Spy Shots! 2015 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Wagon Captured

Mercedes C63 AMG
Our spy photographers have snapped a few photos of the C63 AMG wagon while it was out testing. These shots come hot on the heels of the redesigned 2015 C-Class’ debut. The biggest change coming to the next C63 AMG is a new twin-turbo 5.5-litre V8 that will replace the 6.3-litre naturally aspirated V8, bringing the C63 AMG in line with the rest of the AMG lineup.

The M157 displaces exactly 5461cc with a bore of 98 mm and stroke of 90.5 mm. There are currently four states of output for this engine. In the E63 AMG and CLS63 AMG, this means 525 hp in base configuration, which is what the C63 AMG will likely make now.

Right now, this test vehicle is only a prototype for the 2014 C63 AMG Estate, but you can still tell it’s got wider bumpers and wheelarches plus AMG-specific rims. Compared to the regular C‑Class, it will have bigger air intakes. As the model gets nearer to its debut, it should drop more of its camouflage to reveal a sleek new super sports estate.
