Is the E63 a real AMG?

The 2021 Mercedes-AMG E63 S sedan is the materialization of pure affluence crossed with rapturous performance. It’s based on the regular Mercedes-Benz E-class, but the E63 S is actually a more powerful version of the AMG E53.

Is an E63 faster than a C63?

However, the AMG® E 63 S has over 100 more hp than the C-Class trim. This difference is apparent in the performance of each vehicle as well. While the AMG® C 63 S Sedan has a speedy 3.8 acceleration from 0 to 60 miles per hour, the AMG® E 63 S Sedan is faster yet with a 3.3-second acceleration.

What is faster C63 or E63?

The victor is unsurprisingly the E, but it’s shocking to see just how much faster it is. The E63 gets a better launch, then sets about making the C63 look even more pedestrian by putting away noticeably. That’s what an extra 100bhp and a trick all-wheel drive system will do for you…

How do you compare the E63 to the E55?

Have had the E63 two weeks, 1500 miles. These are very different cars. Neither is clearly better, just different. The E55 was the “bad boy” in the Mercedes lineup. Tons of “right now” torque, a little rough around the edges for a Mercedes (supercharger noise, belt chirping, on/off power delivery).

How good is the Mercedes Benz E63?

A more interesting test was to lock the car in 2nd gear in the manual mode, and do a 0-60 all in second gear – no shifting- and with all that torque, it could do this in 4.7 seconds!! This car achieved its spectacular performance through brute torque (which I like), and a reasonable 5 speed gearbox. The E63 is a far more “refined” vehicle.

Does the E63 feel like a Lexus?

So much so, that the E63 has a sort of Lexus feel – ie. exceptional engineeering, finesse, execution, but lacks a certain character. It handles at least as well as the E55, and is equally fast, but it does not feel better in the process – just different. Nevertheless, with about 1000 miles on it, I had no problem doing 0-60 in 4.1-4.2 seconds.
