Doesn't look like much of a change at all on the e55..

Isn't it true that the next generation of AMGs will have larger capacity naturally aspirated engines, i.e. rather than bi-turbo/supercharger?

Either way nice scoop 8)

Except for the extra liter or so of displacement. . . =)

OMG, I'm afraid to think what Brabus will make out of this. If the previous E-class was called "The Terminator", how they would call this one? "Doom's Day weapon"?
6.3 2xturbo tuned by Brabus, could be as much as 6.5 2xturbo boosting up to 1bar :shock: 600hp at least.... Then instead rolling on the road, it would roll the road under itself

I'll wait for the Brabus version of this engine, just to scream "I want it"

Could this be an E500, with an SL65 bumper? I don't understand why somebody would change to the non-amg wheel, and it looks like fairly standard rubber under it?

Those engine specs sound insane though! 4.0 :shock

Can this be verified?

I think this might just be a bodykitted E-Class. Those rear tires couldnt be any bigger than 225s. Also those are the old AMG wheels. One more point that doesnt look like an intercooler at all.

The last figure I heard of was even higher - 571hp.

The time to 60 (or 100kph) won't differ much from the current E55 I'd say. MBs traction control kills way too much power to that.

i'm pretty sure the next gen of 6.3 engines from merc WILL be forced induced...other than that, i posted pics of a e63 or e65 a long time ago, no one believed it...but then again, it could always be just another guy with money to get a new bumper...i'm actually lookin for one for a client's c class...

It also has occured to me as if it had 571hp from 6.3l of displc. it would have to be either forced inducted (and hence lots of torque which suits those heavy mercs) or relatively high-revving (which does not suit that much)... Or there might be two versions under development - a less powerful NA one intended for ML,CLK etc. and a supercharged one for the upper classes - which might cause the confusion.
