Highlights

Mercedes-Benz India, today, rolled out three products - S500, S63 AMG, and the G63 AMG Crazy Colour Edition. While the S500 is the coupe version of the S-Class, the S63 AMG is the performance-oriented model of the S500 Coupe. This is the first time in the history of Mercedes-Benz India that it has launched three products in a single day. Powering the S500 coupe is a 4.7-litre, twin-turbo, V8 engine that churns out a maximum power output of 453bhp and a peak torque of 700Nm. This is the same engine that powers the S500 saloon. The Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG, on the other hand, derives its power from a 5.5-litre, twin-turbo, V8 unit that, mated to a 7-speed AMG Speedshift gearbox, produces a whooping 577bhp and 900Nm.

The S63 AMG has an electronically limited top-speed of 250km/h.Though the overall design of both the S500 coupe and S63 AMG look similar, the latter one looks sportier and more aggressive with the AMG body kit and carbon-fibre interior trim.
