This power plant of eight cylinders, known internally as the M157, enjoy a mix of innovative high technology components such as fuel injection spray fuel injection with piezo-electric tour, an aluminum housing full of four-valve technology with adjustable camshaft, air / water intercooling, the generator management and Eco start / stop system. With a displacement of 5,461 cc eight-cylinder engine develops a maximum power of 518 hp and torque of 516 lb-ft. In collaboration with the AMG performance option, the numbers of up to 550 horsepower and 590 lb-ft.

Improvements in output and torque that comes with the AMG performance was mainly attributable to an increase in maximum boost pressure of 14.5 to 18.8 psi. Visible differentiation is provided by a carbon fiber hood, AMG performance steering wheel with Alcantara black side grips, brake calipers painted in red and carbon fiber trunk lid spoiler.
AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 7-speed sports transmission helps to save fuel

This new command allows excellent maneuverability in turns while helping to reduce fuel consumption when the electric assist system only consumes power when the vehicle is actually managed.
Besides the 3-stage ESP ® with sports mode, the AMG Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG with high performance disc brake with two-piece front.
An even more powerful, 40 percent lighter AMG high-performance ceramic brake option is available in double special order. optimum bond between permission for new AMG 19-inch 10-spoke with 255/35 R19 front and 285/30 R19 rear.

If the driver ignores these warnings and is dangerously close to the vehicle in the left lane, Active Blind Spot Assist failure to apply the braking force on the rear wheel on the opposite side of the vehicle, controlled 3-stage ESP ®, yaw movement is created, which corrects the 'car on the road.
Active Lane Keeping Assist also includes 3-stage ESP ® can be activated when the driver inadvertently washed up over the solid line to the right or the left. In this case the focus of Lane Keeping Assist front and rear wheel brakes to prevent vehicle crossing the line. Display panel alerts the driver at the same time. If the signs are broken cross lane, the system controls the power generator on the wheel, which produces vibrations, and short periods of time - a discreet but effective guide countersteer immediately. Before the brake system is missing, always steering wheel vibrates a warning.
