Mercedes-Benz will show the high-performance version of the new C-Class Coupé alongside the standard car when both models make their public debut next month.

The new Mercedes-AMG C63 Coupé is claimed to be the 'sportiest C-Class ever', offering a 4.0-litre bi-turbo V8 engine with 475hp in standard specification, or 510hp in the high-performance S.

"The new C 63 Coupé embodies our conception of progress: It offers impressive longitudinal and lateral dynamics at an extremely high level along with improved fuel economy," says Tobias Moers, chairman of the board of management of Mercedes-AMG.

"In addition, we are making a bold visual statement with the muscular design. Our customers can therefore experience the progress with each of their senses: seeing, hearing, feeling and, above all, driving!"
