Surprised to see this, especially given current emissions and fuel economy standards. Nothing can beat the sound of a meaty v8
Not sure how this is even possible with current regulations
I'm not surprised that it's the amg models that are getting it but it seems like there might be a catch or something.
It'l cost well over 100k and probably be some rare "limited edition" to draw up the price.
Mercedes + amg + hybrid will never be cheap.
Sounds like it's going to be very expensive.
And at least in my area it will be brought by those who have "100%" legit ways of earning money and will definitely respect the speed limit bear schools.
Seems strange but why not..
Personally, I’ve had a V8 a few years ago, but I can’t picture myself having another one when winters are disappearing in my country.
Still, I hope they injected a nice personality into the C63 4 cylinder hybrid setup and that it at least reduces the real world consumption.
Mercedes: "Fuck EV's, we are going old school on this bitch!"
/love it and can't afford one.
