Mercedes supersaloon swaps its V8 for a plug-in hybrid four-cylinder For 25 years, Mercedes-AMG has used a V8 engine to define the unique appeal of its â€˜superâ€™ C-Class.The very first V8-powered one, the W202-generation C43 AMG, emerged just as Mercedesâ€™ then-parent DaimlerChrysler was buying control of what would become its in-house performance brand right at the end of 1997. It became the very first AMG model to be built on one of Mercedesâ€™ own production lines.If not for the V8 C-Class, then, perhaps AMG might not have become the success it is today. But, like it or not, another page in the AMG development story is now being turned. The V8 C-Class is dead â€“ and its usurper isÂ the new four-cylinder Mercedes-AMG C63 S E Performance.
