As the S-Class Cabriolet demonstrates: the ultimate. A Mercedes that raises driving to a new and inestimable level of refinement. So stylish and luxurious that when it opens up, the eyes and hearts of true car enthusiasts open wide as well. 3 4 Car spa. 5 Warm sunshine on your skin. “hot stones” on your back. The Seat Comfort package is available as an option for the S-Class Cabriolet. A sense of comfort beyond compare. One highlight of the package is the ENERGIZING massage function. There is a choice of six massage programmes – ranging from relaxing to activating. For example “Hot-Stone Massage”, which applies warmth and gentle pressure to deliver a particularly relaxing experience. The soothing movements stimulate the muscles and encourage the circulation. The ideal complement to this system, incidentally, is the optionally available neck-level heating system AIRSCARF: air outlets in the head restraints wrap the driver’s and front passenger’s necks in warm, cosy air, rather like an invisible scarf. 6 7 Enjoy the greatest luxury of our age. Time. Make sure you take enough of it. Leave everything else behind. And luxuriate in the Cabriolet in the S-Class range. The highlight in design terms is the instrument panel with its sculptural lines, which makes abundant use of wood or carbon-fibre trim. In exquisite handcrafted quality, it provides the perfect framework for a level of comfort that takes all the stresses and strains away from you, whilst adding a wealth of fascinating impressions. 8 9 More speed, less haste. You remain serene and quietly confident, despite the fact that the S 500 can drive like a sports car. Accompanied by a V8 sound that will hold you enthralled. You will float on AIRMATIC air suspension with an adaptive damping system. You simply cannot get a more advanced, more emotional drive. 10 335 kW or 455 hp. Enough power to stop the world for a moment. 11 12 13 14 Gran Performer. How it all begins: with a design idiom that leaves you speechless. We are enthralled by the typical proportions of a large, sporty coupé, the long bonnet with its powerdomes, the elegant roof line and the frameless side windows. But we wanted more. A technology leader, a new symbol for modern luxury. 15 16 17 Fine lighting There’s something different here. The sparkle, the exquisite finish – the world has never seen a headlamp like it. As an option, fine Swarovski crystals give the headlamps of the LED Intelligent Light System a unique flare – and no, that’s not a misspelling. A stunning play of light, a sparkling performance: the front indicator light features 30 crystals, while the daytime running lamp directly beneath it includes a further 17. Available for both the S-Class Coupé and the Cabriolet. 18 19 High-end by conviction. If you’ve ever experienced the sound from the optional Burmester® High-End 3D surround sound system you’ll know how hard it is to hide your enthusiasm. A three-dimensional audio experience that moves you to the core. Are you sitting comfortably? Leather upholstery is available in a choice of three colour schemes, while there are seven different lighting moods to choose from. 20 High tech’s appeal. 21 23 Magic body control If you so wish, the suspension of the S-Class Coupé can be turned into a technological tour de force. An active, hydraulic suspension system is able to absorb almost completely the rolling and pitching motions of the vehicle. As soon as you enter a bend, you will be amazed. The vehicle leans into the bend by as much as 2.65 degrees and the impact of the lateral forces is significantly reduced. It sounds like magic and it feels like magic, which is why we’ve called it just that: MAGIC BODY CONTROL with curve tilting function. 24 The sight of a Mercedes-Benz Coupé has been leaving us speechless for many years now: the continuous expanse of window, without a B-pillar, gives the car an elegantly flowing silhouette that remains unrivalled to this day. The frameless side windows are surrounded by fine chrome. 25 26 Our next great innovation revolves around you.

The Silver Arrows works team MERCEDES AMG PETRONAS continued this tradition in the 2014 Formula 1 season. Its successful involvement was crowned by the most impressive double victory of the season, with the team topping both the constructorsʼ and the driversʼ rankings. The teamʼs successes are not restricted to the race track, however. Every mile raced also advances the development of hybrid technology for series production. m FIND OUT MORE Fascinating Formula 1 goes multimedia: http://www.facebook.com/MercedesAMGF1 http://twitter.com/MERCEDESAMGF1 http://www.youtube.com/user/MERCEDESAMGPETRONAS http://plus.google.com/+Mercedesamgf1/posts http://instagram.com/MercedesAMGF1# http://www.MercedesAMGF1.com MERCEDES AMG PETRONAS F1 W06 hybrid, 2015 season. 34 35 Inseparable. Any conflict between efficiency and dynamism was over­ come a long time ago at Mercedes-Benz. The effortless performance and low fuel consumption of the S 400 4MATIC Coupé, with its 270 kW V6 petrol engine and seven-speed automatic transmission 7G-TRONIC PLUS as standard, are impressive. Eight cylinders – no other engine gets under the skin in quite the same way. As the latest model to follow in this tradition, the S 500 rolls out an unmistakable, irresistible carpet of sound. A specially developed sound control system ensures that this effect comes into play as soon as the car starts or is accelerated sharply, while during normal driving the engine remains completely restrained. In acoustic terms, it thus melds the emotional appeal of a sports car with the comfort of an S-Class to unique effect. The S-Class Coupé and Cabriolet are equipped as standard with the 9-speed automatic transmission 9G-TRONIC. Featuring nine forward gears, this automatic transmission takes efficiency, comfort and dynamics to a completely new level. The wider gear spread allows a reduction in engine speed. Performance remains excellent, while ride comfort is enhanced and noise levels are reduced. Smaller gear ratio increments and faster gear changes lead to even greater responsiveness and agility, while the car’s exceptional efficiency has resulted in even lower fuel consumption. The gentle and almost imperceptible changes of gear made by the transmission are similarly impressive. As 9G-TRONIC is able to skip individual gears, multiple downshifts are possible for fast and powerful sprints. The shift characteristics can be preset from economical to dynamic with the transmission modes “Economy”, “Sport” and “Manual”. Drivers with sporty inclinations can switch gears manually using the DIRECT SELECT steering-wheel gearshift paddles – much as in motorsport. Depending upon the model selected, the seven-speed automatic transmission 7G-TRONIC PLUS is also available. A torsional damper allows exceptionally comfortable and fuel-efficient driving at low engine speeds. As in the case of the 9G-TRONIC, there is a choice of three transmission modes as well as the option of selecting the gears manually using the DIRECT SELECT steering-wheel gearshift paddles. S 500 4MATIC COUPÉ The S 500 4MATIC Coupé delivers 335 kW (455 hp) and peak torque of 700 Nm at 1800–3500 rpm.

With curve tilting function. It’s called the curve tilting function and it does exactly “what it says on the tin”: during cornering, the body of the vehicle leans into the bend by up to 2.65 degrees. This significantly reduces the degree to which lateral forces are felt; and taking on bends is even more enjoyable. Anticipated comfort: the suspension adjusts to uneven sections in the road before the vehicle gets to them. This is courtesy of the innovative ROAD SURFACE SCAN, a technological milestone. With the aid of a stereo camera positioned behind the rear-view mirror, the topography of the road ahead is registered precisely. Depending on the engine variant chosen, this technology is available as standard or as an option for the Coupé, but not in conjunction with the all-wheel drive system 4MATIC or for the Cabriolet. Staying on course, with no rocking or rolling, takes character – and the all-wheel drive system 4MATIC. Driving the S-Class Coupé and Cabriolet. Further highlights The all-wheel-drive Coupé models, along with all S-Class Cabriolet The S 400 and S 500 Coupé as well as the S 500 Cabriolet are available with 4MATIC. The permanent all-wheel drive system provides the best possible traction, ensuring that the vehicle sits incredibly stably and calmly on the road. Particularly on a slippery or loose surface, this enhances both comfort and driving safety quite noticeably. Thanks to the rear-axle-biased brake force distribution and the exceptionally lightweight construction techniques used, 4MATIC brings added benefit even with a sporty and dynamic driving style. models, are fitted with the air suspension system AIRMATIC. The damping at each wheel adapts to the current driving situation and can, if so required, be individually set. Over long stretches of motorway you can enjoy a pleasant, soft level of ride comfort, but on winding country roads a more sporty and direct dynamic driving experience. Depending on the actual vehicle suspension, various modes can be selected using the suspension setting switch in the centre console. Confirmation of the selection made is displayed in both the instrument cluster and the head unit. The Direct-Steer system supplements the comfort of speed-­ sensitive power steering with a variable steering ratio dependent on the steering angle. On winding roads, for example, this produces a more agile handling response and improved straight-line stability. 37 38 Mercedes-Benz Intelligent Drive. On the road to accident-free driving. The S-Class Coupé and the Cabriolet take stock of their surroundings more intensively, precisely and quickly than any other car in this class. A stereo camera can detect objects and pedestrians crossing in front of the car in spatial terms and calculate their path. Intelligent algorithms evaluate this information from a wide monitoring area to detect and undertake a three-dimensional evaluation of vehicles approaching, in front and crossing, as well as of pedestrians and various types of traffic signs and road markings. Numerous safety and assistance systems, the availability of which depends upon the vehicle’s precise specification, can assess a wide range of traffic situations virtually of their own accord, analyse these and trigger supporting measures. m FIND OUT MORE Mercedes-Benz Intelligent Drive is our generic term for intelligent technologies which actively support the driver and help to take the strain out of driving. Find out more at www.mercedes-benz-intelligent-drive.com 39 Driving Assistance package Plus. Positively safer. An optional equipment package made up of a perfectly coordinated cluster of safety and assistance systems: this helps to take the strain off the driver, to reduce any risk of accident and to improve protection for the car’s occupants as well as for other road users. Brake Assist BAS PLUS with Cross-Traffic Assist and PRE-SAFE® Brake with pedestrian detection can reduce the risk of accidents at junctions, rear-end collisions and collisions with pedestrians, particularly in urban traffic. Active Lane Keeping Assist and Active Blind Spot Assist provide assistance if the vehicle leaves its lane uninten­ tionally or during lane changes if there is a danger of collision with other vehicles.

PRE-SAFE® PLUS, finally, expands the PRE-SAFE® preventive occupant protection system to include protective measures in the event of an imminent rear impact. DISTRONIC PLUS with Steering Assist and Stop&Go Pilot assists the driver with keeping a safe distance from the vehicle in front and also with staying in the centre of the lane – so ensuring a high level of stress-relieving comfort, particularly over long distances or in stop-and-go traffic. 40 Masterful manoeuvring. Parking and manoeuvring with realistic all-round visibility is made possible by the optional 360-degree camera system and its four interlinked close-range cameras. A bird’s-eye view of the vehicle and its surroundings can be displayed on the COMAND Online screen. Obstacles below the window line are also visible to the driver. This is helpful, for example, when approaching kerbs. One camera is mounted in the radiator grille at the front; there is one in each exterior mirror and one in the centre of the boot lid. Various views additionally show guide lines to make parking easier. The rear camera is protected against soiling by the large Mercedes star on the boot lid. When the 360° camera is activated, the star tilts up electrically. The parking aids Active Parking Assist makes searching for a parking space easier, as well as manoeuvring into or out of either a parallel or an end-on parking space. The system automatically steers the vehicle into parking spaces, relieving the driver of the work of steering and braking. The reversing camera is switched on automatically when the driver selects reverse gear and shows the driver the area behind the vehicle on the head unit display, together with dynamic guide lines. 41 The integral safety concept from Mercedes-Benz. Avoiding accidents, identifying the best response in a dangerous situation and mitigating the consequences of an accident – Mercedes-Benz takes a holistic approach to driving safety. Fully alert at every moment, able to react in a considered manner in highly complex situations and to do so more comprehensively than any person ever could. The familiar star works to protect the occupants of the vehicle as well as other road users. Safe driving In the event of danger ATTENTION ASSIST can improve driving safety, especially on long journeys and at night. If the steering behaviour of the driver betrays typical signs of drowsiness and severe loss of attention, the system can give a visual and audible warning of impending microsleep. The anticipatory measures that come as part of the PRE-SAFE® system offer maximum protection in the event of an imminent accident. To achieve this, PRE-SAFE® continuously evaluates sensor data from other systems, such as the Electronic Stability Program ESP® and BAS Brake Assist, allowing it to intervene when it detects, for example, heavy over/understeer or emergency braking. PRE-SAFE® PLUS (part of the optional Driving Assistance package Plus) takes this concept a significant step further in that it is also effective in cases where a rear impact appears imminent. The elements in this case comprise the activation of the hazard warning lights, the reversible tensioning of the seat belts and full braking of the stationary vehicle in order, for example, to prevent the vehicle from rolling forward onto a junction. Active Blind Spot Assist can warn the driver of vehicles in the blind spot during a lane-change and apply one-sided braking intervention to help avoid a collision (part of the optional Driving Assistance package Plus). COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST PLUS combines a radarbased proximity warning, braking assistance with Adaptive Brake Assist and autonomous partial braking to reduce the danger of rear-end collisions (standard in certain countries, not in conjunction with Driving Assistance package Plus). The optional Night View Assist Plus system enables drivers to detect pedestrians or larger animals sooner in the dark. They are clearly shown on the multifunction display of the instrument cluster. for pedestrians or cyclists. The vehicle occupants, in their turn, can be protected in the event of a road traffic accident by as many as eight airbags. After an accident Every Mercedes-Benz is fully trained in first aid. If the worst comes to the worst, the engine can be stopped automatically and the central locking system unlocked, while at the same time the hazard warning lights and emergency interior lighting can be activated. Finally, the integrated Mercedes-Benz emergency call system can send GPS position data and important vehicle information, and establish a voice connection. In an accident A comprehensive protection system can reduce the risk of injury significantly. This includes the active bonnet, which in certain types of accidents is instantly automatically raised by a few centimetres, so helping to provide better protection m FIND OUT MORE The Mercedes-Benz TechCenter is a repository of informative multimedia films on virtually every aspect of safety technology. http://techcenter.mercedes-benz.com 42 43 The luxury resort in your digital world. Close connection to a variety of online services gives access to a whole series of new functions to make any journey more enjoyable and entertaining. If you use the vehicle as a WiFi hotspot, for example, your GPS data can be automatically transmitted in the event of an accident and help quickly organised. Special apps deliver innumerable radio stations and useful travel information to your vehicle. One particularly valuable extra: Live Traffic Information receives traffic information that is more precise and up to date than ever before. Route guidance is optimised on an ongoing basis and your arrival time calculated with absolute precision. And you arrive more relaxed. These online services are available in conjunction with the control and display system COMAND Online. Information is shown on a stunningly high-resolution 31.2 cm colour display screen. The ideal complement to this system is the head-up display, which projects important information as a virtual image directly into the driver’s line of sight. The display is perceived by the driver as floating above the bonnet about two metres away. 44 Trailblazing technology. A finger on the pulse. In order to ensure that all these new technologies and functions really do add value, we have devised a new control concept. In addition to the COMAND Controller and the voice-operated control system LINGUATRONIC, the S-Class Coupé and Cabriolet are also fitted with an optional touchpad, which allows intuitive, almost playful, control of numerous telematics services. As with a smartphone, it is possible to navigate around the menu with single or multi-fingered gestures. The system will even recognise your handwriting. A whole new tactile experience that has the added benefit of improving driving safety, since the intuitive ergonomics allow concentrated driving. 45 Music to the eyes. The sound is almost indescribable. A total of 24 loudspeakers (23 in the Cabriolet) with an output of 1520 watts transform the interior into an acoustic dream. The bass speaker alone has an output of more than 400 watts. However, the optional Burmester® High-End 3D surround sound system is just as amazing when it’s switched off. The speakers are designed like miniature works of art and feature an exceptionally high-quality finish. Tweeter Midrange woofer Midrange speaker Frontbass speaker Subwoofer Amplifier In the S-Class Cabriolet, the speaker in the roof is omitted. 46 Light. A new and exceptional day and night design is created if so desired by the inclusion of fine Swarovski crystals in the headlamps of the LED Intelligent Light System. The fascinating play of light created by the crystals in the turn indicators and daytime running lamps provides striking visual highlights and accentuates the unique nature of the vehicle. The turn signal indicator with 30 crystals under­ scores the striking lines of the headlamps. 17 crystals shine resplendent in the daytime running lamps immediately below. As you can see: a headlamp, too, can be a true designer item. But the standard-fit LED Intelligent Light System is – nomen est omen – far more than simply beautiful. For optimum visibility on country roads and motorways, when turning or cornering, the low-beam headlamps adapt to weather, light and driving conditions. In main-beam mode Adaptive Highbeam Assist Plus allows continuous long-range illumination of the road ahead, without dazzle. It masks out part of the light beam for oncoming traffic or vehicles travelling ahead. The LED technology also impresses with its extremely low energy consumption, long operating life and a pleasant white light that comes close to the spectrum of natural daylight. 47 In the mood. The interior of the vehicle can be given a subtle and individual fragrance with the help of the optional AIR-BALANCE package. This consists of a fragrance generator located in the glove compartment, a glass flacon and an atomiser head. Four high-quality fragrances are available: NIGHTLIFE MOOD, DOWNTOWN MOOD, SPORTS MOOD, FREESIDE MOOD – plus an additional PACIFIC MOOD fragrance developed specifically for the S-Class Cabriolet. A further flacon can be filled with a personal choice of fragrance. The intensity and duration of perfume atomisation are adjustable. The fragrance is always subtle, unobtrusive and fades away rapidly once the system is switched off. Oxygen ionisation of the interior air is a further function of the AIR-BALANCE package. Enrichment with oxygen anions has a freshening effect. At the same time certain viruses, bacteria and spores can be reduced. In addition, a filter system with two activated charcoal fine-particle filters cleans the outside air transported into the vehicle interior by the air conditioning system. 48 Comfort that sends a warm tingle down the spine. Every journey in the S-Class Coupé or Cabriolet brings with it an added sense of wellbeing. Particularly in conjunction with the optional Seat Comfort package and the active multicontour seats with ENERGIZING massage function and dynamic driving function for driver and front passenger that this includes. When on the move, the side bolsters automatically and dynamically adapt to vehicle movements to provide even better lateral support on winding roads and when adopting a sporty driving style. The ENERGIZING massage function stimulates and relaxes the back muscles as required, with 14 air chambers, six programmes and two intensities. This both enhances comfort and helps keeps the muscles toned over long distances. The combination of gentle pressure and pleasant warmth applied according to the principle of a hot-stone massage is particularly effective. 49 Star gazing a particular speciality. The S-Class Coupé is fitted as standard with a panoramic roof. This extends back from the top edge of the windscreen over about two thirds of the roof area, giving the car a distinctive and almost ethereal look that is totally consistent with the light-filled interior and pleasant, welcoming atmosphere. The optional MAGIC SKY CONTROL technology adds a final flourishing touch to the panoramic roof. In a matter of just seconds, the large panoramic roof can change from dark to transparent or vice-versa. When electrical voltage is applied, particles in the glass structure align themselves so that light can pass through the glass. When the system is deactivated – and automatically when the vehicle is switched off – the glass goes dark. The particles are distributed randomly and stop most of the light from passing through. This prevents the vehicle from heating up quite as much, reducing the interior temperature by as much as 10 °C. 50 No better way of protecting yourself from wind and weather. The soft top of the S-Class Cabriolet is made out of an extremely hard-wearing and attrac­ tive quality fabric and is available in the colours black, blue, beige and dark red. It also features exceptional noise insulation. The acoustics have been honed down to the minutest detail: a horizontal seam above the rear window joins the sections of fabric together. The roof liner, in black, porcelain or crystal grey, completely covers the roof frame back as far as the C-pillars. Further sections of trim enwrap the side frames of the roof within the roof liner. But for all this artistry with the soft top, the Cabriolet is still best driven open: which is why you can open the roof even when driving at speeds of up to 50 km/h – and close it again if you need to. 51 First-class inner values. In terms of their interiors, both the S-Class Cabriolet and the Coupé offer an exciting sporty-luxurious design idiom, with high-quality materials and unparalleled high-class appeal. The elegant sweep of the dashboard with its 31.2 cm display, a range of carefully coordinated colours and materials and superbly designed controls all emphasise the exclusive nature of this vehicle. An exceptional level of individualisation is possible courtesy of three different variants of leather in a select choice of colours. The ambient lighting can be used to set the tone in the interior according to your mood with a pleasant, indirect light. Seven different colours, five dimming levels and four dimming zones can furthermore be used to enhance the overall sense of wellbeing. 52 53 The only cabriolet with the comfort of an S-Class. In a class of its own in terms of climate and noise comfort, too: even in low temperatures or stormy conditions, the S-Class Cabriolet makes open-top driving an enjoyable affair. The optional draught stop system AIRCAP significantly reduces air turbulence in the interior. Activating the AIRCAP switch causes a wind deflector above the windscreen to extend, together with a draught stop behind the head restraints. A further comfort highlight available to the driver and front passenger is the AIRSCARF neck-level heating system, which is also available as an option for the S-Class Coupé. Air outlets in the head restraints wrap the driver’s and front passenger’s necks in warm, cosy air, rather like an invisible scarf. Furthermore, with the optional Warmth Comfort package, you can have heated seats, armrests and steering wheel. 54 55 AMG Line. Three letters that change almost everything. AMG fascination can also be experienced in the S 400 4MATIC Coupé, the S 500 and the S 500 4MATIC. The AMG Line comprises, amongst other things, chrome-­coloured pins in the diamond radiator grille, the dynamic AMG bodystyling, sporty AMG light-alloy wheels and perforated brake discs, as well as fine interior trim elements in highgloss black poplar wood. Further trim options are also available, for example metallised ash wood.

For the exterior these include striking 50.8 cm (20-inch) AMG multi-spoke light-alloy wheels, painted black and with a high-sheen finish (Code 789). An even sportier ambience in the interior is ensured by the AMG sports seats and the pleasantly tactile AMG sports steering wheel. m pure amg Experience the full fascination of AMG from page 64 on. 57 Genuine accessories.

The Coupé and Cabriolet in the Mercedes-AMG S-Class combine technical finesse with an incomparable driving experience; created for people who, when it comes to design and technology, are not willing to make compromises. Welcome to a car for all those who love performance and relish freedom. 65 66 The Mercedes-AMG S 63 Cabriolet. Open to infinity. Wherever the road leads, the Mercedes-AMG S 63 Cabriolet’s superb standards are evident in every detail. With its stunning styling, high-quality materials and absolutely perfect workmanship, the Mercedes-AMG S 63 Cabriolet makes a very clear statement. The AMG sports seats, developed especially for the Cabriolet, give both driver and front passenger outstanding lateral support as well as exceptional comfort on long journeys. 67 68 The horizon. Close enough to touch. Breathtaking scenery. Inviting bends. One exceptional cabriolet. Could there be any better opportunity to get its power going on the road? The Mercedes-AMG S 63 Cabriolet accelerates to 100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds, leaving amazement in its wake. The AMG engineers have achieved this by fitting the vehicle with a powerful 5.5-litre V8 biturbo engine, along with many other innovations. The result: a cabriolet that offers the performance of an AMG and the comfort of an S-Class. 69 70 A letter. A number. A statement. Ignition. And straight away, the mighty 5.5-litre AMG V8 biturbo engine sets the car’s 2185 kg of unladen weight in motion. And at this point it becomes palpable: the irrepressible power behind this unit is the outcome of meticulous precision and quality of workmanship. The engine in the Mercedes-AMG S 63 Cabriolet is individually produced in the AMG engine factory according to the principle of “One Man – One Engine”. Each unit, hand-assembled by a single engine technician, delivers output of 430 kW (585 hp) along with peak torque of 900 Nm, which means that in terms of performance, torque and fuel consumption, the AMG 5.5-litre V8 biturbo engine is one of the most efficient series-production V8 engines in the world. V8 71 72 The Mercedes-AMG S 65 Cabriolet. Eruptions. Made by people. The passion has been kindled, followed immediately by pure acceleration: the AMG V12 biturbo engine, with a displacement of six litres, delivers 463 kW (630 hp) along with 1000 Nm of torque. Its strong heart, with seemingly never-ending reserves of power, accelerates the car to a speed of 100 kilometres an hour in just 4.1 seconds – along with the driver’s pulse. The chrome trim at the front end of the vehicle gives a sense that an overwhelming force is approaching. 73 Open air amid magnificent scenery. The Mercedes-AMG S 65 Cabriolet is impressive, even from a distance. The monumental sound defines the tempo and timing of the symphony, while the distinctive V12-specific twin tailpipes set into the rear apron provide the organ. Thanks to the AMG sports suspension with AIRMATIC adaptive damping system, the vehicle becomes one with the road. It has been built for moments of intensity – both inside and out. It would be hard to top the interior of the Mercedes-AMG S 65 Cabriolet in terms of exclusivity – it combines performance technologies with exceptional comfort. 75 76 The Mercedes-AMG S 63 Coupé. Effortless superiority in its most powerful form. 77 The Mercedes-AMG S 63 Coupé promises big emotions. Each time it starts, the AMG 5.5-litre V8 biturbo engine – also found in the Cabriolet – unleashes untamed power of 430 kW (585 hp) and 900 Nm, while the potency of its torque will delight any driver. The optionally available performance-oriented AMG all-wheel drive system 4MATIC transfers this power to the road in effortless style, while the necessary control is provided by the AMG high-performance composite braking system with internally ventilated brake discs. The result is a driving experience that is impossible to describe. Or to forget. 78 79 Leadership at first sight. The stylistic appeal of the Mercedes-AMG S 63 Coupé lies in its distinctive lines and breathtaking design idiom. The striking front end with its hallmark AMG A-wing, the twin-blade radiator grille and the LED Intelligent Light headlamps all add up to an athletic looking vehicle. This sportiness is also systematically continued in the interior. Fine nappa leather is coupled here with attractive AMG bodystyling that includes an exclusive 3-spoke sports steering wheel, sports seats and stainless steel pedals. True greatness comes from within – and is evident from the details. 80 Perhaps the finest biturbo orchestra in the world. What does a phenomenon of nature sound like? The powerful sound of the AMG 5.5-litre V8 biturbo leaves little to the imagination in this respect. During normal driving, the AMG sports exhaust system with its automatic exhaust flaps sounds pleasantly restrained. Once the driving gets sporty though, it produces an emotive sound that you would have to go a long way to beat. The acoustics make a real statement – and, in conjunction with the two chrome-plated twin tailpipes of the AMG sports exhaust system and the 20-inch AMG forged wheels, add the final touch to the rear end of this sporty coupé. When driving in the Mercedes-AMG S 63 Coupé this aural backdrop signifies one thing above all: enjoyment, somewhere on the scale between comfort and goose bumps. SOUND 81 82 The Mercedes-AMG S 65 Coupé. Ultima emotio. The Mercedes-AMG S 65 Coupé is powered by an automotive legend: twelve cylinders, whose 463 kW (630 hp) and peak torque of 1000 Nm provide the unbridled power to catapult the driver forward in effortlessly superior fashion. A further touch of luxuryclass comfort – alongside an interior appointments package designed exclusively for the V12 – is provided by the AMG sports suspension with curve tilting function, based on MAGIC BODY CONTROL. Performance, technical details and appointments blend together here to create a peerless vehicle. Expressive elements and dynamic lines are the outward evidence that suggests its ranking: unique levels of exclusivity and performance. 83 84 Perfection is the best driving force. 85 The power behind: the rear-biased power distribution of the performance-oriented AMG all-wheel drive system 4MATIC delivers superb acceleration and agility. AIRMATIC air suspension with the variable damping system ADS PLUS ensures that the vehicle is always optimally configured for the road – even when being driven sportily. The curve tilting function* is a world premiere among standard-production automobiles: as on a banked curve, the lateral forces exerted on the occupants are reduced and passengers sit more firmly in their seats. On country roads above all, the curve tilting function adds to both driving enjoyment and comfort. The AMG 6.0-litre V12 biturbo engine in the Mercedes-AMG S 65 Cabriolet and the Mercedes-AMG S 65 Coupé embodies the spirit of the AMG brand like no other power unit. Produced according to the principle of “One Man – One Engine”, this engine guarantees top performance – with the very highest level of precision. The result: monumental power delivery coupled with incomparably enjoyable handling. There can be no more fascinating form of mobility. * Available for the Mercedes-AMG S 63 Coupé and the Mercedes-AMG S 65 Coupé. 86 87 Passion grows when it is shared: the AMG Private Lounge is our community focused around the world of AMG.
