Mercedes-AMG C63: Next-gen to get 4cyl PHEV power - report

The next-generation Mercedes-AMG C63 could ditch V8 power all together, in favour of an emissions-friendly plug-in hybrid four-cylinder powertrain – according to a new report. Britain's Autocar claims the new C63 will be the first of a number of upcoming AMG models to use an electrified version of the brand's new 'M139' 2.0-litre turbo four which debuted in the A45/CLA45 twins, and should be launched around 2022.
