The E-Class has been one of Mercedes-AMG's most popular models for decades. The performance brand is building on this with the E 53 HYBRID: The vehicle offers typical AMG driving dynamics with excellent responsiveness, great driving dynamics and sporty design. As a plug-in hybrid, the E 53 HYBRID combines concentrated performance with efficiency and an electric range of up to more than 100 kilometers.<br />The basis for the sporty and efficient drive is the tried and tested AMG 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder turbo engine. In the E 53 HYBRID 4MATIC+, it delivers 330 kW/449 hp. Compared to the previous version in the E 53 of the previous W213 series, this means an increase of 10 kW/14 hp. Numerous software and hardware measures contribute to the increase in performance. This includes a new twin-scroll exhaust turbocharger with higher boost pressure.<br />The combination of this combustion engine and the permanent magnet e-synchronous machine with 120 kW nominal output generates a maximum system output of 430 kW/585 hp (with RACE START: 450 kW/612 hp) and a maximum system torque of 750 Nm. The driving performance is correspondingly dynamic: Acceleration from 0-100 km/h takes 3.8 seconds (sedan with RACE START, part of the optional AMG DYNAMIC PLUS package). The top speed is electronically limited to 280 km/h (sedan with optional AMG Driver's Package). Up to 140 km/h is possible purely electrically.<br />A charger with 11 kW charging capacity is on board for charging with alternating current. In addition, a 60 kW DC fast charger for direct current is available on request. This allows the battery to be charged from 10% to 80% charge in around 20 minutes.
