February 14 2023,
Mercedes-AMG continues to redefine modern luxury engineering with the C 43 4MATIC, a vehicle with power, efficiency and driver control unmatched by any other in its class. At the heart of this machine lies an AMG 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that is the first series production model to feature an electric exhaust gas turbocharger. This setup gives the car 401 hp paired with a potent rush of 13 horsepower delivered by the belt-driven starter-generator (BSG) when conditions are right.
With this newly refined powertrain delivering unprecedented handling and speed, Mercedes-AMG’s C 43 4MATIC stands as a true milestone in automotive excellence. Let's explore the other features that make this car a must-have for those seeking an incredible driving experience.
AMG 2.0-litre
The all-new Mercedes-AMG C 43 4MATIC is a feat of engineering, combining the latest in automotive technology and high performance with efficiency. At its core is the AMG 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine, designed and built in Affalterbach according to the "One Man, One Engine" principle. This engine features an electric exhaust gas turbocharger - a direct derivative from Formula 1 - resulting in dynamic response and increased efficiency across the rev range for an even more thrilling driving experience.
As previously stated, the C 43 packs a punch with its engine producing 402 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque, plus an extra 13 hp boost from the belt-driven starter generator (BSG). This impressive output allows for fast acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.6 seconds, with an electronically limited top speed of 240 km/h (or 265 km/h with the optional AMG Driver's Package). Enjoy superior power and comfort thanks to innovative 48-volt technology that ensures a smooth transition between start-stop functions and gliding mode.
Driving Dynamics
The new AMG offers drivers an individualized driving experience with its five AMG DYNAMIC SELECT drive programs and the integrated AMG DYNAMICS control system. This allows for adjustable ESP, tailored to different driving conditions, plus the use of the Adaptive Damping System and three damping maps in the AMG RIDE CONTROL steel-spring suspension for superior power, comfort and safety.
Furthermore, it provides a dynamic and comfortable steering experience with its three-stage AMG parameter steering system, plus the added benefit of rear-axle steering featuring a maximum steering angle of 2.5 degrees - up to 100 km/h the rear wheels turn in the opposite direction to the front wheels, reducing the turning circle and increasing manoeuvrability; and from 100 km/h onwards they turn parallel for improved driving stability. The response of the rear-axle steering also depends on the selected AMG DYNAMIC SELECT drive program.
AMG Inside and Out
Enjoy superior sportiness, luxury and performance on the inside and out with the C 43 4MATIC. Featuring AMG-specific elements like a chrome radiator grille, flics on the front apron, AMG light alloy wheels, an AMG Performance steering wheel with two round buttons to quickly adjust dynamic driving functions, as well as MBUX infotainment system displays with lap and sector times. The interior further provides an unforgettable experience of sporty-luxury ambience with seats upholstered in ARTICO man-made leather/ MICROCUT microfibre and optional leather covers, red contrasting stitching, red seat belts, AMG sports pedals, illuminated door sill trims and more.
The Mercedes-AMG C 43 4MATIC is a true engineering feat, combining the latest in automotive technology with high performance and efficiency. With all of these amazing features combined into one car model, the Mercedes-AMG C 43 4MATIC stands out among other cars on the market today - making it a must-have for drivers seeking an incredible driving experience.
