Hello 2020 Mercedes-AMG E63, Congrats About The Nose Job

Mercedes-AMG launched the E63 less than three years ago, yet, as is the trend in the industry, is already working on a revamped version, which was spied testing on and around the Nurburgring recently, in Sedan and Estate body styles.

Going under the knife will bring the range-topping members of the E-Class family in line with the rest of modern high-end AMGs, and this includes the addition of the Panamericana grille that has become a staple of top models that roll out of Affalterbach these days.

It’s very hard to tell whether the front bumper sports any changes, but we’re tempted to say it does. The headlights and taillights probably feature different graphics, too, whereas the diffuser and rear bumper are now separated by a chrome strip. The quad exhaust tips seem to have remained the same, while new alloys with reworked patterns will round up the updated looks.

We still cannot catch a glimpse inside, but we believe the 2020 E63 will get the latest version of the MBUX system, complete with the new touchpad, as well as an updated center console and steering wheel.

Other details remain scarce, but we wouldn’t be surprised if AMG bumps up the output of its 4.0-liter, twin-turbo V8, which in the current E63 and E63 S develops 571 PS (563 hp / 420 kW) and 750 Nm (553 lb-ft) of torque, and 612 PS (603 hp / 450 kW) and 850 Nm (627 lb-ft), respectively.

With the unveiling of the updated E63 models, which should take place next year, Mercedes-AMG will take on the BMW M5 and Audi RS6 Avant with new vigor – and, as you can imagine, we can’t wait to see them go against each other.
