For a car that is heavier than the V12 S-Class, you’ll need to pay nearly EUR220,000
Since Mercedes-AMG’s launch of the GT 63 S E Performance in August 2013, we knew that the plug-in hybrid liftback would be very expensive. We are still shocked to learn the sticker price the Affalterbach boys and girls have put on their most powerful production vehicle, other than the One Hypercar. Math starts at a staggering EUR196,897. This is what Germany refers to as a “base price”.
The car can be ordered with a long name for EUR21,777. The five-door PHEV with supercar power costs just EUR218,674 in Germany. This sum is approximately EUR 5,800 less than the Mercedes-Maybach , which includes the V12 engine. Although we all know that the models are different, it is still fascinating to see that the GT 63 S E Performance costs approximately the same as the absolute flagship car from Daimler Mercedes-Benz. AMG Green Hell Magno is the Edition… edition. It rides on 21-inch forged wheels with five Y-spoke designs finished in black. The Edition… edition comes standard with the AMG Night Package II and AMG Night Package II.
Mercedes will include the Aerodynamics, Exterior Carbon, Panorama Roof, Illuminated Door Sill Plates, Nappa Leather with a Two-Tone Look, as well as Nappa leather for that amount of money. For a sportier look, the GT 63 S E Performance Edition gets many black piano-lacquer accents that can be swapped with carbon fiber. The inside features an “Edition” badge.
Technical specifications are amazing. The 831 horsepower is a result of a twin-turbo, 4.0-liter V8 engine that works with an electric motor. AWD-equipped hybrid machines can produce up to 1,084 pound feet (1,470 Newton-meters), of power and can accelerate to 62 mph (100 km/h), in just 2.9 seconds. This is a good result for a vehicle that weighs 2,380 kg (5,247 lbs). The vehicle is a little heavier than the Maybach S680, which we previously mentioned. It can travel flat out at 196 mph (31.6 km/h). The GT 63 S E Performance Edition is not for sale. However, the PHEV beast has a 6.1-kWh battery that can provide enough juice to power the vehicle for 7.5 miles (12 km) of electric range. The combined fuel consumption of the two vehicles is a remarkable 7.9 liters/100 km. This works out to 29.7 miles per gallons. Mercedes will make the car available in Europe starting April. Details about the US are likely to follow later.
