2010 Mercedes-Benz S Class Model nomenclature

In early Mercedes-Benz history, the "S-Class" designation was used colloquially, referring to the letter "S" which designated most of the larger six-cylinder powered vehicles in the company's lineup (but not the luxurious V8-powered 600 limousine). In typical Mercedes-Benz fashion introduced in the late 1920s, the traditional designation of each car consisted of three numbers indicating engine size (up to 770 in the 1930s), and optional letters indicating either engine features ("260D" since the first Diesel of 1936) or body styles ("K" for kompressor (typically a Roots compressor) as in the 1930s 500K or 540K). After World War II, these codes were often carried over from one generation to the next.

Mercedes CLK63 AMG

It's not the car that's important, more what's changed under the bonnet. This is our first taste of a road car powered by AMG's new naturally aspirated 6.3-litre V8. True, there was nothing wrong with that engine's outright performance, only the manner in which it was delivered.

The big flat torque curve made it easy to go fast, but it all felt and sounded a bit linear. And it wasn't very efficient: just running the supercharger sapped 100bhp. Stop worrying anyway, the project's been in safe hands of AMG's Powertrain Director, Bernd Ramler. His last job was designing the engine for the Porsche Carrera GT.
