Mercedes-AMG S63 Plug In Hybrid, Spied, Could Come With More Than 700 HPMercedes has done a great job of keeping the details about the S63’s powertrain under wraps. Mercedes is expected to pair a twin-turbocharged V8 and an electric motor to produce more than 700 horsepower (514 kilowatts). An automatic gearbox will distribute power to all four wheels.

Mercedes may offer an ever more powerful variant with 800 horsepower (588 kW) according to rumors. It is possible to make such a model, according to rumors dating back to September 2020. Mercedes makes the 831-hp Mercedes AMG GT 63 E-Performance, which produces 1,033 pound feet (1,400 Newton-meters of torque), and could replace the V12 AMG model.

The interior of the Mercedes S-Class has been revealed in spy shots. We saw the S-Class interior in 2020. Mercedes tried hiding it in the AMG. The company could have made some styling changes. Although we don’t expect any major changes to the S-Class model, there will be plenty AMG branding.

Mercedes is not the only car manufacturer that is electrifying. Mercedes continues to push ahead with full electrification via its EQ brand, which continues launching new models. However, gas-powered cars remain important. Automakers are turning to hybrids because of stricter emissions regulations. This allows for greater efficiency and better performance. The AMG S63 will produce a ridiculous amount of power but it will also be able to offer all-electric mobility for limited range.
