Like the all-new S63 AMG E-Performance, Mercedes-AMG is expected to offer the E63 with several recuperation modes, and several distinct AMG Dynamic Select driving modes. This includes Battery Hold, Comfort, Electric, Individual, Slippery, Sport, and Sport Plus.
It seems the next-generation E63 will be more than a match for the BMW M5. The AMG’s Bavarian rival will reportedly borrow its 700-hp V8 hybrid engine from the XM SUV. The new E63 will almost certainly be faster than its predecessor, but whether it’s a match for its historic rival remains to be seen.
The midsize Mercedes-AMG should prove fun in the corners, thanks to double-wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension. The vehicle will be underpinned by an updated iteration of the automaker’s Modular Rear Architecture platform, currently used on the latest C-Class and S-Class models.
