What It's Like To Drive The Fastest But Also Worst C63 AMG Ever | POV

- This is the new 2024 Mercedes C63 AMG Performance with a 4 cylinder turbo engine and hybrid tech making a combined 670hp and 752 lbs torque. But even though it's the most powerful C63 ever it doesn't feel like one. Here are my first impressions of driving it.

The fake engine sounds through the speakers 🤢🤮
Well, you said "something's missing". Yeah, 4 cylinders missing 😂
Missing 4 from 4 is to much if it was 2 from 6 easier
If Mercedes decide to go with a 6-cylinder a few people would have rolled their eyes. Dropping to 4 from 8 is a failure. Then charging over $100k for a 4-cylinder is absurd.
They messed up big time.
Let's just say in the parallel universe the C63 did get the inline 6 people still be ungrateful wanting an V8
but it has formula 1 technology in it 🤢 😂. Mercedes went down the hill with this decision
@@Ben_Z33 That is true, but majority of people would be fine with it. Mercedes already has 6-cylinders, BMW, Alfa Romeo, and Audi all have great performing 6-cylinders.
200K For the v8
That's not a C63, that's a C43.😂
More like C23 AMG, the 1997-2000 C43 had an AMG 4.3 V8
Nah atleast the c43 has a 6 cylinder.😂
@@mikeiceeright I was gonna say c23 also 😂😂
They could've called it the C45, since its basically just an A45 C-class.
@@ajstevens1652 can’t sell it for what they want then 😂 63 badge demands wealth
They could have at least went with a Inline 6 powertrain if they weren't going to offer a V8, but for that price with a 4-banger in it..... is a lot to ask for a luxury performance car.
I always thought the e63 and up should have v8 not c63
Not even i6 would be okey. I want my AMG V8
This is exactly the reason the Koenigsegg 1.3 Gemera isn't selling because customers want a big heart for the price of the car.
Imagine a Challenger Hellcat powered by a 3-cylinder lol
@@E1N9A8N0DA the 1.3 keeps having problems which is keeping customers waiting, koenigsegg gave them the option to switch over to the v8 instead
That Mercedes sounds like a Subaru WRX lol
That’s disrespectful to WRX everywhere 😂
@@gaara4667 I don't care lol
It sounds like a grass mower machine
@@builtvisions well that is your dumb opinion and evidently you know nothing about vehicles so shut your fracking mouth
@@hotboiorlandoThat sounds absolutely nothing like a WRX. I want whatever it is that you're smoking, lmao 💀
C63 used to be raw and rowdy, which is what made it so much fun. This is a fast car that drives well, but it is no longer raw nor rowdy, and therefore is nowhere near as fun.
i thought the whole point of C63 was that they put that big v8 in the small c class. They should bring Evolution back and put that 400 hp 4 cyl into Evo.
As a previous owner of a 2020 C63S, this current model has a fake engine sound filtering through the front cabin speakers similar to the BMWs. In America, there has been a huge backlash as sale numbers for the current C63 are low. Most AMG enthusiasts don't want a 4 cylinder engine. Let's hope that the new CLE63 is an 8 cylinder. Thanks for the upload.
I would. I live in Australia, over here we get the A45S. Absolute weapon of a hatchback. This engine works so well in that car (seriously, it does!) In a C-class though... not so much.
Bmw doesnt have fake engine sound. Theyve got a mic near the exhaust and filter that into the cabine. But its your real engine sound.
@questionyourself718 Be as it may, this setup is similar to the Porsche 911, where a tube feeds engine sound into the rear cabin. Also, with the current Mercedes-AMG C63 front speakers. However, it sounds good inside the cabin, but the sound outside is way quieter. The sound inside should sound the same as the outside. Therefore, cabin sound is amplified, hence, fake.
@@konkombotis5549 i wouldnt call that fake. Fake for me is a sound that is actualy different to the one your car makes. Amplified ≠ fake.
@@questionyourself718 agree to disagree.
That's one expensive lawn mower you got there. Sounds like a Briggs and Stratton 6.5hp to me...........
I don't care about speed, it's about the torque and feel while driving.
The electric motor will give you more torque
@@mindplanes still won't feel the same. Plus it sounds crap.
@@hobo1704 true. Mercedes ruined their car
@@hobo1704electric motors will always have better torque than a gas engine
@@georgejungle138 so all electric motors are the same size? Producing exactly the same amount of torque?.. no
Completely agree with you. I have a CLA45s and it’s an awesome car with the 4cylinder and it suits it but not in a C63, no way! I just bought an Aston Martin vantage with the AMG v8 and there is no comparison between the sound of the 4 cylinder and the V8. The V8 sound is so special and a C63 without it just makes no sense.
The Aston Martin has a Mercedes engine?
@@IPYESyes, the Aston Martin Vantage since 2018 is with Mercedes M177 engine.
Heard Mercedes is going to ditch this engine and go back to the V8. Sales probably are slow, and resale value may be low due to this being a 4 cylinder. Still, it's an AMG, so it's going to be fast.
Unfortunately this was debunked by the CEO recently
@@user-pn8dq6vt4snope, they changed strategy some weeks ago. Cle63 only weeks bevor launch was canceled to get complete v8 treatment. E, Glc and c class will probably get a v8 too
@@Fakultaetx don't know who would pay 100k for a four cylinder Mercedes.
@@MrHemikid426 exactly; they just found out what we told them years ago. Long live v8
@@FakultaetxCLE63s for sure getting a V8. the E63s also cancelled the V6, they really need to put a V8 in that one too. but its too late for the GLC and C class, they’re cooked
As an AMG owner, myself, this was another stunning review! Especially coming from you who knows what a C63/s should be like, I was waiting for this one. Will you also drive the CLE 53? 🤔
The sales numbers say it all
Mercedes should’ve put a NA 4 litre V8 with hybrid if anything
I cant imagine owning that out of warranty with that rats nest of tech/complexity under the hood 🥵
You said it yourself, Mike. German Mustang. So, why not just get a Dark Horse with a V8 and save $30K?
mustangs just don’t have that mercedes styling and quality interiors. mercedes is the best of both worlds at that point
@@Jake__Xstyling is subjective. People keep riding German marketing. But the interior part is absolutely true!
I was wanting to upgrade my 15 w204 c63 507 edition to this new gen one, after seeing 4cylinder no way!
Whatever you do, don't trade a 507 for this lol
in 5+ years that 507 will appreciate like gold lol
Dont trade a 507 period. People will pay more for that than a new c63 anyways
I would have recommended keeping your previous vehicle. Contemporary automobiles tend to be somewhat underwhelming.
Just got out of a GLA 45 and Mercedes is just insane for putting a 2.0L in the C63 😂
Great review and love the new camera angle
Well at least the CLE coupe gets the V8 Mercedes-Benz learned from their epic failure fast but no soul.
The ultimate Prius.
I agree. The car has changed. Also, it sounds like the sound it coming from the car speakers? What have they done dude. Completely ruined the Amg line..
Not worth even worth a 100k
Its worth 50,000 with that 4 cylinder turbo
Nah its definitely worth more than 50k its an m3 rival @jeree477
It's worth $35,000
@@mustangdbest220650 horsepower stock for $35k is wild
Trade is around 37,500
People haven’t bought muscle cars or supercars because they want to go fast. They bought them for the emotion of the engine and all the drama surrounding it. The speed and performance is important but secondary to the experience.
Very well put. If going fast is all a car can do you’ll get bored very quickly.
@@thewholeeventhorizon Especially when that fast doesn’t feel like anything like with electric cars, there’s no emotion.
Rimac nevera isn’t selling great eather because hypercar customers will rather have a real engine in their cars too.
Happy Saturday Mike!
Nice video Mike!
Boo for the 4 cylinder! Thank goodness for sustainable fuel, so that I can keep my badass V8 forever.
What sustainable fuel?
100% Trying to electrify performance models and sports cars is insanity.
Nice delusion bro. Before sustainable fuels become mainstream you will be in jail for even owning a gas powered car and not trading it in for an EV.
@@theairaccumulator7144 Nice doomer mentailty bro EV's are never taking over 100% of the consumer car market
Is that fake noise in a C63? Sad times.
Bruh that's literally every single performance orientated car of today
Autovlog Great Video I think that AMG C63S E Performance is pretty awesome although I definitely definitely agree that it shouldn't have a TT 4 cylinder
Reminds me of when VW went away with the VR6 engines and dedicated themselves to build only 4 cylinders for their R models smh
Those don’t sound good for the most part,but at least there’s an aftermarket which are deep for modifying that engine which makes it forgivable, this one with the hybrid is gonna be a huge maintenance nightmare
bro!! The Quality of this POV is really really sick tho! I love it And i'm glad you are uploading vids like this again! What canera did you use for this one?
Good job Mike :)
This thing is gonna be a maintenance nightmare. No way would I pay 100k$+ for any car with a 4cylinder in it. Idc how fast it is.
True. For that price range it must be minimum 6 cylinders.
Would you pay millions for a Porsche 919 4 cylinder LMP racecar?
And here’s me still wanting my 6.2 V8 W204 instead. Because it makes me smile every time I drive it and the noise from it is pure music!
Great video, nice car loving the POV format but the sound sounds in mono Mike
I’m sorry did you say 100k for a 4 banger. Idc if it’s hybrid and 700 hp. Mercedes really missed it with this. I will admit that’s some big numbers but still it’s still a 4 cylinder.
If you want power you need a battery pack and an electric motor. Internal combustion is a dead man walking. Never in my lifetime did I think I could purchase a family sedan that would completely destroy almost any gasoline supercar. 🤷
One of the worst selling cars ever made in history in germany.
At least the new M5 has a V8. Lol
@@TheMadmax0609 No one cares.
@@ajstevens1652 You mad?
POV: When you set the AMG to Master Race. 💀
Naughty
They ripped the heart and soul out of that car.
I haven’t seen one on the road nor have I seen one at any of my local dealers lol
W204 c63: "I'm ashamed of my successor"
I love this car
I drove the CLA35 and the fake sound vs. what's happening on the outside is confusing at least. The actual movements and the sound don't even match too well but the biggest downer is the sound becomes annoying very fast.
Good review. But yeah, speed isn't the only thing. Thanks but no thanks on the 4pot "AMG". I'll stick with my Renntech tuned 2020 C63S. Also agree about the "ventilated" seats. On high they barely make a kleenex move. Also, cool seeing a video in my neck of the woods!
In the future, AMG cars won't even have a 4 cyl, so still you should be thankful haha
They will go bankrupt if they do that
Was any of that engine noise inside fake sounds coming through the speakers? Also, one of the things that would give me pause on buying it, especially in the first few years, is how complicated the whole hybrid system is in there. I've read articles on this car and it is very complicated on how the batteries and engines and electric motors all work together.
So is that sound real at least or they are pumpin in through speakers ?
It literally sounds like how my brothers ‘16 Honda accord sport sounded, it screamed but went nowhere 😭
Time for a v12 c63 with a flame tune and loud exhaust wouln't that be nice
Unfortunately V12s, 8s and 6s will be gone from all cars eventually. I feel you
if prices come down majorly because people arent buying them, there is a price id happily drive that car
as a fan of the 45 series from amg i have to say i love it lol
A 100k 4 cylinder where do I sign up
The car is amazing but the OG will be a og always your old C63S was amazing yeha that amg was like a race car yo but this one no not getting the feeling that we are driving a AMG C63 video was amazing 🥃
Perfect daily car, issue is the price… Quartz watch charged at Automatic prices… Just does not make any sense. And yes, in Australia it’s a complete flop…
I know since how man Videos that you have an Ton of Doubts against the 4cylinder... Did you have the Speedometer set in km/h? Cannot wait for your Review. Greetings from Germany 👍☺️😉
Pretty sure it's mph.
I mean! Why going for a 4 cylinder instead of a V6, Straight 6 or even a 5 cylinder? This is some really bad downsizing in my opinion..
Do the technicians who built the AMG engine still sign the engine?
It's refreshing to see that more and more people are realizing that there is more to enjoying a car than just pure speed
So glad they’re ditching the hybrid 4.
Oh man, you missed out…Should have parked in spot 206 😂
I work at the #1 Mercedes dealership in the northeast. We have 4 that have been sitting for nearly 2 months… none have even been test driven 😭
I seen C63 I instantly liked!
Not a C63 but I've had a 4.4 V8 BMW for ages, recently decided to go down to a 2.0 for my next car just for better economy and cheaper tax etc. it's been 6 months and it's fine but I miss my V8 madly!
I had the SL 43 for a few days and it was really quick and although I loved it, I just felt that the engine was tuned within an inch of its life so I ordered the 55 instead
this car gave me a lot of reason not to sell my c63 V8 😁
My eyes started glaze it over😂😂😂😂
I have a W205 that I've put 21k miles on and probably won't ever sell. I'm just going to end up garaging it in a couple of years when it's time for a new car. The V8 C class is sadly probably never coming back. There's a small part of me that wants to believe they'll drop another C63 Black Series or something with the V8 + hybrid 4matic, but that's a farfetched dream.
Oh you can see energy flow like in a prius 😂😂😂😂😂
Hey M. AutoVlog, that exhaust note you covet is easily remedied with an aFe modification kit. Instant snap, crackle & POPs upon installation. EasyPeasyJapaneesy Homey ! 🚘🔍. 🎯
I've always been more into BMWs out of the german cars, but nothing beats the AMG V8 sound, its just beastly on another level
Would you ever drive a gt63 Benz
Mercedes is the master of diluting , making the C-cheap class front end look similar to the AMG GT
Just as you say, it sounds exactly CLA45. I have a 2014 CLA45 and it makes exactly that sound, pop and bangs, sure fun for a entry model, but with the c63 you should expect the growling/raw´er sound.
If this is a C63 with 4 cyls and battery then will the next A45 be a 2cyl with two batteries? Who knows...
the new glc63s cupe is insane whit catless downpipes and stage 1 yes is not a v8 they should have done both platforms but for some reason they decided to do only one engine platform 2.0 , in my opinion it is still as exciting as the v8 I have tested both generations
Unpopular opinion : I like it
I have the same M139 Engine in my 2023 AMG GLA 45 but it only costs $50K. 382HP
a hybrid 6 cyclinder turbo would have been interesting. porsche even turned having hybrid technology into a great feature - i'm not sure what went wrong at the mercedes factory but they seem to have lost their way. 4 cylinder turbo is fine for the lower trim but anyone buying the big bad wolf isn't going to compromise on the meat. it's like having a gourmet vegan burger. if you really wanted to eat a greasy cow, nothing will compare. lol
Still has the looks
For those of us who have or had, as in my case, a W204 C63, these new super technological wonders definitely disappoint us. Surely they are efficient and would have lowered emissions standards, but these new Mercedes have taken away the excitement of a top-class thoroughbred.
You can change the dials
If you watched the video he did change them
I never thought my WRX would someday have bigger engine than a C63
Felt the same in the CLA45s to me: "something missing".
I have been waiting for you to trash this new C63 for so long...
Finally!!!
Great video as always Mike but I will have to agree with you they should have never went with a 4 cylinder . It was way better before they should have kept it the way it was
No one in the UK is buying them. Merc shot themselves in the foot with this one! The competition is laughing at them - and thanking them for the extra sales!
Could imagine so. You can get an M3 comp for the same or less and an M8 comp for slightly more.
a fully speced C63s e performance in Denmark costs 390.000 dollars:)
The car is nothig Mercedes engineers dreamed of, but they are forced to produce them to fit emission regulations.
Don't forget about the noises that comes in through the speakers don't get fooled by that in 100,000 for a 4-cylinder for that will buy the Civic Type R half the cost probably more fun
This c63 sounds like a very technical nightmare
I agree. My GLA45 is a blast but I want a C63 to be just that.
What will a C45 have? 2 Cylinders? LOL
Not only that zur C63 is now a 4 banger, Most of its Sound comes from the speakers, it has even a speaker on the outside for Sound 😂
I'll buy this car way below the msrp. I'll replace C63 badge with C45 lol
Couldnt agree more with this review of the car. Amazing car, well refined beautiful interior and insanely fast. If only they gave it a V8 that sounded like the W204 C63 and a "Classic" style Instrument cluster visual option.
SOUL > TECH
Change performs well. It just sounds like ….
Can you test C43 AMG ?
AMG and 4 cylinder in the same sentence is ridiculous 🤦🏾♂️
My 2013 AMG CLA45 kicks ass, 0-100 in 4.1 seconds stock is pretty good imo,but your probably right😂
Really? What about an A 45 S???
