Mercedes-Benz C-Class AMG Vs Lexus ES 350h FAQs

The price of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class AMG in India starts from an ex-showroom price of ₹94.03 lakh for the AMG C 43 4MATIC+. The top-end AMG C 63 S E PERFORMANCE is priced at ₹1.95 crore (ex-showroom).

The C 63 S E PERFORMANCE can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds and has an electronically limited top speed of 280 km/h.

Both AMG variants use an AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 9-speed automatic transmission, which replaces the traditional torque converter with a wet clutch for faster and more responsive shifts. In everyday language, this means the car changes gears lightning fast, keeping the power flowing without hesitation, so every acceleration feels sharp and thrilling, almost like a race car tuned for the road.

Yes, both the AMG C 43 and the AMG C 63 S E PERFORMANCE feature the AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel-drive system, which provides excellent traction and handling. In simple terms, it makes sure power goes to all four wheels smartly, so you get more grip when the road is wet, more control when cornering fast, and a confident drive even when you push the car’s limits.

The interior features an AMG-specific Widescreen Cockpit with dual digital displays, including an 11.9-inch touchscreen with MBUX. It also gets AMG-specific performance seats, a sports steering wheel, and custom ambient lighting.

Yes, the AMG C 43 and C 63 S E PERFORMANCE come with standard rear-axle steering, which enhances agility at low speeds and improves stability at high speeds. In simple words, the back wheels also turn slightly with the front ones, making parking and tight turns easier, while at high speeds it feels like the car is glued to the road, giving you sharper control and more confidence.

The AMG variants have a more aggressive exterior with an AMG-specific Panamericana grille, larger air intakes, flared wheel arches, a rear diffuser, and unique alloy wheel designs. In simple terms, the car looks meaner and sportier than the regular C-Class, turning heads on the road and leaving no doubt that it’s built for both style and serious performance.

The AMG C 43 offers a boot space of 435 litres, while the hybrid components of the C 63 S E PERFORMANCE reduce its boot space to 279 litres. To give you an idea, the C 43 can take in about three medium trolley bags plus some smaller bags, while the C 63’s tighter boot is better suited for one large suitcase and a couple of duffle bags, so you may need to pack a bit smarter if you pick the hybrid powerhouse.

The luxury sedan is available in two distinct variants: Exquisite and Luxury.

It features a 2.5-litre (2487 cc) four-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol engine.

It is a self-charging strong hybrid electric vehicle (SHEV) that seamlessly switches between electric and petrol power.

The sedan delivers an impressive certified fuel efficiency of 22.5 kmpl.

It features a front-wheel-drive (FWD) system coupled with an electronically controlled continuously variable transmission (e-CVT).
