New Mercedes-Benz CLS 63 AMG Shooting Brake Officially Revealed
It took Mercedes-Benz a little over a week after the official, online debut of the new CLS Shooting Brake and the sneak exposure of the AMG variant through a teaser video to finally announce details on the flagship model.
Like its saloon counterpart, the new CLS 63 AMG Shooting Brake is powered by a 5.5-litre V8 biturbo engine that makes 518hp (525PS) at 5,250 rpm and 516 lb-ft (700Nm) from 1,750 to 5,250 rpm in regular guise, for a zero to 100km/h (62mph) acceleration time of 4.4 seconds.
Mercedes-Benz also offers the Performance Package that comes standard on the time-limited 'Edition 1' model and which boost output to 550hp (557PS) and 590 lb-ft (800Nm) respectively reducing the 0-100km/h (62mph) sprint by 0.1 seconds to 4.3 seconds.
Both the regular and the 'Edition 1' variants have an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h (155mph). A combined fuel consumption of 10.1 lt/100km (23.3mpg US or 28.0mpg UK) with CO2 emissions of 235 g/km is also identical for both power units.
