Mercedes launches the S63 AMG sedan for Rs. 2.53 cr

Mercedes-AMG has launched the S63 Sedan following the S63 AMG Coupe, the G63 AMG and the S600 Coupe in India this month. Mercedes has priced the AMG version of the 4 door sedan at Rs. 2.53 crore (ex-showroom Bangalore).

At heart of the S63 AMG will be a 5.5 litre, V8 biturbo from AMG that produces 585hp and 900Nm of torque. The result of that is a 4 door limousine that slingshots from a 0-100kmph in 4.4 seconds mated to an AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 7-speed sports transmission. With a lightweight construction and performance set as priority, maybe we should talk about fuel economy some other time.

Eberhard Kern, Managing Director & CEO, Mercedes-Benz India commented, “The new AMG V8 flagship model in the S-Class is a unique package that has no match in the competitive segment. Path breaking technology like MAGIC BODY CONTROL and a gamut of high-end features makes the Mercedes-AMG S 63 one of the most desirable luxury sedans in our range.”

To keep the car planted on to the ground while moving, Mercedes has taken a leaf out of the Harry Potter novels with what they call “Magic Body Control” feature fitted at the sports suspension from AMG. For that measly price tag, you also get Heads up display, Night View Assist Plus, Seat Comfort Package, COMAND Online, AMG sports exhaust system and many more things. To dampen the screams of the horrified passengers, a 1540 watt Burmester high-end 3D surround sound system is offered as an option.
