Mercedes-Benz may not be every man's ultimate dream, but no man can resist the powerful temptation of Mercedes-AMG.
For a long time in the past, AMG, which represents Mercedes' ultimate performance, has been in a high position, and the price threshold of the most entry-level AMG A45 is still around 500,000, and the high price is far away from ordinary consumers. With the launch of the AMG 35/43 series, the price of AMG has gradually moved closer to the ordinary version of the model, but some people have questioned whether the AMG without the signature of the "one person, one machine" engineer can also be called AMG?
Nowadays, the AMG 43 series has officially "entered the personnel", incarnated into a regular army, the engine nameplate appeared on the representative of "one person, one machine" engineer signature, the new generation of AMG C43 not only enjoyed the formal preparation treatment, while the hardware was fully upgraded, its performance level was almost one or two levels higher than the old model.
Compared with the ordinary version of the new C-class, the appearance change of AMG C43 is not surprising, the AMG family's exclusive attribute grille, the front bumper with more exaggerated air intakes have appeared on the front face of the new car, plus the AMG badge in the lower left corner of the middle network, basically can see at a glance that it is not an ordinary C-class.
The exclusive logo of the front fenders is not absent, but it has evolved from the "BITURBO" of the old model to the "TURBO ELECTRIFIED", indicating that this is an AMG with electrification.
The original factory really four out of the exhaust, this is how many ordinary version of the C-class owners are willing to spend money to modify the hardware, aside from the problem of the beauty of the sound and size, just four exhaust holes are enough to scare people. As a performance car, the ducktail tail on the tail compartment cover is essential, but don't expect it to provide extra downforce, the visual effect is far greater than the actual effect.
The AMG C43 comes standard with 18-inch wheels and is available in 19 or even 20-inch styles. The front wheels are equipped with a four-piston caliper + punch disc, while the rear wheels are single pistons.
In addition to the sedan version, the new AMG C43 Travel Edition was also released at the same time, elegant and full tail styling, while taking into account performance and use, how many men can dream of the ideal car?
Like the old AMG C43, the interior of the new model also uses fur + red stitching to create a fighting atmosphere, and the carbon fiber trim that once belonged only to the AMG C63 S was directly lowered to the interior of the C43, and directly equipped with an integrated barrel chair, at this moment, the old C43 owner will be silent, and the old C63 owner will cry.
In terms of power, the new AMG C43 is equipped with a 2.0T four-cylinder turbocharged engine, while the displacement and number of cylinders are reduced, the engine power is significantly improved, the maximum power of the engine codenamed M139 reaches 408Ps, the peak torque is 500N·m, and the acceleration time of the sedan version and the travel version is 4.6 seconds and 4.7 seconds respectively, which is 0.1 seconds faster than the old model. The reason why such a perverted power can be squeezed out is inseparable from the F1 technology electronic turbine, and the 48V light mixing system works in synergy with the electronic exhaust gas turbine to achieve the best power response.
The AMG C43 is equipped with a 9-speed dual-clutch transmission (MCT) for the first time, and the much-maligned transmission response problem of the old model may be solved, and the all-wheel drive system is standard, and the maximum power distribution between the front and rear wheels can reach 31%:69%. In addition, the new AMG C43 will be equipped with a rear wheel steering system at an angle of 2.5 degrees.
In the list of driving modes, the race Start (competitive start mode) is added, which can achieve faster stationary start acceleration ability, and it can also be simply understood as "traffic light to see who collapses who" mode.
Not surprisingly, the new AMG C43 series will be officially unveiled in the Chinese market this year, I don't know if it can make the old AMG C43 owners want to move, and after that, Mercedes-AMG will also launch a stronger C63 model, I want to say, the new C43 is so strong, C63 how strong to what?
