MERCEDES- AMG E 63 S 4MATIC+

The Mercedes- AMG E 63 S 4Matic+ sedan that’s as much at home on a race circuit as it is on the road. It boasts a 603-horsepower, 4.0-litre twin-turbo — the most powerful engine ever installed in an E- Class. With a 3.4-second time to 100 km/h, the new business sedan, says Mercedes, is at the top of its class. The new AMG Performanc­e 4Matic+ AWD system combines the advantages of various drive configurat­ions. Torque distributi­on on the front and rear axles, previously strongly rear biased, is fully variable for the first time.

MERCEDES- AMG GT C ROADSTER

The Mercedes- AMG GT C Roadster brings all the excitement of driving a high- performanc­e sports car to the joy of driving a convertibl­e. Literally a breath of fresh air, the new Roadster gets its power from a handcrafte­d AMG 4.0- litre twin- turbo V8 with dry- sump lubricatio­n. The GT C borrows liberally from the AMG GT R’s technical refinement­s to deliver 550 horsepower and 502 pound- feet of torque. And, when the sunshine beckons, the fabric roof opens and closes in approximat­ely 11 seconds at speeds of up to 50 km/h.

MERCEDES- AMG GT R

The Mercedes-AMG GT R was designed as a racetrack- ready sports car off the showroom floor, with a striking design and adrenalin- pumping performanc­e dynamics to match. Its handcrafte­d AMG 4.0-litre, twin-turbo V8 grinds out 577 horsepower and 516 pound- feet of torque, and new AMG traction control with nine input levels is literally at your fingertips in the centre console. The motorsport­s technology goes beyond just the engine, too. Active rear- axle steering turns up to 1.5 degrees of toe angle for increased cornering response and high-speed stability.
