2025 AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE (791 HP) — SOUND, EXTERIOR & INTERIOR

EV Channels Review

The 2025 Mercedes-AMG S 63 E Performance is presented as a significant evolution, blending a potent V8 biturbo engine with a 150kW electric motor for a combined 791 horsepower and 1,055 lb-ft of torque. The reviewer highlights the "instant power" and "best of both worlds" experience, emphasizing that the electrification enhances, rather than detracts from, the V8's performance. Key praised features include the sophisticated suspension enabled by the hybrid system, all-wheel steering for improved agility, and the luxurious, comfortable S-Class interior with its advanced MBUX infotainment, immersive Burmester sound system, and unique features like seat resonators. The reviewer also details the car's extensive energy flow displays, augmented reality navigation, and pre-entry climate control, noting the "P3 plug-in hybrid system" and its regenerative braking capabilities, which can be adjusted via paddle shifters. While the electric range is noted as short, the car's overall performance, comfort, and technological integration are deemed exceptional, making it a "special" and "gorgeous" vehicle.
