The new Mercedes-AMG C 43 4MATIC Coupe

Mercedes-AMG has added another sporty model to its C-Class family - the new C 43 4MATIC Coupe. The Affalterbach-based development teams have put together a scintillating engineering package for a highly dynamic driving experience.

At its heart is an AMG-specific 3.0-litre V6 twin-turbo engine that produces 367bhp and 520Nm of torque. It is combined with the new 9G-TRONIC automatic transmission that provides agile gearshifts. Model-specific software substantially reduces shift times, allowing faster short bursts of speed. 

The Mercedes-AMG C 43 4MATIC Coupe offers the optimum conditions for high driving dynamics and outstanding comfort on long journeys thanks to the standard-fit AMG RIDE CONTROL sports suspension. It also features AMG Performance 4MATIC all-wheel drive with rear-biased torque distribution of 31 to 69 percent (front axle to rear axle).

The Mercedes-AMG C 43 4MATIC Coupe is likewise sporty in appearance, making it instantly recognisable as a member of the AMG family. Characteristic features include the distinctive AMG styling as well as the specific light-alloy wheels. This includes the front apron with sporty distinctive air intakes, diamond meshes, silver chrome trim, as well as the rear apron with matt iridium silver diffuser insert. Additional highlights include the black exterior mirror housings, the high-gloss black waistline trim strip and window frame, as well as the two chrome-plated tailpipes with centre divider.

The interior reinforces the consistently dynamic bias with numerous specially designed details. The driver finds a secure position in the sports seat even driving at speed thanks to the improved lateral support. The ARTICO man-made leather/DINAMICA microfibre upholstery and the instrument panel trimmed with ARTICO create a very sporty ambience. The man-made leather is also used on the upper edges of the body, the armrests, the door centre panels and the centre console. 

The AMG instrument cluster delivers all relevant information in a clearly arranged layout optimised for a dynamic driving style. An authentic sports car look and feel is provided by two tube-shaped round dials, a 4.5-inch multifunction colour display, RACETIMER and 280km/h scale in chequered-flag design.
