The latest-generation Mercedes S-Class (W223) has been available for a while with a plug-in hybrid setup, but those in need of more oomph will have to wait for the AMG model. Yes, for the first time ever, the performance version of Daimler\u2019s fullsize luxury sedan will be offered as a PHEV. It\u2019s believed to go by the name of S63 E Performance by adopting the same suffix used by the GT 63 S E Performance<\/a>.<\/p>\n

An official release might be right around the corner considering the prototype seen here has barely any camouflage on its body. We can clearly see there\u2019s an extra cap for the charging port located on the driver\u2019s side rear fender while the one for the gasoline tank is on the other side. The quad exhaust flanking the rear diffuser clearly shows we are dealing with the AMG model.<\/p>\n

Not only that, but Mercedes didn\u2019t bother to camouflage the aggressive Panamericana front grille with its retro-flavored vertical slats on both sides of the large three-pointed star logo. The front bumper design shows enlarged air intakes to cool down the uprated V8 engine. As for the side profile, we\u2019re getting the impression the prototype rides closer to the road than a normal S-Class, thus suggesting it had a stiffer suspension.<\/p>\n
