OREANDA-NEWS. The new S 63 AMG Coupe takes centre stage on the Mercedes-Benz stand at the New York International Auto Show (S 63 AMG 4MATIC Coupe: Fuel consumption, combined cycle: 10.3 l/ 100 km; CO2 emissions, combined: 242 g/km). The stunning high-performance coupe sees Mercedes-AMG enhance its model lineup with a luxurious sports car that combines supreme power and performance with groundbreaking efficiency. AMG is in the fast lane throughout the world, exceeding last year's first quarter sales figures by more than 50 percent. Mercedes-Benz USA, too, has been able to follow on seamlessly from its record year in 2013. Each of the first four months of this year ended with a new sales record.

"The new S 63 AMG Coupe is another exciting AMG dream car in the luxury segment. We now also offer our new two-door with the optional, performance-oriented AMG 4MATIC all-wheel drive. We are thus continuing our all-wheel drive and model offensive on our largest single market, the U.S.," says Tobias Moers, Chairman of the Board of Management of Mercedes-AMG GmbH.

Further highlights of the S 63 AMG Coupe with rear-wheel drive include the AMG sports suspension based on MAGIC BODY CONTROL with the world's first curve tilting function. This enables the S 63 AMG Coupe to lean into the bend, similar to a motorcycle rider or skier, thus reducing the lateral acceleration exerted on the occupants. On country roads in particular, this technical innovation offers considerably more comfort and driving fun under high-speed cornering.
