Mercedes-AMG E 63 S 4Matic 2022. Infernal Batch: Mercedes-AMG will produce 999 farewell top-of-the-line E-Classes with V8.

Mercedes-Benz is preparing for a generational change in the E-Class and its sports versions from the Mercedes-AMG sub-brand.

The premiere of the new base model is scheduled for 2023, followed by Mercedes-AMG versions, and in the light of the company’s general course on electrification, they most likely will no longer have a gasoline V8, so the farewell batch of Mercedes-AMG E 63 S 4Matic+ Final Edition W213 announced today will be especially in demand by collectors and fans of old school sports sedans.

By 2030, Mercedes-Benz plans to completely switch to electric cars in developed markets (Europe, North America, Japan, etc.), which will gradually reduce the range of «hydrocarbon» models and convert the most powerful of them to hybrid propulsion.

The company stopped developing new internal combustion engines back in 2019, the main hybrid schemes are also already «finished» and ready for use, there will be no new ones.

On May 19, Mercedes-Benz presented its updated model strategy: there will be more exclusive and very expensive Top-End Luxury cars in the range, but the regular E-class is not included in this group and, together with the younger C-class, belongs to the Core Luxury category.

For Mercedes-Benz, these are mass-market cars with a large share of corporate buyers, but they will still have the top versions of Mercedes-AMG falling into the Top-End Luxury category — such is the division now.

The C-Class has already lost the V8 engine, in the current generation of W206 they are not, as well as no six-cylinder engines — now only four «pots».

We shall probably see inline six under the hood of the new E-Class, but a V8 is not available, which is hinted at by the farewell release of the E 63 S 4Matic+.

Features of the Final Edition — a matte gray paint with decorative stripes and commemorative medallions on the sides, 20-inch AMG forged wheels, and a set of gloss black AMG Night Package decor (it can be replaced by carbon fiber trim).

The interior is upholstered in gray nappa with contrasting yellow stitching, carbon fiber inserts and a commemorative plate with the serial number of the car from the special series.

A protective car cover with AMG E 63 S Final Edition lettering is also included as standard equipment.

4.0-liter engine M177 on this model gives maximum 612 hp and 850 Nm, the transmission — 9-speed «automatic» AMG Speedshift, a full drive — with a clutch power takeoff to the front axle and drift mode.

Up to 100 km/h Mercedes-AMG E 63 S 4Matic+ accelerates in 3,4 s, the maximum speed — 300 km/h.

The Final Edition is available as a sedan or station wagon.

Last weekend, the Mercedes-Benz company spotted at the Nürburgring a pre-production C 63 sedan of the new generation with a hybrid power plant based on a four-cylinder engine — perhaps the same will be in the new top-of-the-line E-Class.

Gasoline 2,0-liter «turbo four» M139 gives out here mad for such volume 470 hp, the electric motor installed on the back axle — 204 hp, cumulative peak efficiency of the system — 670 hp and 750 Nm.

You must agree that this is not a bad charge, but in order to use it to the fullest, you will have to charge the battery in advance.
