2025 mercedesamg gt63 s e performance — View Photos of the 2025 AMG GT63 S E Performance Mercedes-AMG

Much like the C-class before it, the GT63 now picks up a plug-in-hybrid powertrain. The GT63 S E Performance electrifies its V-8 powertrain, sending output to a spicy 805 horsepower and 1047 pound-feet of torque.

Besides some small writing on the badge and the charge port door on the rear bumper, there's no telling the E Performance apart from lesser GT63s.

Such as the pure-gasser GT63, under the hood is a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8, making 603 horsepower and 627 pound-feet in the E Performance.

At the rear axle is an electric drive unit that consists of a motor with 201 horses and 236 pound-feet, a two-speed transmission, an electronically controlled limited-slip differential, an inverter, and a 4.8-kWh liquid-cooled lithium-ion battery pack.

The electric motor puts out full thrust for 10-second hits before tapering off to 94-hp doses in 60-second intervals.

The engine and motor combine to produce a staggering 805 horses and 1047 pound-feet, routed to all four wheels.

Mercedes claims the e-unit adds nearly 500 pounds to the already-porky platform. By our math, that places the GT63 S E Performance right around 4800 pounds.

Monster 16.5-inch carbon-ceramic rotors pinched by six-piston calipers live within the front wheels, while 15.0-inch units and an off-putting single-piston caliper reside out back.

Mercedes claims 60 mph arrives in 2.7 seconds with Race Start activated, and the top speed is governed at 199 mph.

For those who want to try their luck, there's a not-so-advertised Drift Mode that decouples the front axle, sending all 805 horses to the rear tires. You've been warned.

Keep going to check out even more pictures of the 2025 Mercedes-AMG GT63 S E Performance.
