just a bunch of silly biz planning decision from MB recently... I think the rationale behind the "C63e" is their EV stuff is delayed and AMG sales way up so their emissions penalty is looking very heavy.
Band-aid solution is to greenify the best selling AMG model, very sad to see. If they call it the C45 I think there'd be more acceptance...
Next Audi RS4/5 will be a PHEV too, but logically I'd guess it would be the 2.9TT hybrid powertrain pushing 550hp from the facelift Panamera.
So funny enough despite the outcry, BMW will laugh to the bank with the enthusiast dollars this gen
