The German company's two AMGs are based on their respective latest-generation counterparts that were first unveiled in late 2022.

It has a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine that produces 476 horsepower, as well as an electric motor that produces 204 horsepower and is powered by a 6.1-kWh battery.
An upgraded version of the twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 petrol engine is also available for the S 63 e-Performance. Additionally, a 13.1kWh lithium-ion battery-powered asynchronous electric motor mounted on the rear axle is used. Both have a combined output of 1,430 Nm of torque and 802 horsepower.
Santosh Iyer, MD and CEO of Mercedes-Benz India, also said that the launch of the all-new E-Class will take place this year. "The new E-Class LWB will arrive by the end of this year. So, there may be some time without an E-Class in our range," he said.
The brand also plans to introduce three new EVs during the year, one of which is expected to be the Maybach EQS.
