 63 AMG cockpit features two 12.3-inch wide-screen displays arranged side-by-side.
Paddle shifters for gear changes are located behind the steering wheel.
Instead of the previous model's 7G-TRONIC torque converter, the new S 63 AMG employs a 7-speed MCT sport shift with a wet multi-plate clutch. It boasts performance comparable to a top-tier sports car, with 0-100 km/h acceleration in 4.4 seconds for the FR model and a flat 4 seconds for the 4MATIC model.
Executive seats, which can recline up to 43.5 degrees, are available as an option for chauffeur-driven use.
The "AMG sports suspension" is standard, featuring a camera in the front grille that scans the road surface. It optimizes damping characteristics just before impact to achieve a flat ride.
Switching the drive mode to Sport unleashes a more AMG-like exhaust note.
The tires fitted are 255/45R19 at the front and 285/40R19 at the rear.
The 5.5-liter V8 direct-injection twin-turbo M157 engine is a refined version of the one used in the previous S 63 AMG, but boasts an output of 585 ps (41 ps more than the predecessor) and a maximum torque of 900 Nm (100 Nm more).
