Mercedes released today a new commercial for its CLS63 AMG Shooting Brake. The ad features the newest addition in the AMG range. The background is ensured by Phil Collins, singing "In the air tonight". Mercedes targets its main competitors in the segment, reffering to them as imitators.
Just like the CLS 63 AMG saloon, the Shooting Brake version uses a 5.5-litre biturbo V8 to produce 525 HP and 700 Nm of torque from 1,750 to 5,250 rpm, figures which can be increased to 550 HP and 800 Nm of torque with the optional Performance Package.
The car uses an AMG Speedshift MCT 7-speed sport transmission and depending on the output, it can sprint from 0 to 62 mph in wither 4.4 or 4.3 seconds, while its top speed is electronically limited to 155 mph.
In terms of efficiency the Mercedes CLS 63 AMG Shooting Brake can cover 100 Km on 10.1 litres of fuel (28 mpg UK rating / 23.3 mpg US rating), while the CO2 emission levels reach 235 grams per Km.
