About the Mercedes-AMG E 63 W213
The W213-generation E 63 S marked a significant shift for AMG, replacing the old 5.5-litre unit with a highly advanced 4.0-litre 'Hot V' twin-turbo V8. It introduced the 4MATIC+ system, which for the first time allowed for fully variable torque distribution, including a rear-drive-only 'Drift Mode' that cemented its reputation as a hooligan in a suit. Despite its brutal performance, it remains a master of refinement, featuring air suspension and a lavish dual-screen interior that makes it one of the most capable all-rounders ever produced. Collectors value the W213 as the final pure V8 E-Class before the nameplate transitioned to hybridised four-cylinder power.

Mercedes-AMG E 63 W213 fun facts
- The E 63 S was the first AMG to feature a 'Drift Mode', which completely decouples the front axle to send 100% of the torque to the rear wheels.
- Its M177 engine uses 'Hot V' turbocharging, where the turbos are placed inside the V-shape of the cylinder banks to reduce lag and improve thermal efficiency.
- The 9-speed MCT transmission uses a wet start-off clutch instead of a traditional torque converter to provide faster shifts and better response.
