Official: 2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG, now with 4Matic
Muamer Hodzic January 10, 2013Dear BenzInsider readers, we are proud to present to you the new 2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG 4Matics. This mean looking machine hasn’t just changed visually, as we will discover soon. It’s powered by a twin turbocharged 5.5 liter V8 boasting 550 hp and 531 lb-ft of torque as well as an all-new AMG-engineered all-wheel drive system.
If that’s somehow not good enough, the S-Model rockets from zero to 60 in a scant 3.5 seconds on a wave of 577 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque. Oh, and it comes in a wagon, too.

As you’ll see in the table above, the E 63 AMG Saloon version goes from 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in just 4.2 seconds, while the 4Matic version does the same sprint in only 3.7 seconds (3.8 for the estate). The S-Model on the other hand is even faster from 0 to 100 km/h, completing it in only 3.6 seconds for the saloon and 3.7 seconds for the estate. As always, the top speed is electronically limited to 155 mph, but if you opt for the AMG Performance Package, then you’ll see and increase in the limited to 186 mph.
Even with the improvements in performance, all the E63 AMG 4MATIC models maintain a low fuel consumption with its 5.5-liter V8 Biturbo engine while delivering high efficiency. You will have more of the 2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG 4MATIC as it would take its debut in the Detroit Auto Show this month.
