High-Perf Luxury Sedan – Mass. Price Tag in Europe
Manufacturing of the Mercedes-AMG S63 E Performance is now in progress, and wealthy consumers can place an order for this lavish supercar. As could be predicted, the newest edition of the S-Class series comes with an imposing cost; Europeans should be ready to spend €208,392.80 (roughly $227,220) plus extras.
That hefty sum of money could buy you a used Bentley Flying Spur for almost the same amount and it is probably more prestigious than its Mercedes-AMG cousin. Nevertheless, the S63’s lavishness and concentration to particulars ought to be supposed to reimburse its price token. Before we go deeper into what it entails, let’s take a glance at its options.
Exterior modifications include the AMG Carbon Kit (around $6,356), Night Package (around $1,230), 21-inch AMG Forged Wheels (approximately $4,150), darkened AMG Grill (roughly $580), and a Panoramic Sunroof (estimated at $2,110).
Other desirable choices include Nappa skin AMG seating (approx. $450), AMG ceramic high-power brakes (approx. $9,730), and the AMG Driver’s Bundle (approx. $2,465). This last option increases the peak speed from 155 mph to 180 mph.
When it comes to the Mercedes-Benz S63, the price tag is no joke. This luxury vehicle will cost more than $250,000 when fully equipped. But even the “base” model is well-stocked with features. Included as standard are a Burmester 3D Surround Sound system with Dolby Atmos, active ambient lighting, 20-inch wheels, various driver safety assists, pre-entry climate control, and much more.
Unveiled in the year prior, the incredible AMG S63 made its debut as the most potent S-Class till date due to an electrified 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 powerhouse, which makes a combined output of 791 HP and an immense 1,055 lb-ft of torque. The performance is outstanding, with its bulk weight of 5,720 pounds allowing it to reach 60 mph in merely 3.3 seconds.
According to Mercedes, the S63 is expected to have an overall electric range (OER) of 20.5 miles upon its release in the United States. Despite this, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) evaluations tend to provide outcomes that reflect real-world usage rather than an idealistic estimation.
In spite of its performance-focussed characteristics, the Mercedes S63 has been acknowledged to provide an excellent balance between uncompromising comfort and nimbleness. Air suspending and AMG Energetic Ride Regulation come as standard equipment, coupled with active rear axle direction. As a tribute to the release of this fancy, up-powered transport, Mercedes has created a rollout edition.
The Edition 1 features 21-inch forged wheels, a vibrant Manufaktur Alpine Grey coating, and Nappa leather with red contrast stitching. Its exterior embellishments are done in either dark chrome or a high-gloss black finish, which complements the shiny black-chromed AMG tailpipes. Red brake calipers and an AMG-decorated silver-chrome fuel filler cap further add unique touches to the car’s look.
This model also receives a custom AMG indoor car cover featuring a unique “Edition 1” pattern.
On the inside, the interior is lavished in black leather coupled with a stimulating red stitching. Enhancing this further are the sporty touches created by the black carbon fiber trim. As assumed, the distinct Edition 1 logo can be identified on the center console, demonstrating the uniqueness of this particular S63 model.
When it comes right down to it, the outlay of $250,000 on the AMG S63 E undoubtedly grants a load of car. It’s not only rapid and deluxe compared to its counterparts from the Fatherland, but its tech offerings challenge both that of the Rolls-Royce Ghost and Bentley Flying Spur. However, the British contenders can still hold their own with a presentation of elevated perceived excellence and exclusive respectability. All in all, spending that sum on the exceptional performance of the AMG S63 E is truly fortuitous.
It is likely US pricing for the forthcoming S63 E Performance will be cheaper than in Europe when it makes a debut this year. For example, the current C43 AMG has been priced higher in the old continent compared to its cost in America that begins only just under $60,000.
