AMG CLE 63 Is Going Back To Mercedes’ V8 Roots

Giancarlo Perlas May 11, 2024

The Mercedes-AMG CLE 63 is ditching its earlier plug-in hybrid blueprint in favor of a mild-hybrid V8. The shift in powertrain comes hot on the heels of Mercedes’ earlier decision to give more priority to its internal combustion engine units (ICE) and postpone its electrification goals beyond 2030. Citing unnamed senior officials from Mercedes-Benz, Autocar claimed the Mercedes-AMG CLE 63 coupe and convertible will be adopting a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine. This will be a major departure from its maker’s original plan to equip the high-performance car with a plug-in hybrid power unit copying the AMG C 63 and AMG GLC 63. Despite the V8 configuration’s lower output at 585… Continue Reading »

Giancarlo Perlas March 10, 2024

Recent spy shots of what appears to be a prototype of a next-generation Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door suggest sweeping changes coming into the range. The sighting also hints that the model may be heading to full electrification. The spy photos here may have deviated from the usual zebra-patterned camouflage that we have been accustomed to when it comes to Mercedes-Benz prototypes, but the close resemblance of the unit to the current AMG GT 4-Door is undeniable. The one we’re looking at here, however, only appears to be longer than the current model and does bear some striking similarities with the contours of the Vision AMG concept car that we witnessed back… Continue Reading »

Facelifted Mercedes-AMG A35 Sedan Spied During Road Test

Giancarlo Perlas January 11, 2024

New Mercedes-AMG A35 Sedan spy shots reveal major cosmetic updates coming up in the entry-level high-performance variant of the A-Class range. The car appears to be getting ready to transition from its “AMG lite” identity to a full-fledged AMG. Since its unveiling, the A35 has always been denied the Panamericana grille that has defined all other AMG vehicles. Instead of the vertical slats, the high-performance A-Class starter had to settle with a twin-louver, vertical grille styling. This is coupled with subtle updates on the headlamps, taillights, and bumpers. The AMG A35 Sedan, however, is keeping its other signature features. The spy photos from Carscoops show the vehicle keeping its dual… Continue Reading »

One tuner in Germany just unveiled a new version of the Mercedes-AMG G63 that we never knew we have always wanted. Some even think that this convertible rendition of the iconic G-Class should’ve been the direction that Maybach went for instead of going for the mixed-bag Landaulet variant. Exterior The Mercedes-AMG G63 convertible in question is the work of Refined Marques. Its canvas is a two-door G-Class with panels sourced from the modern-day AMG G63. The top is cut off in favor of a red vinyl soft roof and the rear is equipped with custom suicide doors. According to the specialist, the original plan was to go for regular door… Continue Reading »
