More wings, more power. A few months out from the debut of the all-new A-Class hatchback, Mercedes-Benz pulled the sheet off its first hot iteration: The AMG A35. Its online debut was about two weeks ahead of its in-person debut at the Paris Motor Show – but now we finally get to see the hot hatch for the first time in the sheet metal. Update: ⠀ See How The Mercedes-AMG A35 Performs In Acceleration Test Mercedes-AMG A35 Sedan Spied Looking Sharp Of course, this feisty five-door looks substantially more aggressive than the standard A-Class. Some of the dead design giveaways include the aggressive front fascia with splitters aplenty, the blacked-out, high-spoke wheels, dat massive wing out back, and the bold blue paint job with grey accents, a sharp contrast from the yellow debut photos.But the new A35 isn't just a looker – it's more powerful, too.

603 AMG horsepower to make sure your kids will never be late for school. It was a little over three months ago when Mercedes-AMG took the wraps off the E63 Sedan and now the skilled folks from Affalterbach are ready to introduce the more practical wagon body style. Just like the sedan, it comes exclusively with a 4Matic all-wheel drive setup, but even so it’s still a tail-happy car once you enable the Drift Mode. To do that, you’ll have to turn off ESP, put the gearbox in manual mode, and enable the Race setting to effectively transform the E63 S Wagon into a pure rear-wheel-drive car. Its heart and soul is the familiar biturbo 4.0-liter V8 engine with 603 horsepower (450 kilowatts) and 627 pound feet (850 Newton-meters) of torque delivered to the road exclusively via a nine-speed, dual-clutch automatic transmission. Variable torque distribution and an electronically controlled rear limited slip differential are part of the standard equipment, as … [Read more...] about 2018 Mercedes-AMG E63 S Wagon Is For The Parent Who’s Always Late

Go all out and you'll hit the magical 200-mph mark. With the 2017 Geneva Motor Show fast-approaching, tuners are joining automakers in the rollout of new products meant to lure in more customers. Case in point, Brabus is ready to introduce one lean and mean convertible based on the already very potent C63 S.  The highlight of the aftermarket package resides underneath the hood where AMG’s biturbo V8 4.0-liter engine has been taken from the series 510 hp (375 kW) to 650 hp (478 kW), while torque has been bumped from 700 Nm (516 lb-ft) to a massive 820 Nm (604 lb-ft). With the extra muscle in place, the C63 S Cabriolet will run from 0 to 62 mph (100 kph) in as little as 3.7 seconds, so it’s going to be 0.4s quicker than the regular model. Take it to the track or on one of the remaining unrestricted sections of the German Autobahn and you’ll be able to hit 200 mph (320 kph) thanks to a loosened up electronic top speed limiter. To better reflect … [Read more...] about Mercedes-AMG C63 S Cabriolet by Brabus heading to Geneva with 650 hp

Edition 50, Night, and Ocean Blue Editions bring several cosmetic revisions both inside and out. After giving the SLC and SL roadsters the special treatment, Mercedes-AMG is at it again with a new fancy version of yet another roadster. This time around, it’s the recently launched GT C Roadster set to be offered in an “Edition 50” flavor to mark half a century of Affalterbach heritage. The plan is to make only 500 cars scheduled to be distributed all over the world in two bespoke colors: designo graphite grey magno and designo cashmere white magno. Rather peculiar names, right? To further set it apart from the regular model, AMG is applying some black chrome accents noticeable on the front splitter, the Panamericana grille, the fins on the side air outlets in the front wings, as well as on the side skirts and at the back on the diffuser and exhaust tips. Rounding off the exterior tweaks are the unique AMG forged wheels featuring a similar … [Read more...] about Mercedes-AMG spices up range with trio of special editions

The GT range expands beyond coupes and convertibles. This is our first glimpse of the new concept car that Mercedes-AMG will reveal next week at the Geneva Motor Show. As we expected, AMG confirms it will be a four-door addition to the existing GT range. Revealed: Mercedes-AMG GT Concept is the hybrid sports car for the whole family The concept appears to have the same rounded rump and sloping rear window as the GT coupe, but with an elongated body that can fit four doors instead of just two. In typical show-car fashion, the fenders are pushed way out from the body to accommodate enormous, intricately designed wheels. A racy center-exit exhaust and an aggressive diffuser adorn the car’s tail. And up front, traditional mirrors have been nixed in favor of tiny cameras mounted on ultra-skinny arms emerging from the car’s fenders.The new car will likely reach European dealerships by 2018 and is rumored to be called the GT4. As in the existing coupe and … [Read more...] about Mercedes-AMG GT Concept teases a four-door sports car
