Mercedes-Benz has officially announced the launch of the mid-cycle facelift models for the AMG GLC63 series. As usual, the new lineup is divided into three models: the GLC63, GLC63 Coupe SUV, and GLC63 S Coupe SUV. Below is a detailed introduction to these three models: 1. Exterior Design: The new models are based on the mid-cycle facelift GLC63 and its Coupe SUV variant. The front fascia features AMG's signature vertical slats in a more flattened grille, with a contour closer to a hexagonal structure. The headlight assemblies on both sides incorporate sharp C-shaped LED daytime running lights, enhancing the technological appeal. Additionally, the front bumper adopts a popular three-section design, exuding a sporty and aggressive stance. The side profile remains largely unchanged, with AMG sport package highlights including black mirror caps, black alloy wheels, and gold brake calipers, all contributing to a striking and dynamic appearance. At the rear, the taillights have been updated with revised internal lighting elements, featuring a flat dual-ring design similar to the new GLC, which complements the quad exhaust tips on the rear bumper for a surprisingly harmonious effect. 2. Interior: The cabin sees minimal changes, with only an upgrade to the central display screen size. Signature elements of the GLC63 series, such as extensive carbon fiber trim, a flat-bottomed Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel with 3 and 9 o'clock markers, and highly bolstered sport seats, remain present. 3. Powertrain: The updated GLC63 series continues to be powered by a 4.0-liter V8 biturbo engine. The standard version delivers 476 horsepower, while the S variant boasts 510 horsepower. Both come standard with a 9-speed automatic transmission and the 4Matic+ all-wheel-drive system, achieving 0-100 km/h acceleration in 4.0 seconds and 3.8 seconds, respectively.
As a car enthusiast, I have always been a fan of the Mercedes-AMG V8 biturbo engine, which shines in multiple high-performance models. The AMG GT series is my favorite choice for sports cars, such as the GT S or GT C. That 4.0L V8 engine delivers over 500 horsepower, accelerating from 0-100 km/h in just 3.8 seconds, with turbo response that is incredibly sharp, providing an exhilarating driving experience with strong acceleration. The E63 S AMG, as a practical sports car, combines a sedan's appearance with the ability to instantly accelerate to high speeds. Meanwhile, the S63 AMG blends luxury with raw power, offering a smooth driving experience that I find addictive. In the SUV segment, the G63 AMG, despite its heavy body, doesn’t compromise on engine power, climbing slopes effortlessly during off-road adventures. These models share the common feature of advanced turbo lag reduction technology, delivering a deep yet well-controlled sound during daily driving. If you're obsessed with speed, the GT and E63 are my top recommendations, as they strike a perfect balance between city commuting and track excitement.
