Mercedes-Benz has established itself as a brand built on quality engineering, deft performance and unwavering style. A brand that JCT600 has proudly represented since 1988.
Manufacturing a variety of ranges from sports to luxury and everything in between, the brand has a rich history. Part of that history is the AMG subsidiary, which was introduced 41 years after the launch of Mercedes-Benz.
The AMG name defined the ‘high-performance’ endeavours of Mercedes-Benz, gifting us models such as the AMG GT 63, SL Roadster, and the E-Class Cabriolet. Across the entire AMG range, there are a few things which each model has in common.
In this blog, we’re looking at what they are and why they’ve made us fall in love with the brand over and over again.
AMG takes all of the high-performance capability of standard models and dials it up to 11. With powerful engines which often feature turbocharged capabilities, Mercedes-AMG models will allow you to embrace a powerful driving experience regardless of the weather.
The ‘sportier’ aspect of AMG models is further supported by the suspension which has been designed to deliver during even the most “intense performance”. This allows the driver to enjoy an agile drive with highly responsive steering when tackling everything from windy backroads to busy motorways. Whether you buy a new or used Mercedes-AMG, you’ll be able to enjoy quality performance for years to come.
Beautiful both inside and out, AMG ensures that the elegance of the vehicle’s performance is reflected in its appearance. Core to Mercedes’ design philosophy is the aim to make "the world's most desirable cars", which shapes all of the brand’s stylistic choices. This approach to continually making timeless icons allows AMG to hit the mark with every model they produce, balancing form with function.
The unique AMG styling is expressed in different areas of the bodywork, with one of the most noticeable features being the front grille. Most feature vertical slats whilst others have a varying pattern which helps set the models apart from the standard Mercedes-Benz range.
What is practicality without a touch of style? Well, Mercedes-AMG finds the perfect balance ensuring that every model interior delivers style and substance in equal measure. The lavish materials and cutting-edge infotainment systems allow you to navigate the roads in complete comfort.
The layout of the interior is also optimised for performance, ensuring that the steering position is comfortable and that you have quick, clear access to all of the essential controls whilst driving. Oh, and not forgetting the trademark ambient lighting which adds plenty of atmosphere to the cabin space.
Mercedes-AMG offer a range of customised wheels and tyres, for specific models. The owner is able to purchase a special package of wheels only available for AMG models and replace the standard stock wheels which the vehicle comes with. The custom wheels are designed to further enhance the performance of the AMG as they are optimised for better handling and higher speeds.
Just like the rest of the AMG aesthetic, the wheels are crafted to improve the overall look of your vehicle. With many different colours and finishes to choose from, you’re able to find a set which takes your AMG to the next level.
If there’s one feature which jumps to mind when Mercedes-AMG is mentioned, it’s their specialised handcrafted engines. The brand’s unique focus on meticulous engine build has helped Mercedes-AMG stay a cut above the rest, as just one technician is able to leave their stamp of precision and craftsmanship on the heart of the vehicle.
The love and care which is poured into the vehicle is often reciprocated by the driver as they’re able to reap the rewards of an engine crafted by specialists.
