2008 Mercedes Benz Cls63 Amg Designo on 2040-cars
Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, United States
|
Nobody executes the combination of performance and luxury like Mercedes-Benz, and this 2008 CLS63 AMG represents Mercedes-Benz' take on those two attributes in a mid-size sedan. This CLS63 AMG coupe is motivated by an impressive, envy-creating 6.3L V8 engine under the hood, capable of kicking out 507 horses. The transmission is the Mercedes-Benz' seven-speed automatic. This means the car always can find the optimum gear for any situation. This also allows the car to operate within respectable efficiency numbers for a V8-powered performance car. The CLS63 AMG features an air suspension system Mercedes-Benz calls Airmatic. The car floats on pneumatic spring-struts and variable rate shocks. The driver can select both the suspension sport mode and the ride height. The car will also automatically lower at speed to improve aerodynamic efficiency. Those looking for
luxury will appreciate the designo styling found on this CLS63 AMG. A
collection of materials, paints and finishes available for select models, designo takes
the best elements to create a total perspective not unlike a landscape
painting. For paintwork this car sports a unique, deep high-gloss Magno Alanite
Grey for an ultramodern low-sheen matte finish. This is complimented by the
Platinum White Nappa leather of the seats, and the black dinamica suede ceiling.
Black piano lacquer helps to accent the bold interior finish. Both front seats have
ten-way power adjusters, and feature three-position memory settings. Climate
control keeps no fewer than four zones comfortable. A high-end harmon/kardon
7.1 channel stereo system utilizes 12 speakers. Added for 2008 is Sirius
satellite radio, so drivers can even eliminate annoying ads from their
decompression chamber. The P2 Package includes DVD navigation, ventilated front
seats, bi-xenon headlamps, and a clever curve-illumination feature that helps
the driver "see" around bends in the road. Also included is
Mercedes-Benz' Keyless Go system. Those looking for performance will appreciate the AMG
Sport Package, which includes fat 40-series performance tires and
steering-wheel shift paddles. This Mercedes-Benz' also includes the adaptive
Distronic cruise control system, as well as the brand's Parktronic parking assist
system. Handling is improved via larger stabilizer bars, 19-inch AMG wheels,
and AMG six-piston front brakes. The steering wheel is a special AMG design. On
the CLS63, the Performance Package includes a limited-slip differential, and a
special AMG compound brake system. |

Test drive the Mercedes SLS AMG Electric Drive with Chris Harris
Thu, 11 Apr 2013It's hard to not like the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT. The all-aluminum coupe is fitted with a wonderful naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V8 delivering 583 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque. Not only does the burly combustion engine launch the two-seater to 60 miles per hour in less than four seconds, but it does so with one of the world's greatest exhaust soundtracks as it roars, burbles and cackles down the road.
But what happens when Mercedes-Benz takes away the V8 and its accompanying fire-burning song? Stripped of one of its most appealing assets, does the SLS lose its soul?
Chris Harris recently had the opportunity to take the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Electric Drive for a track spin in Europe. Sans gasoline, but with four electric motors providing a combined 740 horsepower (737 pound-feet of torque), all-electric all-wheel drive coupe uses sophisticated torque vectoring and a multi-mode operating system to put oversteer - drifting! - back into the equation. Fun? You bet. See for yourself, below.
These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky
Fri, 24 Aug 2012It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).

Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept crossover leaked ahead of Shanghai debut
Wed, 17 Apr 2013With just a few days left before the start of the Shanghai Motor Show, images of the Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept compact crossover have emerged online. The little 'ute is based on the small A-Class hatchback, and though it shares an identical wheelbase, is larger in every other dimension.
Looking like a rough-and-tumble five-door hatchback on the tippy toes of its 20-inch wheels, the GLA is most certainly destined for production in a toned down form that will borrow many bits and pieces from other cars based on this platform like the aforementioned A-Class and the CLA-Class sedan. Carscoop reports that the production version of the GLA will be revealed at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September of this year, with sales to the public starting in 2014.
Since it's based on the A-Class, we expect that the production GLA-Class will be powered by your choice of Mercedes' 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine and a diesel or two, and will offer transmissions that include the company's seven-speed DCT and perhaps a six-speed manual (at least in Europe). If the GLA follows the same path as the two cars before it, expect a GLA45 AMG producing over 300 horsepower, as well. As for what powers the GLA Concept, that just might remain a mystery until the vehicle is officially revealed in China.
