What Is Mercedes-Benz AMG?<\/h2>\n

Mercedes-Benz AMG\u00ae vehicles (officially “Mercedes-AMG\u00ae”) are an elite line of Mercedes-Benz based models that deliver track-worthy horsepower and handling. While body styles and general capabilities are tied to other Mercedes-Benz vehicles (like the C-Class or GLE) these models represent a significant step up when it comes to power output. Many models also represent an elite level of craftsmanship, thanks to handmade engines.<\/p>\n

AMG 43 vs AMG 63<\/h3>\n

There are two essential types of Mercedes-AMG\u00ae vehicles. Any model\u00a0with a “43” in its name represents an elite version of the vehicle. In this example,\u00a0a 2017 Mercedes-AMG\u00ae E 43 is a high-powered variation of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan<\/a>\u00a0that\u00a0will offer stunning horsepower and torque. However, any model with “63” in its name (for example, the 2017 Mercedes-AMG\u00ae E 63 S) not only offers top power, but also boasts a handmade engine. This means an engine that has been assembled by a single craftsman to deliver premium power and performance. AMG\u00ae models with “65” or “45” \u00a0in their name also have a handmade engine.\u00a0<\/div>\n
