The engine

M177

Twin-Turbo V8 PHEV

AMG's hot-vee biturbo V8 delivers a deep, hard-hitting wall of torque, now bolstered by a rear electric motor for instant launch punch and a combined 831 hp. The character is brutal mid-range thrust with electrified shove off the line.

The 4.0L M177 V8 is hand-assembled at AMG's Affalterbach works under the 'One Man, One Engine' philosophy, where a single technician builds each unit; the E Performance hybrid layer draws on Mercedes-AMG's Formula 1 program.
