Cool 2022 C63 with possibly 603HP??

Could this be a sign for the upcoming C63 W206 power plant? #hopeful

It's the heavier GLE not GLC...likely using the same power plant as the current E-63? ...so. my guess is "no".

This is what we'll see in the GT, but not in the C class

If you read the poor writing by motor1, they state "603HP" but then say there is an additional 21HP from the electric motor...so it sounds like this is actually a 624HP hybrid power plant...

makes sense that the previous 600HP vehicles will increase to 624HP to portray an "upgrade" in the E63, etc.

which means, to me, the same electric motor will be in the C63 and be mated to a V8 and produce 524HP (i.e. 21HP more than in the W205). that would be the correct way for AMG to market the added performance in a new C63 model...

V8 and sound is all that is important most to me for this type of car

It can have 800hp but if it's an inline-4, sorry hard pass

could not agree more, they need to figure this out.
