2018 S560 and 2019 E450 Wagon.
First read from Mercedes on the 2018 E63 AMG
Looks to be coming out this summer and what really catches my attention is the 0 to 60 time of 3.3 Seconds~~~Plus the cylinder deactivation in conjunction with the 9 speed automatic could have this car getting over 25 mpg on the highway although epa numbers are not available as yet. https://www.mbusa.com/mercedes/futur...ALLERY-ID|0|19

I could see it complicating power delivery with the turbos. We'll see how it goes.

The power is really not that impressive. I doubt that it will dyno as high as the W212 E63 S which was quite under rated. However, I agree that MB has made a big mistake with the design. It is not nearly as muscular and aggressive looking as the W212 and looks far too similar to the current C class. Personally, I am elated that I purchased the last year of the W212. If I had to replace it with something similar, I'd be shopping at an Audi dealership.

The front end looks pretty angry, but the *** looks like the newer C-class (not a fan). The interior is interesting. Not exactly luxury looking, but maybe that was their point? I dunno. I'll never be able to afford one so it doesn't matter to me. lol :-)

As far as cylinder deactivation: I'm guessing it doesn't happen if you drive in S+... like the current auto shut-off. Before I even put on my seat belt, I twist the dial to S+. So a bit of a non-issue.
Looking forward to W213 wagon.
