➤ talk to AMG, what would you think?
different people may give different answers:
may be the Mercedes-Benz 300 SE racing – in the hands of AMG founder Hans Werner Aufrecht and Erhard Melcher, and that Taiwan is straight-six engine successfully squeezed out 238Ps, winning that year’s German touring car championship.
1969 may be modified Mercedes-Benz AMG brand was born 280 E– this masterpiece will be powered 2.8L engine is increased from 185Ps to 230Ps, maximum speed up to 230km / h.
may be 1971 AMG Mercedes300 SEL 6.8– expansion cylinder displacement of 6.3L to 6.8L, powered by 300Ps promoted to 420Ps, a gigantic called the Mercedes-Benz cars made in Spa 24 hours endurance race champion at the same level at the same time, also got good results ranked second overall.
……
There are many people talked about the past. For example, in 1988, AMG Mercedes 300 E 6.0 AMG will be equipped with the 6.0L V8 engine squeeze out 365Ps, has become one of the best at that time V8 engine.
In short story about AMG’s always not open around the high-performance high-horsepower engines.
the big displacement, “the suit thugs” will disappear
AMG high-performance models as Mercedes-Benz’s R & D department, 55 AMG series, 63 AMG series, 65 AMG series, all of them are people address him enjoyable. With large displacement known as, but unlike the BMW M power play on the Audi RS of technology-based, AMG Mercedes-Benz has always stressed that to maintain the original sense of elegance, while the surging power of the performance is very hungry.
▲ Later we used to call it “suits thugs aesthetics”
most people’s mind and heart SLS AMG, BMW M Series even skip or Audi R8 and other models, andPeer benchmarking Ferrari 458, McLaren MP4-12C face just.
M159 engine (6.3L V8) has a sense of power typical large-displacement naturally aspirated engine, 0-100km / h acceleration 3.7 seconds, 0-200km / h only 11.2 seconds. Coupled with the classic gull-wing doors, long Dash to Axle (front axle distance to the A-pillar), elegant everywhere, no wonder to see it, feel everything is dark on a lot of the F1 circuit.
▲ AMG believe in “mob suit aesthetics”, obsessed with crushing force rather than a direct re-engined. Engineers have a signature on each AMG engine, for a time became the elephants
Thus, when the well-known Mercedes -AMG proposed expected early 2022’s the new generation of the AMG C 63 abandon V8 twin turbo compression engine, four-cylinder select switch to + hybrid system, the news that a considerable number of people are very heart stopper.
You know, everyone is a fan of self-absorption 6.2L V8 engine, AMG C 63 is known as the “German muscle car”, later renamed 4.0L V8 twin-turbo engine can still accept, but after a few years actually four-cylinder machines have become a bit too much against people.
BMW M series
opposite but no compromise, even if it is M2 have to spend 3.0T L6 engine.
Of course motives for doing so obvious – appropriate energy conservation and fuel economy requirements.
we saw even at the end of 2019 AMG formal resurrection AMG 73, also showed no turning back posture.
AMG series will be 73 new top model family, but no longer mounted V12 engine, but instead 4.0L V8 + EQ Power hybrid system.
If you want to relive the V12 of the world’s best, only to see the Pagani. Benz 7.3L V12 engine Pagani sold in Pagani Zonda F Cinque body, this engine is tuned out 678Ps, 0-100km / h acceleration 3.4 seconds, 0-200km / hOnly 9.6 seconds.
whether it will ruin the small-displacement AMG?
Over the years, Mercedes-Benz AMG brand in expanding the coverage of its AMG versions are producing as much as possible on every Mercedes-Benz series, it is overstating the benefits of the product tone, but also inevitably binding problem, so the lack of independence of the AMG, the right to speak on the power configuration choices indeed weakened.
▲ Not all Mercedes-Benz models will have a version of AMG, AMG official said the electric car will not get the full version of AMG, replaced by AMG Line package
[ 123] the only consolation you is that small displacement + hybrid mode does not affect its superior power. For example, a new generation of AMG 2.0T A45 can be tapped M139 longitudinally mounted engine, there 421Ps, with 48V light hybrid system, breaking the 500-horsepower small problem.
AMG C 63 generation body of this hybrid system M139 2.0L inline four-cylinder turbocharged engine based on the development of the code body cash AMG A45 and 48V using a light compounding techniques.
Reference A45 dynamic performance, next generation AMG C 63 510Ps not worse than cash.
▲ hybrid technology in the development of particularly fast between the years, to the hybrid 2.0T + hp to 600 may not be a problem, not to mention the small displacement, light weight, and more fuel economy, emissions taxes less
data, the maximum power of the AMG 73 will exceed 800ps, hybrid faster system response, and can output more power to the rear wheels, one hundred kilometers acceleration time results It will be in 3 seconds.
In retrospect, we know that Mercedes -AMG’s core competence is based on the original press on the engine more power, through the installation of high-performance engine was not actually the beginning of their favorite routines.
but AMG’s fan base are those who have money and are willing to enjoy the driving pleasure, there is a sense of AMG Mercedes-Benz is to create a stronger, so how to appease fans of the heart, they really need to take under consideration a.
How
AMG appease fans of the heart?
It is said that BMW M has control, there are four-wheel drive Audi RS, AMG sells mainly similar to muscle cars and high-powered voice, now into a small-displacement engine, the obvious strengths. It is not the case for the time being is not the table, but in competition with the BMW M, Mercedes -AMG sales performance in recent years is really tepid, BMW M have actually singing along.
The good news is that Mercedes -AMG still has a good product output. In recent years, small-displacement high-performance engine fast, and many small steel gun speed of ultra-running as much as in the past.
AMGA45 S can be described as one of the king of small steel gun, based BMW 1 M, in competition Audi S3 Sportback favorably. 2.0T which is powered by a turbo engine, the maximum horsepower 421Ps, peak torque 500Nmiddot; m, one hundred zero acceleration only 3.9 seconds, four-wheel drive system is also equipped 4Matic drift mode.
to stabilize the Chinese market, AMG A 35 L sports sedan made in China in the form of production by the Beijing Benz, the German Powertrain K? Lleda plant.
The maximum power of this engine is 2.0T station 306Ps, the maximum torque of 400 Nm middot; m, 7-speed double clutch gearbox matching, 0-100km / h acceleration 4.9 seconds.
However, in the future you should consider whether AMG lower the prices? For example, M5 Thunder version 1,468,900 1,560,800 price than the price of the Mercedes-Benz E63 S AMG’s low of nearly 10 million, in the experience less the case, who would make life difficult for it with money?
written in the last
Although expensive for the Mercedes-Benz Queen tuning, but Mercedes-Benz has made it clear AMG models will respond positively to the EU’s new emissions requirements. It is said that their future will be reduced 75 percent product line, and one hundred kilometers to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by about 28 percent to 100 grams.
so difficult -AMG Mercedes faced only the beginning, to know from BMW M and Mercedes AMG production in Chinese marketProduct layout point of view, they are obviously taking two different routes. BMW M has 14 models, all of them have strong, while Mercedes -AMG there are as many as 30 models, more like a shotgun tactics. If a substantial reduction in the proportion of vehicles, whether they can withstand the test is still unknown.
