According to available information, Mercedes could soon produce a new E-Class model named E73. The new model would use the same propulsion power as the AMG GT73e model. It is a 4.0-liter biturbo V8 engine with 800 hp, which is more than the GT63S 4-Door as currently the most powerful model with 630 hp. It is expected to accelerate from 0-62 mph in 3.2 seconds, as much as the GT63S model, or less.

The new E-Class should be much more powerful than competing BMW M5 CS and Audi RS7 models. Audi and BMW have so far not mentioned the electrification of their M and RS models.

For more information, we will have to wait. One thing is for sure, Mercedes continues to push the boundaries for its competitors.
