Take the ‘regular‘ vehicle and give it a large testosterone shot. pretty tons what the guys at AMG do to the Mercedes-Benz variety of inventory vehicles. Mercedes-AMG did not waste any time in any respect to present the brand new C-elegance Cabriolet precisely that. So even as we were in Italy to force the newC-Cabrio, we also got our palms on the Mercedes-AMG C63 S Cabriolet. The AMG alter ego is available in3 variations – the C63 S, C63 and the C43 Cabriolet. We drove the maximum effective as that’s what we reckon will display up in India some months down the road.

Our check car turned into dressed in luxurious Selenite gray paint with a Cranberry crimson cloth roof. We guarantee you, irrespective of where you take this automobile, you are bound to drop jaws and flipheads. The C63 S Cabrio has a muscular stance, an fashionable face and lots of carbon fibre to justify that AMG tag! but the actual cause for that tag comes from beneath the hood: 4.0 litre, dual–turbo V8 that unleashes 503 horses at complete gallop from five,500 rpm through to 6,250 rpm. It also churns out a mad700 Nm of torque from as little as 1,750rpm all the way via to four,500rpm.
All that strength is transferred to the rear wheels thru a 7-pace AMG MCT Speedshift transmission. It feels sinfully delightful. Mash the pedal and you’re push back in your seat with a real ferocity. The soundtrack of the strong V8 Biturbo engine has a thunderous exhaust observe – likely loud enough to place the worryof God into atheists as nicely! The boom is followed via the necessary pops and crackles because theC63 S Cabriolet is being put through its paces at the tarmac. It does 0–100 kmph in a trifling four.1 seconds from standstill, at the same time as the top velocity is an electronically confined 250 kmph (that can bespecced to reach 280kmph as well).

The C63 S Cabriolet pointers the dimensions at 1,925 kgs that’s sort of heavy – in particular whilstcompared to the BMW M4 Cabrio or maybe the much tamer Audi S5. that is in the main because the rear axles and the chassis have been stiffened to deal with the lack of structural integrity due to the cloth roof.however the suspension has been setup in a way that extracts the quality out of the automobile. Itssatisfactory and stiff, or even the minutest of irritants on the street might be felt at the guidance and filtervia for your backbone as nicely. but the plus side to this is the auto handles sharply and eagerly holdsthe line via corners and twists. Of course, you could pick out from three specific suspension setupsaccording to your temper or desires: consolation, recreation and game+.

the car we had had a bit of a dull interior – with a grey and black color scheme with bits of silver –especially dull for this type of effective and effective gadget. The critical console gets a sprint of carbon fibre and is outfitted with an IWC Schaffhausen time piece that looks very excessive–end. The flat bottomedsteering wheel provides to the sporty appeal of the car. just like other C-magnificence Cabriolet models, the C63 S additionally receives the AIRCAP (which essentially prevent the airflow from intruding the cabin) and the AIRSCARF (for blowing hot air on to occupants’ neck to maintain them from freezing in coldsituations) structures, as preferred.

The authentic line is that Mercedes-Benz India will now not be importing the C63 S Cabriolet. however at the same time as that can be disheartening for the AMG fans, we’ve got it on true authority that it’s farvirtually now not inside the immediately pipeline. India will first get the C300 Cabriolet through early 2017 and the AMG avatar is best possibly to comply with that in about 6 months thereafter. expect it to be priced as a substitute steeply, however then it is an AMG, and it does have that monster four.zero-litre V8 and the open-pinnacle!
