But the good news is coming, according to overseas car media reports,Mercedes-AMG C-Class and Mercedes-AMG E-Class to return with V8sTo satisfy those friends who are dissatisfied with small-displacement models, in addition, a power combination of V8+motor will also be launched, which will come out in 2026.

The reason for this is that compared with competing products, such as BMW M series and Audi RS series, the current situation of Mercedes-AMG is indeed not optimistic.

Needless to say, the C 63, even the most powerful version of the AMG E-class is only equipped with a straight-six + plug-in hybrid. Compared with Audi and BMW, it really has no advantage, so this has become a dilemma that AMG must face, so the solution Simple and brutal, too: just roll out a V8-powered model.

At present, the strongest V8-powered model in the AMG family is the GT 63 SE Performance.It is equipped with a V8 plug-in hybrid system with a maximum output of 831 horsepowerif the C-class and E-class also want to use this set of power, then only need to carry out the corresponding power limit according to the positioning and selling price, which is relatively easy to achieve.
