The second model in the AMG Sport range has been unveiled at the Detroit Motor Show 2015 in the form of the 2015 Mercedes-Benz C450 AMG 4Matic. We managed to snap some pictures of the car live.
Powering the Mercedes-Benz C450 AMG 4Matic is a 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged V6 engine. It delivers the same 362 hp at 5500 rpm and 382 lb-ft of torque between 2000 and 4200 rpm as the GLE450 AMG Coupe. As the name suggests, this power is sent through all four wheels via the company’s 4Matic all-wheel drive system via a 7G-Tronic seven-speed gearbox. This transmission has been slightly tweaked for use in the C450 AMG 4Matic compared to the AMG C63.
When it is all said and done, the C450 AMG 4Matic accelerates to 100 km/h in 4.9 seconds in sedan guise as well as 5.0 seconds flat with the estate body style. Top speed sits at an electronically limited 250 km/h. Alongside the performance figures, the Mercedes-Benz C450 AMG 4Matic can achieve 37.2 mpg on the combined fuel economy cycle while emitting 178 g/km of CO2 emissions.
