Overview

The 2020 Mercedes-Benz AMG E 63 S makes for an excellent contender in the midsize sedan class. With a standalone trim on offer, the Mercedes-Benz AMG E 63 S has an MSRP of $107,350, competing directly with the BMW M5 CS and the Maserati Quattroporte GTS. Only a 4.0L twin-turbocharged V8 engine is offered, mated to a 9-Speed Automatic transmission. Together, they produce 603 horsepower and 627 lb-ft of torque. Accelerating from 0-60 in 3 seconds, the AMG E 63 S maintains a combined fuel economy of 18 MPG. Mercedes-Benz offers the AMG E 63 S in 9 stunning colors, with the Iridium Silver being a particular favorite of ours.

Buying Advice

Available as a standalone exclusive trim, we would recommend the AMG E 63 S paired up with the optional Driver Assistance package and performance front seats. Both included, the price is bumped by around $4,750. In exchange, buyers get features Lane Keeping assist, Cross traffic function, active brake assist, etc which enhances the overall safety of the car
