Mercedes Benz has just launched its new AMG fortified variant of its E-Class sports sedan, the E 63 AMG. For 2010 the E Class receives a complete redesign as well as a long list of new technological features. You can expect to see a new multi-clutch transmission and optional ceramic disc brakes on this new Benz. The power plant receives minor upgrades for 2010, still utilizing the bulletproof 6.2 liter V8 from the previous model. Horsepower is up to 518, an increase of 11 ponies over the last E 63. Torque is relatively unchanged at 465 ft-lbs. The E 63's performance is also not too far from its predecessor, with an estimated 0-60 mph time of around 4.3 seconds, although there should be a considerable improvement in the handling department. The mercedes also sports a completely new suspension system that allows for more comfort and more importantly, better performance. Mercedes has done a good job with its latest AMG model and if people can accept its aggressive styling, it is sure to be a hit.
