Have you ever wished our esteemed German automaker would create a vehicle that blends the pulse-pounding performance of a sports coupe with the high-riding versatility of an SUV? Well, if so, you're in luck. That is precisely what the design team set out to do with the all-new 2016 Mercedes-AMG® GLE 63 S Coupe. Learn more about this inimitable model by watching the video below:
While its singular style may be one of its strong suits, the real showstopper of the GLE 63 S Coupe is its big, brutish engine. Propelled by a twin-turbocharged 5.5-liter V8, this crossover churns out a colossal 577 horsepower and 561 pound-feet of torque. Both a seven-speed automatic gearbox and the 4MATIC® all-wheel-drive platform are standard. The real kicker here, though? Its otherworldly acceleration, of course! Give it the gas and this performance-minded pony will sprint from zero to 60 mph in a very scant 4.1 seconds.
The wait for the GLE 63 S Coupe is almost over. We hope to see some examples of the vehicle arrive out our Santa Fe, NM showroom sometime in the summer. In the meantime, though, we encourage you to stop by, say hello and take any currently offered Mercedes-Benz model out for a top-flight test drive.
