The #MercedesAMG #E53 has had me very excited since the first look, because AMG didn’t hold back. It’s an absolutely gorgeous car with a wide, unique body like an E63 and features a 6-cylinder hybrid setup that might just make it the best AMG daily driver we can hope to own!
The #AMG E53 is powered by the typical setup most new performance cars are getting these days: a combustion engine, an electric motor, and a battery pack, giving a total output of 612BHP. The 6-cylinder is the new 3.0-litre M256M inline six-cylinder turbo engine, producing 450HP by itself, with a new electric compressor providing more boost pressure.
The hybrid system includes a permanently excited motor inside the transmission with 135HP more power and 480 Nm of torque, and a 28 kW battery with a usable capacity of 21 kW. This brings the total to 585BHP, 612 on Race Start, with 750NM and a 0-60 time of 3.8 seconds. With the AMG Dynamic Plus Pack on Race Start, it’s the same power as the previous generation E63!
But what about the weight? The car weighs 2.4 tonnes thanks to the hybrid system, compared to the E63 at only 1990kg. We will go over what this means for the power to weight ratio.
The benefit of that system is the battery, providing up to 100km all-electric range, making it viable for daily use.
The E53 features AMG RIDE CONTROL suspension with a wide track, sporty spring/damper setup, and two-valve damping at each wheel and finally AMG speed-sensitive steering and rear axle steering up to 2.5 degrees enhance handling. Let’s see how it handles today.
Pricing for the UK is £90,860 for the base model, £96,860 for the Premium Plus, and £115,860 for the Edition 1. The AMG Performance Package, costing £7,495, adds bucket seats, a carbon steering wheel, and the all important dynamic plus pack. How will this pricing work versus the upcoming new M5? Will be interesting to see.
Today we will do the full first drive, including first impressions, a launch control, exhaust sound, the hybrid system: and more! Let’s see how this AMG daily car stands up!

Damn, even AMG's own product line is kicking the new "C45+" in the teeth. Also, that estate spec is fire
It's a really nice overall package as a daily AMG. But I still hope they make a 63 V8 version.
The future looks great 🥰
cant wait for the engine power of 63 version, since the 53 already has 612 hp
@@aceultimate4393 M5 was released yesterday..750 HP i think…but the price is shocking of the M5 115.000 Euro so on the same price level as the 53 ePerformance..so the 63 Version will be above..150.000 onwards?
Fingers cross
@@visionmodernclassics3062 The S63 e performance is as expensive as the old S65 was so yes I’d expect an E63 e performance to be priced higher than the M5.
This car is perfect, a car you can buy in your 30's and enjoy till you die without ever feeling like you out of place.
Not true once u have it , its on to the next one
@@jwanilpatel3223 I don't know, i think i am secure enough with my choices. So long as i end up Majestic, as it should be.
Trying to maintain this car for 20+ years would be a nightmare. It's a car you lease or buy to own for 5-7years and sell.
You totally sold me on this car. 🔥 it’s basically a baby S 63 now.
Car wow just did a race between the new C 63amg with the 4 cylinder and because of the electric motor it kicked the older v8’s butt.
Whow, Hybrid is still BULLSHIT
Still gay 4 cylinder. People will be nice car does it come in men's????
I personally dont like the redesign, I love the 2021-23 e class soooo much more
@@DeMon-l1w Wrong! It is great! How do I know because I have owned several performance hybrids.
What is also impressive the ambient lighting
The old e53 was 4.0s 0-60 and the new is 3.4s 0-60
the old E53 is 4.3s 0-60
0-60 doesnt matter in the real world
@@axcn4733 Car and Driver has it in 3.9 seconds. Mercedes is always conservative with their times.
@@softroseforyou7457 i have the car and is not 3.9
@@enfantterrible4868 Of course it matters. The thing that doesnt matter is max speed, if youre living outside of germany.
It looks really good imo.
Now Mercedes needs to bring also their e lineup to this style and they will finally get some shit sold.
This is the new E63. At least they didn't put the crappy 4 cylinder in this one.
Yet
The 4 cylinder is not crappy. It's just not what we want in any AMG 63s C class and above. Crappy would suggest the engine is no good. But anyone who knows about that engine knows how good it is. So, don't be disparaging the engine because Merc chose to put it in the C63s
You don't know that, as the V8 is coming for the CLE it is quite possible that a E63 will follow
@@Average_Bruh You forgot to mention how unreliable that 4 cylinder is due to high boost its internals dont last long.
The first Eclass wagon that actually looks beautiful! ❤❤❤
5:55 can someone explain why it has 28 kWh but only 21 are used?
That estate though 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 superstations ftw
Very nice. I like that it's sort of stealthy too. No stupid loud exhaust and excessive pop/bang/crackle bs. Tuneable suspension and driving modes as well.
Thanks a lot for this video. This one is really the one for me this year. If you ever get a chance to drive one without the dynamics plus package please consider making a review for that. For me personally it’s the E-class first and foremost and AMG is a bonus. And when you get the dynamics plus package you have to get the uncomfortable performance seats (at least in the UK) so it’s a deal breaker for me personally. Also, I’m not a big fan of the Night package 2 which again is not optional in the UK with the dynamics plus package. So I’m spec-ing my car without that and very much interested in a review.
Brilliant in every way, welcome back Mercedes.
Looks stunning, especially in wagon form. Heavy but assume they push the hybrid stuff for company car tax reasons (as well as power)?
They did well
But the price will affect sales
As a BMW fanboy, I hate how good this E-class, and E53 specifically, look compared to the G60 5-series 😢 Though I guess I should reserve judgment until next Wednesday’s G90 M5 sedan reveal
ruclips.net/user/shortsQ1fVYyyg67Y?si=ojbbd4z5k5qATC0q
These numbers has to stop it has only 612 for 10sec when battery dies its 450 these hybrid numbers are a big lie.. great car btw😂
That's one point I would like more reviewers to focus on. In my experience if you're really on it in max attack mode for long enough the max output will not stay at 612hp for too long...
I have a mclaren artura hybrid and when you used it on sport or track the battery charge by itself
@@epgr89 but doesn’t the battery goes empty faster then it charges? I think the manufacturers have to mention and add 50% of the battery power on the combustion hp to get an realistic number.. for example the e53 has 531hp and on full power 612hp.. a bit like the fuel consumption they giving us 3 numbers combined,city,highway
The battery never runs out in sport mode, so relax
@@mss531the battery recuperates itself by the engine as in case of hybrid super sports cars, for this though, I am not sure.
I think AMG CLE53's exhaust sound better than E53, it has more pop & bang sound.
Front just like BMW 5 series with 3 pointed star.
rear.. Audi A5.. with Merc logo..
I want the super screen. I love the way it looks in car. It's impressive. The car without the passenger screen doesn't look right to me.
This is cute. I wonder what the AMG version will be like
Wow AMG really found the sweet spot with this car. That 1% of drivers who can't live with 3.8 0-60 acceleration will have to spring for the extra cash to have a sedan that they can race on a track but for everyone else this car covers everything from pretending you're helping the environment with your 2.5 ton car, leveraging rare-earth minerals mined from rainforests with giant diesel powered tractors so that you can use less gasoline, all the way to the car that will hang with the $40k Tesla with completely unsafe levels of speed combined with cheap car dynamics and brakes. In terms of nailing their target market Mercedes has certainly succeeded.
Way better looking than ANY of BMW’s latest designs!!!
You are kidding right?
Lmao yea if ur an old lady. This looks terrible. Ur telling me this looks better then a bmw m340i, bmw m3, bmw m4... hell no. Sales speak for themselves bmw is shitting all over mercedes. Performance wise also

@@G82Watts how much did bmw pay u
sorry but previous version was not 5.3 0-60, it was closer to 4.3 for the sedan, I draggy my E53 wagon at 4.56 seconds.
Is the emotion start (pulling gear shift Paddel while starting the car) still possible? Just to make sure I can still annoy my neighbors with this car 😉
I like this engine, at least it's not a 4cyl
Fingers crossed that you're posting a 2025 cayenne gts review soon!
That car is so huge it looks like a coupe suv from outside
Great Review! Many thanks! This makes the waiting time a bit more easier 😁
Like the S63 AMG, a transcontinental supercar fast sedan is IRRELEVANT if it can’t carry a decent volume of luggage plus the usual additional shopping extra luggage extra need. Surely great fun, yet USELESS in the grand scheme of things. If you want to go fast across continents you by a proper two door GT and add a cargo swallowing fast SUV on the side for family/partners traveling. If you can’t afford multiple cars: get a fast SUV; you’ll get a Swiss knife carrying, worst case scenario, 50% more cargo, and possibly 100% more.
The current AMG sedans - except the wagon - are a lot of uselessness for sale. If I want a useless but fun car, I don’t need 4 doors and no trunk space. If I want a transcontinental sedan I’d go for the S8 (fast, bigger, decent trunk), or the RS6. And I’m not even an Audi fan. It’s lust basic logic.
The S63 and E53 are great for those dreaming about it while they know they will never actually buy it I think. It’s a fantasy no one actually needs.
I agree about the useless boot space, pointless
Feels like there's a lot of analog sound in there?
Is it just me or are the headlights from a previous gen 5 series
Yes. Not great
Are you drunk?
these are the sports seats right? Theres a comfort option as well?
Beautiful car
I saw that without choosing the superscreen you can still get carbon and it will take up the blank dashboard space! But I did wish Mercedes would return to trim pieces on the door panels..such wasted free real estate for what could be a cool and quality looking door panel to make the carbon more worth it.
The wagon
I really like this car!
Im pretty sure they meant this car to be an e63, but the backlash from the c63 made them reconsider😅
Beautiful car!
The only things I don't like not hate just don't like are the lights front and bk and the ride hight different 🎉
I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the kislux leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.
Still not convinced on big heavy batteries
Can you test BMW M Models and Alpina‘s please? It would be very interesting 😊
This 53 will change the game, imagine the 63
I wonder which has the most comftable suspension. The E53, EQE53, i5 60M or S E-Tron GT
They are not selling, are they ?
Well then guys and girls if you are seeing the Santa thing I am then we are witnessing the Man the miff the legend MR AMG GIVE IN TO ELECT 👌 MERCEDES NOW HE IS KNOWN AS MR ⚡AMG⚡
2023 was the last year they will produce a v8 for the E63 hence the final edition. Mercedes is going to produce a 63 inline 6 cyl hybrid
We need that brown interior in the CLE 63 🙏🏽
My grandmother loves hers
Better than new m5
So what is the price?
Everyone saying shit about weight in the new M5 with a V8 but they forget that E53 with a smaller engine which is an inline 6 + hybird motor also weight in at 2.4 ton
Let's see the E63 i can see where the weight will be for that car if they use a V8 on that one
The s63 which is a v8 hybrid weighs the same as the m5 and that’s an s class but it’ll be interesting to see how heavy it is
Also that m5 is ugly and slower than the f90 of it was faster and prettier then fair enough with merc these ones are faster than there predecessors
2.5 tonnes.. I like the car but damn thats wayyyy too heavy.
Stick it up against the fresh M5? Makes me wonder which one he would choose? (Grins) i think i know.
I only use v16 naturally aspirated engine hybrid engine....
the m5 maintains the v8👏👏👏
This car looks better than an M5 and it doesn't look like a submarine either.
gorgeous car
This car does not look elegant like the E classes of the past. Tail lights are super tacky, headlights are weird looking and are connected to the grille like in the EQ models, fake engine noise, fake plastic "light" between tail lights and don't even get me started on the fake cheap looking plastic vent above front fender. AMG made a transition to being led by corporate drones instead of enthusiasts. I think the lack of any real special editions of the last V8 powered C class speaks for it more than anything else.
2.4 tons?😬😬, all that power and u will still loose to an m3 or m4 anyday
still lose to a bone stock tesla on the road that costs 1/4 of the price.
this is a 5 series rival so I'm not sure what your point is
when is the e63 coming out?
Will there be a coupe version 🤔?
I’d choose E63 V8 over this
It's a gorgeous car!
Your old E53 0-60 seems to be wrong. 4.3 I believe.
Woah woah woah, sorry but have to call out the incorrect 0-60 time of the previous E53. It's not 5.3, it's ~4.5. Cheers!
Why no 63?
The new M5 would eat this.
Are they planning a 63 in the future?
is there a mercedes e class amg 43 one
but what if there will not come a new E63... will this then be enough? granted you don't buy an E63 to go on track every week but to me a 63 means it is a bit different. with all the speed camera's and bullshit here i can still enjoy my W205 because even at extreme low speed it feels and hears different. those new AMG's seem to only give those emotions when going very fast meaning for daily drive you could have just bought a regular 300 of 400 model and save the money
Will there be a coupe ?
Good review. Just wondering why he blurs the gauge cluster?
He's speeding and doesn't want to incriminate himself
@@jh24888 that’s what I thought lol
Estate version to the win! Keep the wife happy…
Sorry, but in my opinion the predecessor looks much nicer and sportier.
Is this car the 2024 model or 2025
Quelle voiture ❤
Will there be a cabriolet version ?
AMG CLE 53 Cabriolet and Coupe.
Why you putting this car in the m5 league? SMH you should be talking about the m50 5 series
BMW and Mercedes needs to fire their designers asap. The 5series looks horrible, while the E-Class could ve looked much better and already feels a bit outdated.
Every think good except the dashboard
When will this be available in Canada
Audi makes better looking wagons
If no e63s amg v8 bi turbo...i m buying an M8 Comp....and i currently own a 2020 E63S. Dont screw up Mercedes....know your customer!
No V8
Very NICE CAR. Especially love the MOODLIGHT👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👍🏽👊🏾💯
Hate the screens, head lights and tail lights are hideous, why are they making the cars so round… think all the new m5s look way better…
Not sure if it will turn heads. I am going to stick to Porsche
I think the car overall looks good. The taillights are a bit weird and the illuminated grill is some stupid tesla shit. But the car is appealing. On the inside really miss the long screen (2 screens behind one glass piece), which was found in the previous E-Class. Also the seats look in every new Mercedes Model except the S-Class a bit cheap (I am talking about the normal seats, not the bucket ones). And wtf is the straight 6 engine, this isn’t t a M4 (no hate against that car). The Amg E-Class only deserves a good sounding V8! I think nowadays the people who make the decisions at Mercedes Benz aren’t worthy or even a disgrace to the star emblem. What a shame.
This looks like bmw not a bad thing but interesting
4 cilinder in c63 has more power than this 6 cilinder
Big ass car
Raz, i wouldn't buy this car. Maybe ponder on the E63 but this car is like my wife's daily.
these german car makers are going downhill
For the price of this Thing you can buy better cars with a decent engine
I always confuse this car with a BMW... Headlights are a direct rip off of BMW
Nice car but never liked the anus star tail lights. Normally the tail lights are designed purposely for the LED, but these looks like a cheap Amazon aftertought.
2.4 tonnes WTF.
I don’t wanna plug anything in anywhere
i dont know about the rear, its too generic for a merc. They need to get a black man to design the rear end
2400...
Does Merc/AMG put out 1 new car every other day or what, all different names all boring 2000 kg automatics with the same boring touchscreen stuff and boring fake exhaust and suspension and steering your grammas will love. Luckily we still have the BRZ/GR86 and a few other Nissans Hondas and Toyotas and a couple of very porky Bimmers and some infinite number of slightly different Porsches, for a few more years, so let’s enjoy what’s left of the good times.
