The Mercedes-AMG E63 S Wagon isn’t just a family car; it’s a statement. It’s a declaration that practicality and pulse-raising performance can coexist, wrapped in the sophisticated and undeniably cool package that only Mercedes-Benz can deliver. Stepping inside the E-Class cabin is an exercise in refined comfort and understated sporting luxury. Clean lines and premium materials define the space, offering generous room for five adults to relax in supportive seats. Beyond passenger comfort, the wagon body style truly shines, offering a substantial 35 cubic feet of cargo space ready for everyday errands or weekend getaways. Need to move larger items? Fold down the rear seats and that space expands dramatically to 64 cubic feet, creating a near-flat loading floor capable of swallowing furniture, sports equipment, or whatever life throws your way.
The AMG enhancements elevate the interior experience, reminding you this is no ordinary wagon. The Affalterbach logo proudly embossed on the leather headrests immediately signals the performance pedigree. Your hands grip the signature AMG steering wheel, and your feet rest on machined aluminum pedals, tactile reminders of the power that lies beneath the hood.
Speaking of power, the heart of the 2021 Mercedes-AMG E63 S Wagon is the magnificent, hand-built twin-turbo V8 engine. This engineering masterpiece unleashes a breathtaking 603 horsepower and a colossal 627 lb-ft of torque. Each engine is meticulously assembled by a single AMG engineer, a testament to the brand’s commitment to craftsmanship and performance. Our particular engine, signed by Timo Nordheim, exemplifies this dedication with a small plaque under the hood serving as a badge of honor. The power delivery is nothing short of phenomenal – smooth, consistent, and seemingly endless as it surges towards the redline. The nine-speed automatic transmission complements the engine perfectly, offering imperceptible gear changes in everyday driving and lightning-fast shifts when you demand maximum performance.
Harnessing this immense power is the remarkable AMG all-wheel-drive system. This sophisticated system, coupled with a limited-slip differential and advanced traction control, works tirelessly to distribute power optimally to all four twenty-inch wheels. The result is astonishing grip, allowing you to confidently put down the power in any condition. But the E63 S Wagon has another trick up its sleeve for the truly adventurous driver: Drift Mode. Yes, this family wagon can transform into a rear-wheel-drive drifting machine at the push of a button. A family wagon with drift mode? It’s a testament to AMG’s playful side and their understanding that driving should be exhilarating. The Mercedes-AMG E63 S Wagon is a unique blend of practicality, luxury, and raw, unadulterated performance – a true automotive unicorn that delivers on every front.
