Mercedes-Benz E53 AMG Hybrid Property (UK)
With the Mercedes-AMG E53 HYBRID 4MATIC+, the efficiency and sports activities automotive model from Affalterbach presents a brand new plug-in hybrid mannequin that mixes excellent efficiency and driving dynamics with a protracted electrical vary.
The mixture of the three.0-litre six-cylinder in-line engine and the completely excited E-synchronous electrical motor generates a most system output of 430 kW (585 HP) (at RACE START: 450 kW/612 HP) and a most system torque of 750 Nm. The efficiency is correspondingly dynamic: acceleration from 0-100 km/h takes place in 3.8 seconds (saloon with RACE START). The highest velocity is electronically restricted to 280 km/h (saloon with AMG Driver’s Bundle), and as much as 140 km/h is feasible on pure electrical energy.
The 120-kW electrical motor is built-in into the AMG SPEEDSHIFT TCT 9G transmission to save lots of house. The high-power density of the hybrid energy unit is achieved by the completely excited inner rotor synchronous expertise.
The traction battery with 400 volts has a usable capability of 21.22 kWh and is put in within the rear beneath the trunk flooring. A part of the vitality is at all times reserved for reinforcing and thus high-performance driving. Nonetheless, the high-voltage battery permits an electrical vary of as much as over 100 kilometres based on WLTP.
The premise for the sporty and environment friendly drive is the confirmed AMG 3.0-litre in-line six-cylinder turbo engine. Within the E53 HYBRID 4MATIC+ it delivers 330 kW (449 hp). In comparison with the earlier model within the E53 of the predecessor W213 collection, this implies a rise of 10 kW (14 hp). Quite a few software program and {hardware} measures contribute to growing efficiency. This features a new twin-scroll exhaust gasoline turbocharger with greater increase stress. The replace additionally consists of newly programmed software program, a further entrance cooler, and a wheel arch cooler.
To account for the excessive dynamic potential of the drive practice, the physique shell has been revised with quite a few stiffening measures. A strut brace between the entrance suspension strut mounts stiffens the entrance construction and permits elevated lateral dynamics. The thrust subject beneath the engine will increase steering precision by decreasing the torsion of the entrance finish. It’s related to the longitudinal beams by extra struts. On the rear axle, extra struts from the aspect members to the rear guarantee larger stability and driving precision.
The Mercedes-AMG E53 HYBRID 4MATIC+ will be recognised by many particular design components, for instance the broader entrance fenders (plus eleven millimetres on all sides in comparison with the Mercedes-Benz E-Class) to make room for the bigger observe width on the entrance axle, and the AMG-specific radiator grille. Inside AMG-specific components embrace exlcuisve supplies and AMG-specific performance inside the MBUX infotainment system.
The usual all-wheel drive offers optimum traction. It ensures excessive driving stability and driving security on dry roads in addition to on moist or snowy roads. An electromechanically managed clutch distributes the driving drive variably to the entrance and rear axles in every driving programme.
The AMG improvement crew developed and tuned the AMG RIDE CONTROL metal spring suspension with adaptive adjustable damping particularly for the necessities of the E53 HYBRID 4MATIC+ with new {hardware} and software program. It presents a balanced mixture of enough acoustic insulation for purely electrical driving together with a really sporty character typical of AMG.
