2016 Mercedes-Benz C450 AMG 4Matic
We cognoscenti have effectively discovered that "genuine" AMGs — the ones with a motor inherent Affalterbach and signed by a solitary specialist — now get the "AMG" composed before the letter/number assignment and this new type of mid-value Hammers say AMG after the number. They'll likewise, it shows up, all be getting 4Matic all-wheel drive to make their execution more available to this new Goldilocksian class of less no-nonsense execution customer base. (AMG driving school isn't a piece of the arrangement on these.)
Normally, AMG will enter this market specialty from a place of predominant motor execution by turning up the wick on the twin-turbo, 3.0-liter V-6 that has been serving the C400 territory. (That model will be dropped upon the C450's presentation for 2016.) By bumping the help up, yield moves from 329 hp and 354 lb-ft in the C400 to 362/384. That is fragment driving push against the S4's 333/325 and BMW 335i's (as a matter of fact bashful) 300/300. Goodness, and there's a lively red applique on the motor cover.
The solitary transmission decision is Mercedes' 7G-Tronic programmed, which utilizes a customary torque converter yet is modified for crisper, snappier moves in the Sport+ setting of the AMG Dynamic Select program. Motor start and infusion timing is somewhat hindered to speed these movements up and make them sound sportier. The standard 4Matic all-wheel-drive framework is tuned by AMG for sportier taking care of with a perpetual front/raise torque split of 33/67 percent, and the steadiness control framework is modified to bolster cornering with brake-impelled Curve Dynamic Assist.
The suspension likewise profits by AMG fettling, including altogether changed geometry (a touch more negative camber front and back for better cornering), elastokinematics (bushings hardened to oppose parallel element burdens), and fitment of three-position electronic damping and variable electric directing help frameworks like those utilized on the C63. Brakes are likewise upsized to 14.2-crawl front and 12.6-creep raise vented rotors.
To make Goldilocks OK with the prominence of her new AMG, the outside gets a decklid spoiler and modified belts, with the admission nostrils in front flaring to look more threatening and indecent than a C300 however easily less so than a C63. These components are further upgraded by sparkle dark emphasize trim, unique 18-creep standard or 19-crawl discretionary AMG wheels, and new AMG sports display logo identifications on both front bumpers. (They're not quite the same as those of the enormous kid AMGs.) Inside there's red sewing in abundance on the leatherette-secured dash, entryway trim, seats, comfort, and directing wheel, in addition to aluminum and piano-dark trim. (Woods are discretionary.)
Out and about, the C450 AMG's progression possess a strongly sweet spot in the C-Class lineup — way more capable and enjoyable to hurl around than the cooking-review C300, calmer and marginally more agreeable than the C63 with a discernibly lighter, more agile nose. Having driven them straightforwardly consecutive, the C450's directing and turn-in really felt all the more fulfilling on open streets. On a wide, smooth track with FIA-endorsed spillover and security and no contradicting activity, I'll pick the C63 unfailingly, yet in southern Portugal's sloping, twisty, contract, Algarve slope nation with Sport+ and delicate damping chose, the C450's certain footedness and deftness demonstrated delightfully captivating with a tad of that "more amusing to drive a moderate auto quick" thing putting it all on the line. And afterward there's that similarly captivating fumes note — you get the C63's same kind of braaps and farts on downshifts and overwhelm, just sung in a marginally higher V-6 enroll. You'll wind up fingering the short oar just to appreciate the clamor.
Valuing has not been finished but rather is required to reflect the S4's, so figure mid-$50s to begin with sufficient open doors on the request sheet to blow up that. At $54,000, with respect to the base C300, you're paying a 37 percent base value premium to get 50 percent more drive and 41 percent more torque — sensible value for the money. Utilizing a similar math, Audi S4 people pay 52 percent for 51 and 26 percent, and a 335i with all the M-Sport boxes ticked costs 41 percent more than a base 320i yet purchases 67 and 50 percent all the more (conservatively evaluated) pull and torque.
Before my landing in Portugal, I was worried this new yield of semi AMGs would weaken the brand's Hammer picture. What are these, diamond setters' sledges? Not a chance. Class-overwhelming force that sounds comparable to it feels in addition to race-reproduced flow and simply enough visual dramatization fulfill me that these autos have earned their dark AMG identifications. We'll arrange a correlation trial of these C tweeners when the main C450s hit our shores, yet for the time being we're willing to hear how our perusers impede that go head to head. Tell us in the remarks.
