    You'll find all of the important details about the new E53 here, including how far it'll go on electricity only and what options to tick if you want a 3.8sec 0-62mph time and 174mph top speed. Let Autocar's Jonny Bryce explain the rest.

    People want the growling V8. This won't sell anywhere near the numbers the V8 did. My mate has the E63s V8 and thanks Mercedes for making his car's resale value better.

      Your argument would be valid, if this were the E63. But if you had paid any attention you would have realised this is not an E63, but an E53 which has always had a 3 liter straight 6 engine.

      It’s all irrelevant, AMG is just a trim package now. Mercedes, just like BMW, is about badges and status chasers more than making something their enthusiast customer actually wants.

    Merc rly increased their build quality once again. Those panel gaps are so precise and small, the rear bumper even looks like it's a part of the rear end, rather than a seperate part.

  • @flat6croc
    @flat6croc 2 месяца назад +1

    God this thing looks plasticky and cheap on the outside. The straight six is probably quite nice, but it won't please V8 fans and it seems like a pointless exercise. This car is really no more sustainable than if it were a V8. And you can cheat the figures with plugin in hybrid with a V8 as much as an I6. Anyway, I suspect Mercedes are already regretting going aggressive with reducing cylinder count on these new AMG cars.

    • @gonzochild
      @gonzochild 2 месяца назад

      This is an E53 so it was always an inline 6. Mercedes didnt have the choice on reducing the cylinder count on other models, CO2 legislation has dictated it. Essentially every smaller AMG they sell as lower CO2 Hybrid instead of big V8 is another couple of G-Wagons they can sell without missing their CO2 average.
