What are the differences between the C43 and C63?
1 Answers
The C43 and C63 have different engines. The AMG C43 Coupe model features newly added aerodynamic deflectors on both sides of the lower front grille, while its taillight design remains consistent with the AMG C63 model. Additionally, it adopts round quad exhaust pipes. The AMG C63 Coupe has an enlarged front grille area, and its latest LED headlights are closer in design to those of the new E-Class. 63 Series Engine: The 63 series is a classic powered by the M177, a V8 biturbo engine, hand-assembled with a technician's signature. The name '63' originates from the 6.3-liter naturally aspirated V8 racing engine (the previous generation's production version was a 6.2-liter naturally aspirated engine, also inheriting the '63' designation). Although this generation's 4.0-liter biturbo engine has a reduced displacement, it still maintains the benchmark tractor-like distinctive exhaust note. 45 Series Engine: The 45 series features compact models equipped with the 2.0T turbocharged M133 transverse engine, named for its extreme power-to-displacement ratio and 450 Nm of torque, achieving initial acceleration performance close to that of the 63 series. Similarly, these hand-assembled engines come with a plaque, offering affordability without compromise. The 43 series uses the M256 V6 biturbo engine. Although its power output surpasses the 45 series, its larger vehicle size and lower power-to-weight ratio result in the weakest acceleration performance. It lacks the 'one man, one engine' hand-assembly process and is tuned conservatively. Additionally, being produced alongside the standard international models, it largely represents the most entry-level AMG model.
