After having owned a G80cx, I’m intrigued by this new AMG CLE53
It seems like a return to form for AMG even without the V8. Wizardry with the TCT transmission, AWD/RWD continuous optimizations in real time, 443 hp mild hybrid I-6 with overboost on torque to match the hp figure (lb-ft), and RWS which I’ve argued the G80 needs. Also the stance and look is aggressive.
Obviously the comp x has it bested in power and acceleration and likely weight etc. But Merc’s strong suit is in its transmission and straight line speed, and perhaps a 63 version will follow in a few years.
