Spied: 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class Limo in Performance AMG Specification


The closest you'll get to a performance orientated model in the upcoming Mercedes-Benz S-Class sedan range (codenamed W222) is no doubt the two AMG-branded and –developed models to be sold under the S63 and S65 AMG monikers.

There is no question that the prototype S-Class spied by our scoop photographers while filing up at a gas station in Germany is one of the two AMG models, and thanks to the square tail pipes, we can tell you that this is most likely the S63 variant as the S65 features twin oval-shaped exhausts on either side of the bumper.

According to sources, both iterations are expected to keep the same powerplants as the current models, though AMG engineers may make some subtle tweaks to improve their fuel efficiency.
