The new Mercedes-AMG CLE 63 S has the difficult task of living up to the high expectations created by its predecessor, the C 63 S AMG, known for its exceptional sound and hooligan character .
Fortunately, fans of the brand, and specifically those of the small coupe, should be happy because Mercedes-AMG is back with a 4.0-liter V8 engine with around 585 hp. The engine is the M177 and is found in all current V8 AMG models.
It was initially speculated that the model would be equipped with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder hybrid unit similar to the one in the C 63 S E Performance, but poor sales of the 4-cylinder C 63 forced Mercedes-AMG to correct their mistake.
Spy videos shot in Spain confirm the presence of the CLE 63 S's V8 engine, producing the typical eight-cylinder deep sound. Hear it.
