梅赛德斯-奔驰S63 AMG E
The S-Class has always played an important role in Mercedes-AMG models. Today, the new Mercedes AMG S63 E performance with AMG hybrid technology is once again the benchmark in this segment. This model combines AMG's 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo engine with AMG's dedicated hybrid powertrain and AMG's high-performance battery (HPB) system. The newly developed HPB 150 battery system is based on the HPB 80's high-performance direct-cooled battery cells. The energy density increased from 6.1 kWh for HPB 80 to 13.1 kWh for HPB 150. This increases the all-electric range to 33 km.

High-quality graphics in the multimedia display show the power flow of the entire drive system, the speed, output, torque and temperature of the motor, and the battery temperature.
loudspeaker
The Dolby Atmos ® sound format takes the in-room audio experience to the next level. Individual instruments or sounds in the in-car mix can be placed around the listening area. Thus, a new kind of sound animation is possible: while traditional stereo systems provide two channels for the speakers, Dolby Atmos ® can use the entire range and bring a 360-degree experience.
4. AMG double-spoke high-performance steering wheel:
AMG two-spoke high-performance steering wheel
The AMG two-spoke high-performance steering wheel, with its unique two-spoke design and seamlessly integrated shift buttons, also contributes to AMG's signature look. The AMG steering wheel buttons impress with their excellent display and intuitive operating logic. They allow the control of important driving functions and all driving modes without the driver's hands taking their hands off the steering wheel. The hybrid drive mode can also be selected via the steering wheel buttons.
Chassis layout
AMG's unique E PERFORMANCE hybrid drive consists of an internal combustion engine at the front and an electric motor at the rear
In the new Mercedes-AMG S63 E PERFORMANCE, a 4.0-litre V8 twin-turbo engine is combined with a permanent magnet synchronous electric motor, a high-performance battery developed in Affarterbach and a fully variable AMG PERFORMANCE 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive system. With a system output of 802 hp and a maximum system torque of 1,430 Nm, the driving performance is impressive: acceleration from zero to 100 km/h in just 3.3 seconds.
Powertrain layout
The 190 hp electric motor is located on the rear axle and is integrated with an electrically shifted two-speed transmission and an electronically controlled limited-slip rear differential to form a compact electric drive unit (EDU). Experts refer to this layout as the P3 hybrid system. The high-performance battery is also located in the rear above the rear axle.
The decisive advantage of this EDU position is the bypassing of the 8-speed transmission connected to the V9 engine. Since it is located behind the transmission, it is possible to make full use of the torque of the two drive units. The result: 1,430 Nm of system torque, a new record for its class.
5、永磁同步电机（PSM）：
The PSM is equipped with a hollow rotor made of permanent magnets, so it can be mounted around the output shaft of the left rear wheel. The motor is controlled by the power electronics, which are also located on the electric drive unit (EDU) and directly translate the accelerator pedal command to properly start the PSM motor. In addition, the sensitive control of the electric motor adjusts the speed during gear shifts via a two-speed transmission. This means that the transmission in the electric drive unit (EDU) does not require any mechanical synchronization at all. As a result, the boost torque of the motor can also be used at higher speeds. The maximum torque of the motor is available from the first lap, but it drops again at higher rpm. Thus, the second gear, which is engaged at higher speeds, brings the motor into the range with lower speeds, so that it can support the operation of the combustion engine throughout the speed range.
6. AMG high-performance batteries inspired by Formula 1 and developed in Affarterbach:
The AMG high-performance battery combines high power that can be called up quickly and continuously with low weight to improve the overall performance of the vehicle
When developing the electrification strategy, it was clear from the outset that all important components would be developed in Affarterbach. These include the AMG High Performance Battery (HPB). The lithium-ion energy storage system was developed inspired by the technology used in the Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team's Formula 1 hybrid car. A team of experts from Brixworth, the Formula 1 engine manufacturer, High Performance Powertrain (HPP), worked closely with the Mercedes-AMG division. The AMG high-performance battery combines high power that can be called up quickly and continuously with low weight to improve the overall performance of the vehicle.
7. 70 kW continuous output and 140 kW peak output:
The S63 E performance has a high-performance battery capacity of 13.1 kWh. It provides the electric motor with 70 kW of continuous mechanical power and 140 kW of peak mechanical power (for 10 seconds). External charging can be carried out via a 3.7 kW on-board AC charger at a charging station, wall cabinet or home outlet. Batteries are designed to power and draw power quickly, not for the longest possible range.
8. Continuously promote innovation: direct cooling technology for battery cells:
The basis for the high performance of the AMG 400-volt battery is direct cooling: a high-tech coolant based on a non-conductive liquid flows around all 1,200 cells and cools them individually. Each battery needs a defined temperature for optimal power delivery. If the energy storage unit becomes too cold or too hot, it will temporarily lose significant power delivery, or it will have to be turned off to avoid damage if the temperature is too high. Therefore, the consistent temperature of a battery has a decisive impact on its performance, service life and safety. Conventional cooling systems use only air or water to indirectly cool the entire battery pack and quickly reach their limits. If thermal management does not perform its functions optimally, the battery is at risk of premature aging.
For the direct cooling technology, the AMG team had to develop a new cooling module with millimeter thickness. With the help of a specially developed high-performance electric pump, approximately 14 litres of coolant circulates through each battery from top to bottom. During this process, the coolant also flows through an oil/water heat exchanger that is directly connected to the battery. This conducts heat to one of the vehicle's two cryogenic circuits (LT). From there, it enters a cryocooler at the front of the car, releasing heat into the outside air. This system is designed to ensure that the heat in the battery is evenly distributed.
The result is that the battery is always within an optimal operating temperature window of an average of 45 degrees Celsius, regardless of the frequency of charging or discharging. It is likely that the average temperature was exceeded at high speeds. Therefore, the protection mechanism is set up so that maximum power can be obtained from the battery for the subsequent reduction of the temperature level again by direct cooling. Conventional cooling systems can't cope with this, and the battery can't make the most of its capacity. This is not the case with AMG high-performance batteries: the battery retains its high-performance capacity even under heavy loads, with frequent acceleration (battery discharge) and deceleration (battery charging).
Batteries with very high power densities can only be used with effective direct cooling. Thanks to this stand-alone solution, the battery system is particularly light and compact. The material-saving conductor track concept also contributes to weight reduction. The lightweight and robust crash construction of the aluminium housing ensures maximum safety.
9. The regeneration energy recovery system can be selected in four stages:
Since high-performance batteries are always within an optimal temperature window of around 45 degrees, kinetic energy recovery can also be optimized: Usually batteries generate intense heat at high regeneration capacity, so energy recovery must be limited.
Kinetic energy recovery begins when the driver takes his foot off the accelerator pedal, i.e. in overdrive mode, without touching the brake pedal. This recharges the battery and generates braking torque. This, in turn, saves pressure on the wheel brakes: depending on the level of recovery and the traffic situation, they do not need to be operated at all. Another advantage of the regenerative system is that on steep slopes, the system works like an engine brake and delivers energy to the battery. The driver can use the right-hand AMG steering wheel button to select between four different levels of regenerative systems. With the exception of the "Slippery" mode, which applies to all driving modes as well as "ESP Sport Control" or "ESP Off", the recuperation configuration also varies depending on the driving mode.
The four different levels of regenerative braking are as follows:
Class 0: This is similar to a conventional internal combustion engine model with a manual transmission. If the driver releases the throttle, the car slides with minimal resistance. The level of recovery is very low and is only used to maintain the vehicle's power supply. When the internal combustion engine is switched off, frictional losses in the powertrain are reduced to a minimum.
Level 1: This is the default. The regeneration system is obvious to the driver. It is roughly equivalent to the deceleration effect of a conventional internal combustion engine when the clutch is engaged.
Level 2: Stronger regeneration. When driving in traffic, there is little need to press the brake pedal.
Level 3: Highest energy recovery. Here, so-called "one-pedal" driving is almost possible, just like a pure electric vehicle. Depending on the driving situation, more than 90 kilowatts of power can be fed back into the battery.
10. Electricity is always available:
The basic operating strategy is derived from the hybrid powerplant of the Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula 1 car. As in top motorsport, maximum propulsion is always available when the driver presses the throttle to help with strong acceleration or quick overtaking when exiting corners. With high recovery performance and demand-based charging, power can be recalled at any time and regenerated frequently. The car's specific battery concept allows for an optimal compromise between maximum driving dynamics and modern efficiency. All components are intelligently coordinated with each other: performance gains can be experienced directly.
11. AMG's seven driving modes:
AMG DYNAMIC SELECT'S SEVEN DRIVING MODES – ELECTRIC – COMFORT – BATTERY HOLD – SPORT – SPORT + – COAST AND I PERSONAL – ARE ALL TAILORED TO THE LATEST DRIVING TECHNIQUES. As a result, they offer a wide range of driving experiences, from efficient to dynamic. The driving mode adjusts important parameters: drive and transmission response, steering characteristics, chassis damping. The boost power of the electric motor also depends on the respective drive mode. It can be selected via the display in the center console or the AMG steering wheel buttons. However, one thing is the same in all modes: the peak power of the motor can be easily recalled via the force downshift function. The tactile accelerator pedal provides a tangible pressure point that the driver's foot must overcome.
As standard, the high-performance hybrid starts silently in "Comfort" driving mode ("silent mode") when the motor is turned on. In the instrument cluster, the Ready icon indicates that the vehicle is ready to drive. In addition, AMG's powerful, loud start-up sound is emitted internally through the vehicle's speakers as acoustic feedback to show readiness. A slight press of the accelerator pedal will kick the AMG Performance hybrid into action.
12. Dynamic control combines flexibility with stability:
The integration of the AMG DYNAMICS dynamic control system is also part of the standard specification. It affects the control strategy of the ESP® (Electronic Stability Program), all-wheel drive, and electronically controlled limited-slip rear differentials. This increases agility without compromising the stability of the vehicle. Of particular note is the AMG DYNAMICS control system, which determines the vehicle's reaction. Among other things, the system uses available sensors to determine velocity, lateral acceleration, steering angle, and yaw velocity.
With intelligent pre-control, vehicle behavior can be predicted based on driver behavior and sensor data. The supervision system is tailored to the driver's dynamic driving skills, and the system does not have any obvious or disruptive intervention. The result is a realistic driving experience with high cornering dynamics and optimal traction, with high stability and predictable handling. Even experienced drivers can get optimal support without being protected by the system.
13. AMG 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo engine:
AMG 4.0 V8 twin-turbo engine
At the heart of the P3 hybrid system is the AMG 4.0 V8 twin-turbo engine, which in this case produces 612 horsepower. and a maximum torque of 900 Nm. The most important design features of the engine include two twin-scroll turbochargers. The position between the two cylinder banks shortens the path of the exhaust gases to the turbocharger and the compressed fresh air to the combustion chamber. The result is an immediate response. Another important feature is the belt-driven starter generator (RSG), which is integrated into the 400-volt electrical system. This combines the starter and alternator into a single unit and has enough power to start the V8 engine at the same time at all times.
14. For the first time, the S-class adopts an active engine mount:
THE S63 E PERFORMANCE IS THE ONLY MODEL IN THIS SEGMENT TO BE EQUIPPED WITH AN ACTIVE ENGINE MOUNT. The bearings solve the conflict between the high comfort due to the soft connection of the powertrain and the optimal driving dynamics due to the hard connection: they can infinitely adjust the stiffness according to the current driving conditions. The vehicle's sensors detect the corresponding driving situation and the resulting engine vibration behavior and pass this information on to the control unit. This controls the force with which the engine is connected to the body. The biggest advantage is that the gap between performance and comfort has widened further.
15. Short shift time and high efficiency: AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 9G gearbox:
In the AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 9G gearbox (MCT = Multi-Clutch Transmission), the wet-start clutch replaces the torque converter. It reduces weight and, thanks to its lower inertia, optimizes the response to accelerator pedal inputs, especially during acceleration and high load changes. Finely tuned software ensures short shift times and quick multiple downshifts when needed. Thanks to the double separation function in the "Sport" and "Sport+" driving modes, it offers a particularly emotional shifting experience. Defined ignition interventions allow gear switching to be faster than in other modes. In all driving procedures, the start takes place in first gear to guarantee a dynamic driving experience at all times. There's also the RACE START function, which ensures optimal acceleration from a standstill. In manual mode "M", the transmission responds immediately and accurately to manual shift commands from the driver and executes them at lightning speed.
16、全可变四轮驱动AMG Performance 4MATIC+：
The AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive system combines the advantages of different drive concepts: Fully variable torque distribution on the front and rear axles ensures optimum traction at physical limits. Drivers can rely on high driving stability and safety in any conditions: in dry, wet or snowy terrain. On the basis of a complex matrix that integrates intelligent control into the overall vehicle system architecture, the transition from rear-wheel drive to all-wheel drive and from all-wheel drive to rear-wheel drive is constantly taking place.
An electromechanically controlled clutch connects the permanently driven rear axle to the front axle variably. The optimal possible torque distribution is continuously calculated based on driving conditions and the driver's input. In addition to traction and lateral power, all-wheel drive also improves longitudinal power for more powerful acceleration.
17. High torsional rigidity: Widely reinforced body shell:
The stable body shell of the AMG S-Class is the basis for high driving dynamics and exceptional comfort. At the front, there is an aluminum stabilizer under the V8 twin-turbo engine. It increases torsional stiffness at the front end, which improves feedback to the driver, especially when cornering. The body shell structure is also strengthened by lateral supports at the suspension mounting points.
At the rear, the underbody has diagonal struts made of strong, lightweight aluminum, which significantly improves the driving experience. Specific loading compartment grooves made of lightweight fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) accommodate AMG's high-performance batteries while increasing the stiffness of the body shell in this area.
18、AMG RIDE CONTROL+标配自适应减震悬架：
The AMG RIDE CONTROL+ suspension is based on an air suspension with automatic level control, combined with adaptive adjustable damping. The air suspension struts are filled with air depending on the situation, so softer or stiffer settings can be made. Another feature is the level control system, which automatically lowers the S-Class body by 10 mm at speeds above 120 km/h.
With the help of two continuously variable control valves, the damping force can be precisely adjusted to different driving conditions and driving modes: one valve controls the rebound damping, i.e. the force generated when the wheel rebounds, and the other valve controls the compression damping when the wheel is compressed. The rebound phase and the compression phase are controlled independently of each other. The AMG development team was able to significantly increase the gap between sportiness and comfort by widening the gap between the minimum and maximum damping force characteristics and providing greater flexibility in feature mapping. Thanks to the special design of the valve, the shock absorber reacts quickly and sensitively to changing road surfaces and driving conditions.
The driver can pre-select the basic settings via the AMG DYNAMIC SELECT driving mode: at the touch of a button, the handling characteristics change, for example, from full dynamics in "Sport+" mode to smooth cruising in the "Comfort" setting. In addition, it can be adjusted independently of the driving mode in three stages ("Comfort", "Sport" and "Sport+") via dedicated buttons. The system's control software continuously monitors operating data such as steering wheel angle, vehicle speed, acceleration and body movement. In this way, the damper can be controlled within milliseconds depending on the situation. As a result, the wheels are always firmly anchored to the ground, even during extreme driving maneuvers or on poor roads.
19. Standard active roll stabilization function:
With ultrasonic electronics and active hydraulic components that specifically compensate for vehicle fluctuations, you can enjoy dynamic AMG control combined with first-class driving comfort
Another feature makes a decisive contribution to AMG's characteristic high driving dynamics: AMG Active Ride Control Active Roll Stabilisation. Instead of using a traditional rigid anti-roll bar, the system compensates for body movements electromechanically. For this purpose, the anti-roll bars on the front and rear axles are divided into two parts. In the middle is an electromechanical actuator in which a three-stage planetary gear is integrated. When the road surface is uneven or the driving style is moderate, the actuator actively disengages the two parts of the stabilizer, thus improving driving comfort.
In addition, the system not only reduces rolling motion when cornering, but also adjusts steering and load cycle behavior more precisely. In addition, it improves ride comfort when driving in a straight line, for example, because the stimulation of one-sided road bumps is balanced. The movement of the body can be actively and optimally adjusted according to the driving conditions. This allows the driver to experience the typical driving characteristics of AMG in terms of power, precision and feedback in more depth.
To meet the high power requirements, the system is based on an additional 48-volt on-board system. Another advantage compared to the usual hydraulic-based systems is the significantly faster response. The AMG control system can adjust the vehicle status up to 500 times per second. In addition, the weight of the components is lower compared to hydraulic solutions.
20. The high-performance hybrid drive can control the traction of one wheel, not the ESP:
The control of vehicle dynamics also benefits from the hybrid drive. Unlike ESP's® motor intervention, the motor can also control traction once the wheels signal too much slippage. For this purpose, the intelligent control system reduces the motor drive torque transmitted to the wheels via the limited-slip rear differential. As a result, the ESP® does not have to throttle the internal combustion engine, or only at a later date. Advantages: As a result, the internal combustion engine can operate at higher torques. This then increases flexibility. In addition, the power that is otherwise reduced can be used to charge the battery.
21. Three-stage AMG parameter steering and standard rear axle steering:
The steering layout also helps to improve power and comfort. For example, the three-stage AMG parametric steering system has a variable steering geometry that adapts to the selected driving mode. Steering assistance decreases at high speeds and increases steadily at low speeds. As a result, only relatively little force is required at low speeds, as well as when maneuvering and stopping. When the speed is faster, optimal control of the vehicle will be maintained. In the "Sport" and "Sport+" suspension settings, the steering wheel also provides more feedback on the driving status.
The maximum steering angle for standard rear-axle steering is 2.5 degrees. So far, the rear wheels can turn in the opposite direction to the front wheels at speeds up to 100 km / h
The maximum steering angle for standard rear-axle steering is 2.5 degrees. SO FAR, THE REAR WHEELS CAN TURN IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION TO THE FRONT WHEELS AT SPEEDS OF UP TO 100 KM/H (DEPENDING ON THE AMG DYNAMICS SETTINGS). This actually shortens the wheelbase and significantly improves cornering agility, reducing steering effort and improving maneuverability. This significantly reduces the number of turning circles when cornering or stopping. When the speed exceeds 100 km/h (depending on the AMG DYNAMICS settings), the rear wheels rotate parallel to the front wheels. The virtual expansion of the wheelbase has a positive effect on driving stability: it builds up lateral forces more quickly when changing direction, allowing the vehicle to respond more directly to steering commands. The response of the rear-axle steering depends on the selected AMG dynamically selective driving mode.
The interplay of active roll stabilization and active rear-axle steering helps to further extend the driving behavior. On the one hand, the AMG S-Class is a comfortable touring sedan with absolutely stable handling at high speeds. On the other hand, the driver can call up the sporty characteristics of agile and light foot feel and maneuverability at the touch of a button.
22. Good control and fade resistance: AMG high-performance composite braking system:
In order to maintain extreme power and performance, the AMG High Performance Composite Brake System is standard with 6-piston fixed calipers at the front and 1-piston floating calipers at the rear. The brake discs on the front axle measure 400 x 38 mm and the brake pads on the rear axle measure 380 x 32 mm. The braking system impresses with its very short braking distance, maximum stability and resistance to fading when used in large quantities. In addition, it has a long service life and a particularly fast response time. Comfort features include hill start assist and start/dry braking in wet conditions. With the ignition switched off and the vehicle stationary, the transmission automatically selects the parking position "P". At the same time, the electric parking brake is automatically released at start. The AMG ceramic high-performance composite braking system is available. Lightweight brake materials reduce weight and reduce unsprung mass.
23. Use a variety of assistance systems to drive more comfortably and safely:
Many new or enhanced driver assistance systems support the driver. They take the stress out of everyday driving by providing assistance in specific situations such as speed adaptation, distance control, steering, and lane changes. Drivers can stay in good health longer and reach their destination safer and more comfortably. In the event of a hazard, for example, if an accident is imminent due to negligence, driver assistance systems can react to the hazard depending on the situation, thereby reducing the severity of a possible collision or even avoiding it altogether.
The new assistance display in the driver display clearly shows how the driver assistance system works in a full-screen view. Drivers identify their own cars, lanes, lane markings, and other road users, such as cars, trucks, and two-wheelers, in an abstract view. In the description of the surrounding environment, the state of the system and the operation of the assistant are visualized. The new animation-assisted display is based on real-time generated 3D scenes. This dynamic, high-quality performance makes the operation of driver assistance systems transparent and an augmented reality driving experience.
