Coming to the S63 E Performance, the model is touted to be the most powerful S-Class produced by the folks at Mercedes to date. While it carries over the 4.0-litre, twin-turbo V8 engine from the outgoing car, what’s new is the electric motor mounted on the rear axle paired with a 13.1kWh battery pack. The combined output of this powertrain is rated at 802bhp and a mind-numbing 1,430Nm of twist. The electric motor also provides an EV-only range of 33km.

The cosmetic tweaks over the regular Mercedes-Benz S-Class include an AMG-spec grille, AMG body kit, 20-inch alloy wheels, trapezoidal exhaust pipes, and appropriate badges on the bootlid. The AMG-spec elements are present inside too, such as the steering wheel, trims, upholstery, and more. Also up for offer are AMG graphics for the fully digital instrument cluster.
