Mercedes-AMG revealed the 2006 E 63 AMG at the 2006 New York
International Auto Show. The E 63 AMG is powered by a naturally
aspirated AMG V8-engine, producing a maximum output of 514 bhp
and a maximum torque of 465 lb-ft from a displacement of 6.3
litres.
The Mercedes-Benz E 63 AMG also benefits from all the model
enhancements featured on the same-generation E-Class. For example
the occupant protection system PRE-SAFE, the new Intelligent
Light System or the new adaptive brake lights. Developed completely
independently by AMG, the 6-3-liter V8-engine is the world’s
only power unit to combine the high-revving concept with a large
displacement – the result is around 20 percent more torque
than from comparable engines in this output class. In line with
Mercedes-AMG tradition, the E 63 AMG's engine is hand-built
in the AMG engine workshops on the "one man, one engine"
principle. Thus equipped, the E 63 AMG Saloon accelerates from
zero to 62 mph in 4.5 seconds. The top speed is electronically
limited to 155 mph.
