Sure, we’re fans of the AMG GT sports cars (and their confusing alphabet variations); we’re also not against the insanely opulent Maybachs range; and we all know how popular the hulking G-Wagens are in the Gulf. But for our money, the 2018 Mercedes-AMG E63 is the current best car in the Mercedes line-up.
For those of you just tuning in, here’s a brief refresh as to why this is the Benz to buy over anything else. It has a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 that makes 603 horsepower and 627 lb-ft of torque to bring the E63 to 100kph in about 3.4 seconds. It has all-wheel-drive for safe traction in bad weather and a drift mode for when traction seems a bit overrated.
Of course, the E63 comes with all the luxurious and technological accouterments that would expect from a German executive car. But what makes this model better than all the others that are adorned with the three-pointed star is that all of these of wonderful things are housed in sedan form, which is the superior body style when you need one vehicle to do it all.
