AMG Performance
Handling
Responsiveness is the key objective in everything from wheel design to load transfer and weight distribution. Technologies taken from the world of racing, like carbon-ceramic construction and heat-conquering compound discs make the AMG braking superior to anything else on the road, let alone the track. Not to mention, AMG suspension features exclusive components, hardware and sophisticated architecture.
Power Delivery
The AMG transmissions are built to refine the power and delivery of the AMG engines into both speed and precision. Features including dual or multi-clutch technology and advanced gearboxes with up to four selectable driving modes derived from racing are more than up to the task of taking on the muscles of the AMG engine.
Sound
What you hear when your foot is applied to the gas pedal is just as important as what you feel. The AMG exhaust systems are tuned for more than just performance, they are also acoustically tuned to unleash the muscular growl of the AMG engine during acceleration and downshifts, as well as the fire of the ignition. While at cruising speeds, a symphony of mellow yet throaty sounds will remind you of the power raging within.
