MERCEDES BENZS 63 AMG (W222) 2013 - 2017

　　The S 63 AMG was a kind of vehicle with a split personality that could either drive its occupants in comfort or it could be thrashed around a corner smoking its rear tires.

　　Available on both versions of the wheelbases of the S-Class (W222), this AMG version of the luxury car came on the market in 2013. The evolution of this car over its predecessor was massive not only in terms of features and amenities but also in terms of performance. Adding more power to the biturbo V8 was just one of the upgrades. It also had two extra gears in the gearbox and was available with an all-wheel drive system. That was a first for the AMG-branded S-Class.

　　The S 63 AMG sported a new front bumper that featured the AMG A-shaped lower grille and a pair of side grilles. Unlike its predecessor, it was not fitted with the five double-spoke wheels but with a pair of 19" multispoke ones. As an option, the car manufacturer offered a set of ten-spoke 20" set of alloys. At the back, the S 63 received a bumper with a new lower diffuser flanked by four squared exhausts.

　　The car's leather-wrapped interior left no room for mistakes: it was as luxurious as an S-Class could be. At the front, it featured bolstered, adjustable seats with all the functions someone could dream of, from heating and ventilation to massage functions. The complete digital dashboard offered a screen above the center stack placed under the same piece of glass as the instrument panel. Depending on the options, customers could choose either wood, leather, or carbon fiber trims. Like all AMGs from those times, the S 63 got aluminum pedals.

　　Under the hood, the Mercedes-AMG S 63 featured a 5.5-liter biturbo engine paired with a seven-speed AMG SPEEDSHIFT automatic transmission that sent its power to the rear or in all corners for the 4Matic versions.
