SEPANG: Mercedes-Benz Malaysia has just launched a trio of cars to expand its current lineup of AMG performance vehicles at the Sepang International Circuit.

Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S 4MATIC+ - 01


The new additions to its AMG performance lineup start with the brutal looking Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S 4MATIC+ costing RM1,798,888 (on-the-road without insurance).

Next on the list is the sporty two-door Mercedes-AMG C 63 S Coupé, priced at RM820,888.

Lastly, the more conservative 4-door Mercedes-AMG C 63 S costs RM768,888.

The three cars are fully-imported and are equipped with a powerful 4.0-litre (3,982cc) twin-turbo V8 engine producing 510hp from 5,500 to
6,250rpm and 700Nm of torque from 2,000 to 4,500rpm

However, the GT 63 S 4MATIC+'s engine gets tuned up to 639hp from 5,500 to 6,500rpm and 900Nm of torque from 2,500 to 4,500rpm.

The engines are handbuilt in Affalterbach, Germany and are in accordance with the AMG's "one man, one engine" philosophy.

Power is managed by a nine-speed AMG Speedshift Multi-Clutch Technology 9G automatic transmission that allows the sedan to sprint from 0 to 100kph in 4.0 seconds with the coupe taking 3.9 seconds before both cars reach a top speed of 290kph.

The GT 63 S 4MATIC+, on the other hand, shaves the time down to 3.2 seconds and has a top speed of 315kph.

Furthermore, the new cars - like all vehicles from Mercedes-Benz Malaysia, are covered by a four-year warranty (two-year manufacturer and two-year in-country extended warranty) with unlimited mileage and Service24h Roadside Assistance service.

An extended Limited Warranty Programme for one or two-year plans are also available and comes with unlimited mileage as well.

The GT 63 S rolls on 21-inch AMG lightweight forged wheels that partially obscure the yellow-painted performance brake callipers and cross-drilled discs and have been further equipped with Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus for the multibeam LED headlights and sunroof.

The C 63 S sedan gets key features such as the 19-inch forged lightweight wheels with a cross-spoke design that partially hide the red callipers, panoramic sunroof, Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus and multibeam LED for the front headlights as well as power folding mirrors.

There is also a heads-up display as well as a touchpad controller to navigate through the menus on the 10.25-inch Media display or view the outside world from within the car via the 360-degree camera system while the driver gets a 12.3-inch full-digital instrument display.

With an analogue clock on the centre of the dashboard, entertainment is processed by the Burmester surround sound system that comes with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and Comand Online.

As for the Coupe variant, its list of equipment is very similar to the sedan but other than the lack of two extra doors in comparison, its 19-inch lightweight forged wheels have a five twin-spoke design and it also now features a safety belt feeder.
