REVIEW: The Mercedes-AMG GT63 E Performance pairs a 630bhp V8 with a 201bhp electric motor - is it a successful combination?
Inside, this being a variant of a car that arrived in the previous decade, you won’t find Mercedes’ very latest infotainment system, which means it retains a trackpad on the centre console and has a transmission tunnel busy with buttons for driving functions. That said, the steering wheel is updated to the latest split-spoke kind, including rotary drive mode selectors.
That fact is rather more obvious on the move, as you would hope. My hour-long test started with a nearly flat battery, so I can’t tell you much about electric-only driving other than it’s smooth. But even when the battery is depleted, the 63 S E Performance will still gain some charge under braking, which it then uses to aid throttle response.For torque filing, this is rather nice. There’s no need to stir the gearshift paddles or wait for the turbochargers to spool.
The best of all worlds, then? I’m not so sure. Certainly the ride and handling still retain a blend and balance that’s easy to rub a long with. There’s a firmness to the ride in bespoke AMG models that you don’t find in heated-up CLS or E-Class variants, which is both understandable and desirable.
But this is still a sensationally likeable car, and if you do some short urban commuting that you would love to perform electrically, fill your boots. Otherwise, I think they would be equally filled by the 63 S.
