Utterly Ecstatic

The fastest car to ever wear the E badge, the Mercedes-AMG E63 S, means business!

- Ravi Ved

There are two sides to every performance car. One side, of course, is the numbers – acceleration figures, top-speed, power-to-weight ratio, and so on. In the case of the new Mercedes-AMG E63 S, that points to over 600 horses and the ability to cross the 100km/h mark in just over 3 seconds. And while these figures are impressive, like the cover of a book, they don’t quite tell the whole story. This brings us to the other side – one that you can only experience from behind the wheel. Fortunately, we got the chance to experience this 4.0-litre firebreather, and we did it at none other than the Buddh International Circuit – could there be a better place?
