Is the new Mercadas C63s still an amg?

 

The Mercadas e performance C63s is a stunning example of how electric power can enhance the driving experience of a sports car. In this blog post, I will share my impressions of the car's sound and answer the question: is it still a true AMG?

The first thing that strikes you when you start the car is the silence. Unlike the previous models, the e performance C63s does not have a roaring V8 engine under the hood. Instead, it has a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine paired with an electric motor that delivers a combined output of 650 horsepower and 900 Nm of torque.

But don't let the silence fool you. The car still has a distinctive sound that reflects its sporty character. The Mercadas engineers have developed a sound system that uses speakers and actuators to create a realistic and immersive acoustic feedback. The sound varies depending on the driving mode, from a subtle hum in Comfort mode to a powerful roar in Sport+ mode. You can also customize the sound using the MBUX infotainment system.

The sound of the e performance C63s is not just for show. It also helps you feel the car's performance and responsiveness. The electric motor provides instant torque and acceleration, while the four-cylinder engine kicks in at higher speeds to boost the power. The car can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.5 seconds and reach a top speed of 290 km/h.

So, is the e performance C63s still a true AMG? I would say yes. The car retains the DNA of the AMG brand: high performance, dynamic handling, and emotional appeal. The electric power does not compromise the car's identity, but rather enhances it with new possibilities and sensations. The e performance C63s is a car that will make you feel alive and exhilarated every time you drive it.
