In July, CAR magazine strapped its test equipment to the new-generation Mercedes-AMG C63 S. Now donning the ‘E Performance’ moniker, the pinnacle C, though having ditched the V8 employed by its forebear in favour of a petrol-electric setup, proved it has retained a sense of presence and occasion. In addition, its test figures were astounding.
Now, the C63 S E Performance’s SUV sibling, in addition to the GLC 43, has made landfall on local shores, with Mercedes-Benz SA releasing pricing for the performance-focused GLC derivatives.
