Today’s video from the DRIVE channel not only involves a look at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, but also a review of the new Mercedes-Benz E 63 AMG by Mr Chris Harris.
Propulsion comes courtesy of the company’s 5.5-litre bi-turbo V8 unit, which now produces 410 kW (557 hp) and 720 Nm of torque. Mated to the AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 7-speed transmission, which features four different modes as well as a Race Start function with automatic double-declutching, the E 63 cracks 100 km/h in 4.2 seconds, while top speed is sadly limited to 250 km/h.
If you don’t want to wait you can skip straight to 5m 42s, but you’d be missing a look around the new Porsche 911 GT3 if you did.
