The new Mercedes AMG C63 for 2022. Although it is still in the testing phase, some information has been leaked to the public.

According to a Car Magazine report, the new Mercedes AMG C63 will use a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine the same as the AMG A45, with an integrated starter-generator (ISG) and a rear electric motor. So, it will not use the V8 engine as the previous model. It will also be 243 kg (535 lbs) heavier than the previous C63 sedan.

Speaking of power, the new 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine combined with the electric motor will produce 550 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque. The new model features a nine-speed sports transmission and active four-wheel drive from Drift mode. It will reach a speed of 62 mph in 3.5 seconds, which is 0.6 seconds faster than its predecessor.

The C63 will have a twin-power rear axle for power transmission via 4Matic + drive system, adjustable suspension and offset tire sizes (bigger at the back) for better corner exits.

The C63 AMG 4-Matic + EQ Power Sport (real name) will be introduced at the end of 2021, and will be on sale from 2022.
