Continuing with its C-Class showcase in Detroit, Mercedes-Benz also put on display the previously announced C450 AMG® Sport. This car is meant to fill in the white space between the C400 and the C63 AMG®. The 3.0-liter twin turbo V6 engine gets a boost from 329 horsepower to 362, with a torque increase of 30 pound-feet to 384. With that power, the C450 will sprint to 60 miles per hour in 4.9 seconds.
There’s more to say about the C450 than increased power. It also gets all-wheel drive and the 7G-Tronic transmission and an AMG® adaptive sport suspension, complete with three-stage adjustable dampers.
It goes without saying that the car’s looks have also been suitably AMG-ified.
You can read a full press-release on the C450 AMG® Sport here, and look at live photos from the floor of the Detroit Auto Show here.
