At last, the new Mercedes-AMG S63 has landed… now with a hybrid twist!

Not just an S63, this is now the S63 E-Peformance. It’s the latter bit that hints towards the power of this German luxury machine.

A familiar 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine sits under the bonnet, however it's now also paired up with an electric motor at the rear axle. It’s a similar setup to the latest AMG GT 4-Door, however here the two combine to produce 802hp and 1,430Nm of torque! The result? A claimed 0-60mph time of 3.3 seconds, and an impressive 180mph top speed.

As a result of all the batteries and the motor though, weight is up too - with the new S63 tipping the scales at a whopping 2,520kg. Gulp.

There are a few subtle AMG tweaks to the S63. Along with a new grille, it gets AMG-specific wheels and an intimidating quad-exit exhaust pipe that’s a dead giveaway to the performance hiding underneath the skin.

Inside, it’s as luxurious as any S-Class should be - albeit with an AMG steering wheel and some new displays to add that performance touch.

The price is big though, starting at £186,015. A heavy price to pay, or a worthwhile premium? Stick with Mat to find out!
