The Exterior design of the 2024 AMG C 63 S PERFORMANCE
For the 2024 model year, the design of the C 63 S differs from that of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class in its more muscular proportions. The front is 50 millimeters longer and the front wings are wider than your normal C-Class.
The slim air outlet in the center of the bonnet that transitions elegantly into the two powerdomes is a distinguishing feature that is exclusive to the C 63 S. A round badge with a black AMG emblem replaces the Mercedes star with a laurel wreath on the bonnet. Other typical elements include the AMG-specific radiator grille with vertical struts and the AMG front apron in jet-wing design. Airflow is directed to its various functions by the large inlets and air curtains, air is regulated by the two electronically controlled Air Panels which are positioned behind the radiator grille and in the front apron.

The Interior design
The interior is adorned by the AMG sports seats which come standard with a special upholstery layout and distinctive stitching pattern. Exclusive colors and various Nappa leather upholsteries with an embossed AMG emblem in the front head restraints serve to emphasize either the sporty or the luxurious side of the C 63 S.
For the 2024 model year, the complete redesign second-generation AMG Performance seat is available as an option. Its special feature is the seat side bolsters with weight-saving openings that also allow better ventilation. If Nappa leather upholstery is selected, these also feature a contrasting color as an extra highlight. The shape of the backrest tapers towards the bottom. The AMG logo is now positioned between the matt chrome openings below the integrated head restraint.
AMG Performance steering
The standard AMG Performance steering wheel with its distinctive twin-spoke design and seamlessly integrated control buttons also offers tangible and visible added value. The round AMG steering wheel buttons allow important driving functions and all driving modes to be controlled without the driver having to take their hands off the steering wheel. For the 2024 model year, drivers can select the regeneration levels of the hybrid drive via the steering wheel buttons.
The hybrid drivetrain
Standard on the 2024 AMG C 63 S is the 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbo engine which is combined with a permanently excited synchronous electric motor. The motor is powered by a high-performance battery developed in Affalterbach. Mercedes AMG adopted a fully variable AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive. The internal combustion engine and the electric system produce a combined system output of 680 hp and maximum system torque of 1020 Nm for an impressive driving performance. the luxury car can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds. Its top speed is electronically limited to 280 km/h.
The 204 hp electric motor is positioned at the rear axle, where it is integrated with an electrically shifted two-speed gearbox and electronically controlled limited-slip differential in a compact electric drive unit.
Batteries
The Performance car features an innovative direct cooling system. A high-tech coolant based on an electrically non-conductive liquid flows around all 560 cells and cools them individually. Every battery needs a defined temperature for optimum power delivery. If the battery becomes too cold or too hot, it noticeably loses power at times or has to be regulated to avoid damage if the heat becomes excessive. The consistent temperature of the battery, therefore, has a decisive influence on its performance, service life, and safety. Conventional cooling systems, which only cool with air or the entire battery pack indirectly with water, quickly reach their limits – especially as the requirements continue to increase due to cells with ever-increasing energy density. If the thermal management does not fulfill its function optimally, the battery is at risk of aging prematurely.
Eight drive modes
Standard on the 2024 AMG C 63 S comes standard with eight AMG DYNAMIC SELECT driving modes which include “Electric”, “Comfort”, “Battery Hold”, “Sport”, “Sport+”, “RACE”, “Slippery” and “Individual”.
- “Electric” drive program: the focus is on the electric driving experience. All-electric driving is possible from a standstill up to 125 km/h, with the combustion engine always switched off. The mechanical connection to the AMG Performance 4MATIC+ components means that all-wheel drive is always available: if the rear wheels suddenly have too much slip, the power of the electric motor is also transmitted to the front wheels via the propeller shaft and drive shafts. If the battery has run down or the driver requests more power, the intelligent operating control system automatically switches to the “Comfort” driving mode and the combustion engine starts up to provide propulsion.
- “Comfort” drive program: starting is undertaken in most cases in electric mode. The combustion engine and electric motor run as the situation demands – with electric drive at low speeds, for example in residential areas or the city center, and hybrid driving with a combustion engine and electric motor in the countryside and on the motorway. The boost power of the electric motor is a maximum of around 25 percent. Overall, the result is a harmonious and consumption-optimized driving impression, thanks in part to the early upshifts of the AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT-9G transmission. Suspension and steering are set up with an emphasis on comfort. The steering focus is on energy efficiency, so that fuel consumption and emissions can be reduced. The hallmark AMG sportiness and agility are retained.
- Battery Hold” drive program: as in the “Comfort” drive program, the combustion engine and electric motor run based on the situation with a maximum boost of around 25 percent. The biggest difference is that the operating strategy keeps the battery’s state of charge constant. For example, if the battery is at 75 percent charge, it remains in this range in “Battery Hold”. The use of the electric motor is then limited and optimized for low power consumption, which is compensated for by recuperation, for example. An advantage for drivers: they can decide when to make full use of the battery charge again, simply by changing the drive program.
- “Sport” drive program: starting with a combustion engine and electric motor and situational interaction of the two drives. More boost from the electric motor is enabled, up to around 65 percent. Sporty driving impression owing to more agile accelerator response, shorter shift times, and earlier downshifts. A more dynamic suspension and steering set-up.
- “Sport+” drive program: starting off with the combustion engine and electric motor and situational interaction of the two drives. Even higher boost the performance of up to 80 percent. Extremely sporty character thanks to even more agile throttle response and targeted torque intervention during upshifts with cylinder deactivation for optimum shift times. Increased idle speed for faster starting. An even more dynamic set-up for suspension, steering, and powertrain.
- “RACE” drive program: for highly dynamic driving on closed race tracks. In this mode, all the parameters are configured for maximum performance. Starting off with combustion engine and electric motor and situational interaction of the two drives. Electric boost power of the electric motor up to 80 percent. Strong battery recharging at low power demand for maximum electrical availability. In addition, the “Boost Mode” can be called up via the left-hand steering wheel button. The boost power is then limited to a maximum of 30 per cent in order to conserve energy reserves. These can then be used specifically on the race track for spontaneous power demand via kick-down and 100 per cent boost power – for example for an acceleration manoeuvre or powerful acceleration out of corners.
- “Slippery” drive program: optimized for slippery road conditions, with reduced power and a flat torque curve. Electric-only driving and recuperation adjustment are deactivated.
- “Individual” drive program: individual customization of the drive, transmission, AMG DYNAMICS, suspension, steering, and exhaust system.
Transmission
The 2024 Mercedes-AMG C 63 S comes standard with an AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 9G transmission system, in which a wet start-off clutch replaces the torque converter. It reduces weight and optimizes response to accelerator pedal input, especially during spurts and load changes.
The AMG RIDE CONTROL suspension with an Adaptive Damping System
The standard AMG RIDE CONTROL steel-spring suspension with Adaptive Damping System combines pronounced sporty dynamic handling with the comfort over long distances that is such a hallmark of the brand. The basis for this is provided by the front axle, with specially developed steering knuckles and suspension joints on the spring control arm, and by the rear axle, which also features elastokinematics designed for driving dynamics. Based on this, the damping at each wheel is continuously adjusted to the current demand – always taking into account the preselected suspension level, the driving style, and the condition of the road surface. In addition to an improvement in ride quality and comfort, this leads, above all, to an increase in driving safety. The system used has already proved its worth in GT3 customer sport and the AMG GT Black Series. The key components are dampers made of lightweight materials that can move significantly more hydraulic fluid than conventional systems: instead of a slim piston, a significantly larger disc displaces the oil in the damper. Each damper is fitted with two external electrohydraulic valves, which act independently of each other to control draw and pressure. In the process, the system’s control software continuously monitors operating data such as steering wheel angle, vehicle speed, acceleration, and body movement. In this way, the dampers are controlled within milliseconds as the situation requires. The result is that, even during extreme driving maneuvers or on poor roads, the wheels are always firmly on the ground. There is a choice of three different damping maps (“Comfort”, “Sport” and “Sport+”).
