ALL-NEW MERCEDES-AMG EQS 53

-

The German auto maker Mercedes-AMG has just revealed its all-new performance all electric sedan, the EQS 53 AMG.


The car is meant to be a performance orientated version of the Mercedes-Benz EQS hatchback electric. Showing off different styling, one of the EQS 53's most noticeable feature is the imitation of the AMG panel grille with hot stamped chrome vertical struts and with AMG lettering as on the other AMG Models which use the traditional internal combustion engine. It also gets a new sporty multi-spoke wheel design.


The EQS 53 uses 2 electric motors with oje motor each at the front and rear axles with AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all wheel drive system. The base model of the EQS 53 comes with a total power output of 484 kW (658hp) with 950 Nm of torque, this translates to a 0-100 km/h sprint of just 3.8 seconds before topping out at a limited 220 km/h. With the optional AMG DYNAMIC PLUS package, the EQS 53 gets a maximum power output of 560 kW and 1,020 Nm of torque, acceleration from a standstill to 100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds. The top speed is also increased to a limited 250km/h with the Dynamic package.

The 2 Electric Motors have a lifespan of about 10 years or 250,000 kilometres. 

 

In the inside also, the new EQS 53 receives the AMG touch with AMG Sports seats and a red contrast around.


For a long time, Mercedes-AMG cars have been known for their glorious exhaust notes whether you inside or outside, you will still get to experience that AMG note so being an AMG model, the EQS 53 intends to keep it like that but not as you think. From the inside, the driver should be able to have a similar experience with the "AMG SOUND EXPERIENCE". The sound system uses loudspeakers, shakers and a sound generator give the driver an AMG sound experience of which will in two versions, either "Authentic" or "Performance". This sound will be generated from both inside and out.

The car also comes with Rear-Axle steering as standard with a steering angle of 9 degrees which should better the handling of the vehicle. Þhe turning circle is also greatly reduced to that of compact class level cars. At low speeds not exceeding 60 km/h the rear wheels will turn in the opposite direction to the front wheels to make it easy to manoeuvre and at high speeds exceeding 60 km/h the rear wheels should turn in the same direction as the front ones which results in improved handling, stability and safety. 


5 Driving Modes are available on the new Mercedes EQS 53 AMG. One can choose from, SLIPPERY, COMFORT, SPORT, SPORT+ and Individual. Suspension settings, the steering, AMG Dynamics and the AMG Sound Experience will all be suited to each driving mode.

Welcome the new CLE Coupe & Cabriolet model from Mercedes. Mercedes-Benz has finally been unveiled the long awaited CLE Coupe for the 2024 model year and it arrives in style with a load of technology, as one would have expected. The new luxury Coupe bridges the gap left by the, now discontinued, Mercedes-Benz C-Class and E-Class Coupes and Cabriolets from their previous generations, i.e. the W205 and W213 generations. That can also give you an idea of the car's size but in numbers that is: -4.9m in length -1.8m in width -1.4m in height The CLE features a shark nose-like design evident by the forward leaning front section like most of the Mercedes cars of late. Looked at carefully, the front end design is very similar to that of the brand's CLA Coupe. On to the sides, the Coupe retains a design very similar to that of the W205 (C205) C-Class Coupe more especially on the c-pillars. At the rear, the design is a new one, the CLE Coupe features taillights similar to those found ...

  Citan vs Caddy? Which one? Will the new revised Citan shake the Caddy's sales? The Citan is based on the Renault Kangoo as one can see from just the overall profile of the Citan. The engines are also from the French auto maker but that's not new, Mercedes has been using Renault engines for quite a while now. Both vehicles are available in either passenger or cargo configurations. #MercedesBenz #Citan #Volkswagen #Caddy

The rare & forgotten Japanese AMG.

 Hello readers, today we will take a look back at one of the rarest AMG tuned cars ever made, the elegant Mitsubishi Galant AMG.  Yes you read that right, AMG! Let us take you on a history lesson for a second shall we? You see, back in 1989 before AMG became a Mercedes only in-house tuner in 1999, Mitsubishi struck a deal with them to tune the Galant to make it better.  The Mitsubishi Galant AMG was produced from 1989 to 1991 in a very limited number. Only 500 units were made and they were only sold within the Japanese market. The German tuner reworked the internals of Mitsubishi's 4G63 engine to make more power, yes the engine was not built from scratch by AMG under the One Man, One Engine principle.  AMG also made a few touches to the Galant's exterior. The suspension was also reworked. Unlike the other AMG "touched" Mitsubishi, the Debonaire V 3000 Royal AMG, the Galant had a lot that was done to it. We shall talk about the Debonair on another day. With AMG's m...
