The next-generation Mercedes-Benz E-Class is under development. Recent spy photos showed the sedan variant losing some of its camouflage, and the styling changes will apply to the entire model range, including the AMG E63 variant. However, our spy photographers have not yet captured the high performance model tested, but a new render from our friends at Engine.es attempt to predict what it will look like when it debuts.
If regular E-Class test vehicles are any indication, the E63 will likely receive an evolutionary design update. The render shows the performance brand’s iconic Panamericana grille, flanked by redesigned headlights with new light signatures, which we’ve seen before in spy shots. This rendering connects the grille to the headlights with black trim, a styling feature found on other Mercedes models.

Beneath the new face is a large lower grille opening flanked by large air intakes and black trim. The fender features a stylish vent on a badge that likely mentions the “E Performance” powertrain hidden under the hood. We don’t know what kind of engine the next-gen AMG E63 will arrive with, but it will likely be a hybrid, just like the other AMG variants.
The AMG S63 E Performance debuted earlier this week, featuring a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine and an electric motor with a plug. Total output is a staggering 791 horsepower (590 kilowatts) and 1,055 pound-feet (1,430 Newton-meters) of torque. At the other end of the spectrum is the C63 SE Performance, which gives a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder electric assistance to create 671 hp (493 kW) and 752 lb-ft (1,019 Nm) of torque. Either engine might suffice in the AMG E63.
The end of the year is approaching, leaving little time for Mercedes to unveil the new E-Class. We expect the car to come out of cover in the first half of 2023; however, we don’t expect to see the AMG variant alongside it. Our spy photographers haven’t captured it yet, and Mercedes often reveals them months after the standard model breaks out. We could see the debut of the next-generation AMG E63 sedan and wagon before the end of next year.
