And I am extremely joyful that we've additionally been capable of win over a unique companion for this withinside the shape of movie star will.i.am, who we had been capable of encourage with our era," says Philipp Schiemer, Chairman of the Board of Management of Mercedes-AMG GmbH."Mercedes-AMG has usually stood for pinnacle overall performance and most using dynamics. In growing our E PERFORMANCE hybrid approach, it turned into consequently clean from the outset that we might pursue a stand-on my own idea for AMG that mixes our center emblem values with excessive performance. It is now coming into collection manufacturing with the brand new Mercedes-AMG GT sixty three S E PERFORMANCE. The format with the combustion engine on the the front and Electric Drive Unit at the rear axle gives severa advantages. The optimized weight distribution, high-satisfactory viable usage of torque and the very speedy energy shipping promise using dynamics at the very best degree.
Added to that is the excessive-overall performance battery evolved in-house, which has two times the energy density of traditional pressure batteries and, like many different additives, is stimulated via way of era from Formula 1," says Jochen Hermann, Technical General Manager of Mercedes-AMG GmbH.The expressive layout with a low the front section, muscular body, brief greenhouse and dynamic fastback highlights the sporty genes of the 4-door coupe. Another placing function is the feature the front bumper, that's primarily based totally at the layout of the 2-door AMG GT. It seems to be forged from a unmarried mold, and blends homogeneously into the dynamic layout of the general car. The outer air intakes are wider and greater pointed in the direction of the middle of the auto. The airflow is channeled into the wheel arch coolers thru 3 vertical fins.
Exclusive identity functions on the rear consist of the rear bumper with incorporated plug-in charging flap and the version designation highlighted in red. With the hybrid, AMG is likewise introducing externally fluted trapezoidal dual exhaust tailpipes. The "E PERFORMANCE" badge at the fenders shows the hybrid pressure. As withinside the whole version collection, severa paint finishes and device functions are to be had for the hybrid version. For example, there are 4 matte paint finishes, 5 steel finishes and non-steel finishes to select from. In addition, there are seven new paint finishes from the prolonged customization variety. The outside layout may be similarly accentuated with the brand new AMG Night Package II or a aggregate of the Night Package and Carbon Package, as an example. In addition, there are new 20 and 21-inch mild-alloy wheels, every in colour variants. The distinctive Edition is likewise to be had for the overall performance hybrid.As the brand new flagship of the version collection, the AMG GT sixty three S E PERFORMANCE is substantially equipped. It has acquired all of the improvements of the present day version facelift, consisting of the AMG RIDE CONTROL+ suspension with new damping device. Also on board as fashionable are the tailored AMG ceramic excessive-overall performance composite brake device and the MBUX multimedia device with unique hybrid presentations.
The one hundred fifty kW (201 hp) electric powered motor is located on the rear axle, in which it's miles incorporated with an electrically shifted -pace gearbox and the electronically managed limited-slip rear differential in a compact electric powered pressure unit (EDU). Experts talk to this format as a P3 hybrid. The light-weight excessive-overall performance battery is likewise positioned above the rear axle. This compact layout has severa advantages:
The electric powered motor acts without delay at the rear axle and may consequently convert its energy greater without delay into propulsion - for that greater raise whilst shifting off, accelerating or overtaking.
The energy of the electrical motor can inherently be carried out at complete torque, making an allowance for a mainly agile start. In addition, the driving force straight away studies a substantial overall performance boom way to the incorporated, electronically managed limited-slip rear differential: The hybrid version is even greater agile whilst accelerating out of bends, and gives greater traction and consequently greater using safety. When slipping on the rear axle will increase, the pressure energy of the electrical motor is likewise transferred to the the front wheels as required for greater traction.
The mechanical connection of the absolutely variable all- wheel pressure makes this viable via a propshaft and the pressure shafts of the the front wheels.
The positioning at the rear axle improves the load in addition to the axle load distribution withinside the car and as a result bureaucracy the premise for the convincing dealing with.
The AMG idea gives very excessive regeneration performance, because the device lets in handiest minimum mechanical and hydraulic losses from the engine and transmission.
The computerized -pace transmission on the rear axle with its mainly calibrated equipment ratio guarantees the unfold from excessive wheel torque for agile beginning to secure non-stop output at better speeds. An electric powered actuator engages 2nd equipment at round one hundred forty km/h (87 mph) on the present day, which corresponds to the electrical motor's most pace of round thirteen,500 rpm.
With the boom in overall performance because of the extra electric powered motor, the improvement crew turned into additionally capable of enhance the performance of the whole car in parallel - and reap decrease emissions in addition to decrease intake.
Inspired via way of Formula 1, evolved in Affalterbach: the AMG excessive-overall performance battery
When defining the electrification approach, it turned into clean from the outset that each one vital additives might be evolved in Affalterbach. At the coronary heart of that is the AMG excessive-overall performance battery (HPB). Development of this lithium-ion battery turned into stimulated via way of technology which have already established themselves below the hardest situations withinside the Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 crew's Formula 1 hybrid racing cars. In the route of improvement, there has been a active trade of professional understanding among the High Performance Powertrains (HPP) Formula 1 engine keep in Brixworth and Mercedes-AMG in Affalterbach. The AMG excessive-overall performance battery combines excessive energy that may be referred to as up often in succession with low weight to boom the general overall performance of the car.
Added to this are the quick strength draw and the excessive energy density. This manner that in a brisk pressure in hilly terrain, as an example, drivers can straight away name on the entire energy capability on uphill stretches, at the same time as regeneration is robust whilst using downhill. The excessive-overall performance battery of the AMG GT sixty three S E PERFORMANCE has a potential of 6.1 kWh, 70 kW of non-stop output and one hundred fifty kW (201 hp) of height output for ten seconds. The low weight of handiest 89 kilograms (196 lbs) lets in the very excessive energy density of 1.7 kW/kg. For comparison: traditional batteries with out direct cooling of the cells reap approximately 1/2 of of this figure. Charging is through the 3.7 kW on-board AC charger, at a charging station, wallbox or family socket. The battery is designed for immediate energy shipping and draw, now no longer for the longest viable variety. Nevertheless, the electrical variety of 12 kilometers (7 miles) lets in for a realistic running radius, as an example, for quiet and emission-loose using from a residential place to the outskirts of the town or to the highway. The foundation for the excessive overall performance of the AMG four hundred volt battery is the revolutionary direct cooling: for the primary time, a excessive-tech coolant primarily based totally on an electrically non-conductive liquid flows round all 560 cells and cools them in my view. Every battery desires a described temperature for max energy shipping. If a battery turns into too bloodless or too hot, it fairly loses energy at instances, or must be regulated to keep away from harm if the warmth turns into excessive. The even temperature of the battery consequently has a decisive impact on its overall performance, carrier existence and basic safety. Conventional cooling structures, which handiest cools with air or the whole battery percent not directly with water, quick attain their limits - specifically because the necessities keep to boom because of cells with ever growing strength density. If the thermal control does now no longer satisfy its feature optimally, the battery is prone to growing old prematurely.For the direct cooling, the AMG experts needed to broaden new cooling modules which might be handiest millimeters thin. Around four gallons of coolant circulates from pinnacle to bottom, thru the whole battery beyond every mobileular with the assist of a mainly evolved excessive-overall performance electric powered pump, additionally flowing thru an oil/water warmness exchanger connected without delay to the battery. This conducts the warmth into one of the car's low- temperature (LT) circuits, and from there to the LT radiator on the the front of the auto in which it's miles launched into the out of doors air. The device is designed to make certain even warmness distribution withinside the battery.
The end result is that the battery is usually inside a consistent, most excellent running temperature window averaging 113 levels Fahrenheit, irrespective of how regularly it's miles charged or discharged. It could be that the common temperature is passed whilst using at excessive speeds. The safety mechanisms are consequently configured in order that the most overall performance may be received from the battery, with the temperature degree eventually diminished via way of direct cooling. Conventional cooling structures can not deal with this, and the battery can not absolutely make use of its capability. That isn't the case with the AMG excessive-overall performance battery: even at some point of speedy laps in hybrid mode at the race track, in which acceleration (battery is discharged) and deceleration (battery is charged) are frequent, the strength garage device keeps its excessive overall performance potential.
Only powerful direct cooling makes it viable to apply cells with a completely excessive energy density. Thanks to this person answer, the battery device is mainly mild and compact. The low weight is likewise because of the fabric-saving busbar idea, and the light-weight but sturdy crash shape of the aluminum housing. It guarantees the very best degree of safety.
The fundamental running approach is derived from the hybrid powerpack of the Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula 1 racing automobile. As withinside the pinnacle elegance of motorsport, most propulsion is usually to be had whilst the driving force desires it - as an example, to boost up powerfully out of corners or whilst overtaking. The electric powered energy can usually be referred to as up and often reproduced through excessive regeneration overall performance and on-call for recharging. The unbiased battery idea permits the choicest compromise among most using dynamics and modern performance. All additives are flawlessly coordinated: The overall performance advantage may be skilled without delay.
The seven AMG DYNAMIC SELECT using modes "Electric", "Comfort", "Sport", "Sport+", "RACE", "Slippery" and "Individual" are exactly configured for the brand new pressure era and as a result offer a extensive-ranging using revel in - from quite green to quite dynamic. The using modes modify critical parameters consisting of the reaction of the pressure device and transmission, the steerage feature, the suspension damping or the sound. The modes may be decided on the use of the rocker transfer withinside the middle console or the AMG steerage wheel buttons.
Usually, the Performance hybrid begins offevolved silently ("Silent Mode") withinside the "Comfort" using mode whilst the electrical motor is switched on. In the device cluster, the "Ready" icon indicators that the car is prepared to pressure. In addition, a effective, sonorous start-up sound regular of AMG is emitted withinside the indoors through the car's loudspeakers as acoustic comments displaying readiness to get going. Slight strain at the accelerator pedal is all it takes to set the AMG Performance hybrid in motion.
When using on all-electric powered energy, the legally required Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System warns the environment that the Performance hybrid is approaching. A mainly composed low-frequency, pace- structured AMG sound is emitted to the out of doors through unmarried loudspeakers on the the front and rear. The sound also can be heard at a subdued degree withinside the indoors, as acoustic comments for the passengers. In the European Union the device is lively up to twenty km/h (12 mph), withinside the USA as much as the equal of approx. 30 km/h (18 mph). After that, the using sign fades out harmoniously as much as approx. 50 km/h (31 mph).
At better speeds, the purchaser can pick out their favored sound revel in among "balanced" and "effective" the use of the sound buttons withinside the middle console or at the steerage wheel (diagnosed via way of a frequency wave symbol): When using on all-electric powered energy, both a discreet or a effective sound revel in is generated. When the combustion engine begins offevolved, the chosen putting impacts the sound of the exhaust device. In each situation, one aspect stays the same: the Performance hybrid is straight away recognizable as an AMG via way of its sound."Electric" using mode: The consciousness is on the electrical using revel in. All-electric powered using is viable from standstill as much as a hundred thirty km/h (eighty mph), with the combustion engine switched off. The mechanical connection to the AMG Performance 4MATIC+ additives manner that each one-wheel pressure is usually to be had: If the rear wheels all of sudden have an excessive amount of slip, the energy of the electrical motor is likewise transmitted to the the front wheels through the propshaft and pressure shafts. When the battery has run down or the driving force requests greater energy, the wise running manage routinely switches to the "Comfort" using mode and the combustion engine begins offevolved as much as offer propulsion.
"Comfort" using mode: the start-up is generally electric powered. Combustion engine and electric powered motor run to in shape the necessities of every situation - with electric powered pressure at low speeds, as an example in residential regions or withinside the internal town, hybrid using with combustion engine and electric powered motor withinside the nation-state and at the highway. Overall, the end result is a harmonious and intake-optimized using revel in, thank you in element to the early upshifts of the AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT-9G transmission. Suspension and steerage are configured with an emphasis on comfort. The consciousness of the steerage is on strength performance, in order that gasoline intake and emissions may be decreased. The hallmark AMG sportiness and agility are retained.
"Sport" using mode: beginning with combustion engine and electric powered motor and situational interplay of the 2 drives. An extra raise from the electrical motor is launched. Sporty using revel in because of greater agile accelerator reaction, shorter shift instances and in advance downshifts. A greater dynamic suspension and steerage setup.
"Sport+" using mode: beginning with combustion engine and electric powered motor and situational interplay of the 2 drives. Even better overall performance raise. Extremely sporty person way to even greater agile throttle reaction and centered torque intervention at some point of upshifts with cylinder deactivation for max shift instances. Increased idle pace for quicker beginning. An even greater dynamic set-up for suspension, steerage and powertrain.
"RACE" using mode: for quite dynamic using on closed race tracks. In this mode, all of the parameters are configured for optimum overall performance, beginning with combustion engine and electric powered motor and situational interplay of the 2 drives. Full electric powered raise energy from the electrical motor to guide the combustion engine at some point of tough acceleration. Strong battery recharging at low energy call for for optimum electric availability.
"Slippery" using mode: optimized for slippery street situations, with decreased energy and a flat torque curve. All-electric powered using and regeneration adjustment are deactivated."Individual" using mode: person customization of the pressure, transmission, AMG DYNAMICS, chassis, steerage and exhaust device.
The manage of car dynamics additionally blessings from the hybrid pressure. Instead of braking intervention via way of ESP®, the electrical motor also can manage traction as quickly as a wheel indicators an excessive amount of slip. To do this, the wise manage device reduces the pressure torque of the electrical motor this is transferred to the wheel through the limited- slip rear differential. The end result is that ESP® does now no longer should intrude at all, or handiest later. Advantage: the combustion engine can as a result be operated with better torque, which each improves agility afterwards and will increase performance. In addition, the energy otherwise "lost" at some point of braking may be used to fee the battery.
Because the excessive-overall performance battery is usually withinside the most excellent temperature window of round forty five levels way to direct cooling, regeneration also can be optimized - typically a battery heats up strongly at excessive regeneration energy, in order that strength recuperation desires to be limited.
Regeneration begins offevolved whilst drivers takes their foot off the accelerator pedal, i.e. in overrun mode with out touching the brake pedal. This prices the battery and creates a sturdy braking torque - the wheel brakes are subjected to much less put on or, relying at the regeneration degree and site visitors situation, do now no longer should be carried out at all.
The motive force can pick out 4 exceptional regeneration tiers the use of the proper-hand AMG steerage wheel button. This applies in all using modes with the exception of "Slippery", the strength recuperation is then configured in another way relying on the chosen using mode.
Level 0: The car behaves further to a traditional combustion engine with guide transmission, in which the grab is disengaged, and rolls on with the least resistance whilst the accelerator is launched. The regeneration degree could be very low, and handiest serves to preserve the car's energy deliver. With the combustion engine switched off, friction losses withinside the drivetrain are decreased to a minimal.
Level 1: This is the usual putting at which regeneration is substantial to the driving force, and corresponds correctly to the deceleration of a traditional combustion engine whose grab is engaged.
Level 2: Stronger regeneration, the brake pedal infrequently desires to be driven whilst shifting in site visitors.
Level 3: Maximum strength recuperation, making "one-pedal" using viable as in an all-electric powered automobile. Depending at the using status, greater than a hundred kW of energy may be fed returned into the battery.
Special function of the RACE using mode: On the racetrack, the driving force desires to squeeze the most time viable out of any braking action. In "RACE" using mode, regeneration is routinely set at degree 1 to permit the maximum reproducible car conduct viable on the limits.
Another gain of regeneration is that the car does now no longer accelerate whilst using down steep hills. So the device works like an engine brake, however additionally feeds strength into the battery.
As the brand new pinnacle version withinside the variety, the AMG GT sixty three S E PERFORMANCE blessings from the overall performance of the AMG four.0-liter V8 biturbo engine with 470 kW (630 hp) and a most torque of 900 Nm (664 lb-ft), that's to be had over a extensive rpm band from 2500 to 4500 rpm. This harmonizes flawlessly with the electrical motor, which grants its most of 320 Nm (236 lb-ft) proper from the start.
Two dual-scroll turbochargers are in part accountable for the excessive energy output, combining most excellent reaction at low engine speeds with a excessive boom in energy at better engine speeds. In addition to this, the turbine housing is split into go with the drift passages which run parallel to 1 another. Combined with separate ducts withinside the exhaust manifold, this makes it viable to in my view manage the momentum of the exhaust gases performing at the turbine wheel. One duct is fed via way of the exhaust gases of the primary and 2nd cylinders of a cylinder bank, the opposite via way of the exhaust gases of the 1/3 and fourth cylinders. The purpose is to save you the person cylinders from having at the same time negative consequences at the fueloline cycle. This reduces the exhaust fueloline returned- strain and improves the fueloline trade.
The belt-pushed starter-generator (RSG) combines the alternator and starter in a single component, and has an output of 10 kW (thirteen hp). It begins offevolved the combustion engine and guarantees the fundamental deliver of the ancillary gadgets consisting of air con or using lights, as an example, whilst the car is at a site visitors mild and the fee degree of the excessive-voltage battery is not enough to guide the low-voltage on-board electric device. The RSG is mainly responsive due to the fact it's miles incorporated into the four hundred-volt excessive-voltage electric device.
The AMG RIDE CONTROL+ suspension is primarily based totally on multi-chamber air suspension with computerized degree manage, blended with adaptive, electronically managed adjustable damping. This damping device is absolutely new withinside the AMG GT four-door Coupe fashions: for the primary time, strain remedy valves are utilized. These constantly variable manage valves, positioned out of doors the damper, permit the damping pressure to be adjusted even greater exactly to exceptional using situations and using modes: one valve controls the rebound damping, i.e. the pressure that takes place whilst the wheel rebounds, and the opposite controls the compression damping whilst the wheel compresses. The rebound and compression degrees are managed independently of every different.
The AMG improvement engineers had been capin a position to noticeably boom the differentiation among sportiness and comfort, amongst different matters via way of widening the distance among the minimal and most damping pressure traits and via way of presenting even more flexibility in map layout. Due to the unique layout of the valves, the damper reacts quick and sensitively to converting street surfaces and using situations.
The motive force can preselect the fundamental set-up through the AMG DYNAMIC SELECT using modes: on the contact of a button, the dealing with traits change, as an example, from complete dynamics in "Sport+" mode to easy cruising withinside the "Comfort" putting. In addition, the tuning may be adjusted in 3 degrees independently of the using modes through a devoted button.
The AMG Performance hybrids additionally have the incorporated AMG DYNAMICS car dynamics manage device. It impacts the manage techniques of ESP® (Electronic Stability Program), the all-wheel pressure, and the electronically managed limited-slip rear differential. This will increase agility with out negatively affecting the car's balance.
Particularly noteworthy: AMG DYNAMICS determines how the car ought to react. The device makes use of the to be had sensors, amongst different matters, to check the pace, lateral acceleration, steerage perspective and yaw rate. Thanks to an wise pilot-manage principle, it's miles viable to assume how the driving force needs the car to behave, primarily based totally at the motive force's movements and on facts from the sensors. Regulation is customized to the dynamic using competence of the driving force - with none substantial or disruptive interventions via way of the device. The motive force receives a completely genuine using experience with excessive cornering dynamics and most excellent traction, in addition to excessive balance and predictable dealing with. Even skilled drivers obtain most excellent help with out feeling patronized via way of the device.
AMG DYNAMICS "Basic" is assigned to the "Comfort" and "Electric" using mode. The layout consequences in a completely strong journey with excessive yaw damping.
"Advanced" is activated withinside the "Sport" mode. The car stays neutrally balanced. The decreased yaw damping and improved agility guide dynamic maneuvers consisting of using on winding u . s . roads.
"Pro" (abbreviation for "Professional") is a part of the "Sport+" mode. In "Pro" the driving force gets even greater help for dynamic using maneuvers at the same time as agility and comments from the street whilst cornering are similarly enhanced.
"Master" is coupled with the using mode "RACE". "Master" mode is aimed toward drivers who need to revel in dynamism and the using amusement on closed circuits. "Master" gives a barely oversteering car balance, greater direct steerage and greater agile turn-in conduct. In this way, "Master" guarantees most agility and optimally exploits the dynamic capability of the "S" version. To activate "Master" mode, the driving force need to use the separate button withinside the middle console to exchange ESP® to ESP® SPORT dealing with mode or ESP® OFF.
In the "Individual" using mode, drivers can set the AMG DYNAMICS tiers "Basic", "Advanced", "Pro" and "Master" themselves.Without making any compromises in terms of the brakes: In retaining with the intense energy values and the related overall performance, the AMG ceramic excessive-overall performance composite brake device with bronze- coloured 6-piston constant calipers on the the front and 1-piston floating calipers on the rear is equipped as fashionable. It is customized to the excessive using dynamics, and large than withinside the fashions with handiest a combustion engine: the carbon-ceramic brake discs degree 420 x forty millimeters (17 x 2 inches) on the the front axle and 380 x 32 millimeters (15 x 1 inches) on the rear axle. The brake device impresses with very brief braking distances in addition to most balance and fade-resistance below heavy use. In addition, it rankings with an extended carrier existence and a mainly speedy reaction. Furthermore, the light-weight fabric saves extra weight and decreases the unsprung masses. Comfort functions consist of hill beginning help and priming/dry braking in moist situations. With the ignition switched off and the car at a standstill, the transmission routinely selects the parking position "P". Meanwhile, the electrical parking brake releases routinely whilst pulling away.Mercedes-AMG is likewise breaking new floor in speaking the brand new hybrid version. The American international supermegacelebrity and entrepreneur will.i.am will act as an extended-time period companion and emblem ambassador for the "Future of Driving Performance" automobiles with an electrified powertrain. The Black Eyed Peas co-founder and the front man, musician, manufacturer and tech entrepreneur is the recipient of 7 Grammy Awards, an Emmy Award, a CLIO Award and an Honorary Fellowship from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET).But it's now no longer all: will.i.am is a real automobile fanatic who substantially modifies his personal automobiles with a excessive degree of technical and aesthetic understanding. He has a eager eye for improvements that bridge the distance among subculture and era.
