Mounted atop every AMG engine is a small plaque bearing the signature
of the single technician who crafted it by hand. More than a crown jewel
of racing royalty, it authenticates a philosophy that's been the driving force
behind championship racecars for 46 years. For the high-performance
AMG automobiles that carry this motorsports pedigree to the streets of
the world, "One man, one engine" is far more than a spiritual legacy. It's
also tangibly evident in the meticulous engineering, proven endurance and
superlative performance that three letters — and one signature — certify.
The heart of the CLS 63 AMG 4

is its handcrafted 5.5‑liter biturbo V‑8.

of torque reduce its 0–60‑mph dash to
a swift 3.7 seconds.

clutch. A paddle‑shifted Manual mode
offers 100‑millisecond upshifts, while
its rev‑matched downshifts are met with

you choose among four modes for the
transmission, three for the suspension,
and three for the ESP.
