The New Mercedes-Benz Models at This Year’s L.A. Auto Show

Mercedes-Benz brought out some new models for the 2015 L.A. Auto Show and did they bring them! Three new AMGs, two new S-Class, and two new convertibles made up their L.A. debuts. If you didn’t give Benz a look before, maybe these will make you stop in a local showroom floor.

AMG is the poster child of Mercedes performance and topping that list for most everyone is the C63 Coupe. Both the AMG C63 and C63 S Coupes will feature a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8, however the C63 S will make more power with 503-horsepower getting through the rear wheels by an AMG Speedshift MCT 7-speed transmission. Mercedes boasts that the S63s will be the only vehicle in its class with a twin-turbo V8.

For those of you looking for a more refined, wind in your hair AMG experience, the S-Class Cabriolets will be your flavor. The S63 4MATIC Cabriolet will feature a hand-built AMG 5.5-liter twin-turbo V8 with 577-horsepower getting to all four wheels.

However, if you’re just looking for a fun, open top experience, you’ll probably like the S550 Cabriolet instead. It only puts our 449-horsepower from its 4.7-liter twin-turbo V8.

Now, we know that there are those of you who live the V12 life when it comes to Mercedes Benz and they didn’t disappoint there. There will be four 2017 SL Roadsters launching in the spring of 2016, but the big boy of them all is the AMG SL65 with its 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12.

It rolls out with 621-horsepower and 738-lb/ft of torque through the AMD Speedshift Plus 7-G-TRONIC transmission. That gearing is good enough to sling the AMG SL65 to 60-MPH in just 4-seconds.
