Ahead of its expected September debut at the Frankfurt motor
show, Big Motoring World reviews
the Mercedes C63 Coupé. The coupe will be the third variant in the new C63
performance car division to launch, following on from the saloon and estate
options already on sale.
Looks
From the front, it is clear that the Mercedes-AMG C63 Coupe
S will feature all the aggressive visual and aerodynamic elements of the C63
saloon and estate models. The front is characterised by large air intakes as
well as an aggressive bumper.
Elsewhere, it features massively flared wheel arches,
alongside a black sloping roof and a more aerodynamic front and rear fascia.
From the rear, the new C63 Coupe S features the same taillights as the
standard C-Class Coupe, but features an additional small carbon fibre boot
lid lip spoiler. AMG’s traditional quad exhaust pipes and a bold diffuser are
also included.
Differences
The saloon and coupé share the same driveline, rear-wheel
drive platform and electronic architecture, but there are differences. The C63
Coupé will get bespoke suspension tuning, revised elasto-kinematic properties,
a lower centre of gravity and specific camber rates. Another key development is
the adoption of electromechanical steering in place of the hydraulic set-up
used on the previous model. A mechanical locking differential will also be
included as standard.
Power
Powering the C63 Coupe S will be the same 4.0-litre
twin-turbocharged V8 engine as the sedan and estate models. The entry level 90
degree V8, whose turbochargers are mounted between the cylinder banks for
optimal packaging, is set to deliver 469bhp and 479lb ft of torque. In the
range-topping C63 S Coupé you get some serious added boost pressure, as well as
other power-enhancing tweaks, output will rise to an impressive 503bhp and
516lb ft.
