2009 New York Auto Show Preview: 2010 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG Teaser

The all-new 2010 Mercedes Benz E63 AMG is expected to make its world debut next month at the New York Auto Show but the performance saloon has already won a reader's choice award for best sports car run by Germany’s Sport Auto magazine.

In honor of the decoration, Mercedes has released a teaser image for the new E63 that reveals its front-end design.

Clearly visible is a new bumper and alloy wheel design as well as some oversized cross-drilled brake discs.

Mercedes and its AMG engineers have been testing prototypes for the E-Class extensively – even recruiting former McLaren F1 ace Mika Häkkinen and race driver Klaus Ludwig to finetune it.

Despite current concerns about global warming and a possible end to the horsepower war between Germany’s in-house tuners, the new E63 will continue with the potent hand-built 6.2L V8, although the rest of the car’s mechanical package is expected to have been given a major makeover.

Power has been bumped up to 525hp (392kW). Engineers will be focusing more on improve handling and chassis strength, borrowing a number of features from the new C63 AMG.

The sporty AMG model is also tipped to receive a widened front track and unique steering ratio compared to the regular E-Class as well as a MacPherson strut and multi-link active suspension.

While the new E63 saloon is expected to go on sale soon after its New York debut, the Estate wagon version of the car isn’t due to arrive in showrooms until sometime next year.
