JAKARTA - The high performance Division of Mercedes-AMG has marketed C 63 S E Performance since 2023 in order to continue the success of the previous generation.
Unfortunately, this car was not well received by Mercedes-AMG lovers as a high-performance car because the manufacturer had replaced the existing 4.0 liter V8 engine in the previous generation to 2.0 liter 4-cylinder coupled with a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) system.
This was acknowledged by the CEO of Mercedes-AMG, Michael Schiebe admitted that the new configuration of this car made C 63 lose a lot of enthusiasts and AMG car fans.
We see some of our loyal customers having trouble with this concept. Of course, no doubt we also lost some customers who only liked V8," Scheebe said as quoted by Car Magazine, Wednesday, January 22.
Despite this, Schiebe said it would never stop offering cars with this technology to its customers and promised to improve its capabilities according to the characteristics of AMG.
We have gone a long way forward with this technology, but we should have explained this technology more to our sales staff and customers. We will continue to do that and continue to improve it, "explained Schiebe.
