This is the new Mercedes-AMG CLS 53 and everything you want to know about it! From a full in-depth walkaround to heading out on the roads near Barcelona in the latest car from AMG. Now in the third generation of the CLS, the 53 also marks the introduction of a new engine model to the Mercedes line. Let's find out what it's all about!
The global launch event for the new CLS was hosted by Mercedes near to Barcelona, Spain with perfect weather to spend some time with the luxury 4 door coupe and discover its capabilities. First is an exploration of the car, seeing the ins and outs. Then it's a short drive around the local roads to experience it in that environment before returning to a much more detailed look at the interior controls, displays and luxury features.
Thanks for watching, Tim

Can't wait to hear about all the problems this new powertrain gives. I was excited to hear MB was returning to using I6 motors but of course they had to reinvent the wheel. The I6 motor along with the electric motors AND the turbo does sound brilliant in theory and the R&D must have been insane but I sure hope it can be a reliable package for many many miles.

SNUIF It's not a real AMG. Every real AMG has that badge on its engine. It's basically an AMG-lite, pitched to compete with the M performance cars with more than one number after the M (like M140i) but not true M and the Audi S series (but not RS).

Is the engine actually build by AMG? Since for me it sounds more like the 43AMG Tag... The 43 wasnt build by AMG. Mercedes just took the AMG bodykit, suspension and some little motor tune, to put an AMG Tag onto their 400 labeled cars. Since there is no label on the engine of this car i dont think this is a true amg. No handcrafted Engine = not an AMG... 45, 63 and 65 are the only true AMGs at this point... :/

They can call it whatever they want, this is clearly NOT an AMG! All upcoming 53, 43 and even 35 AMG are fully trash, and have nothing to do with the principles why the AMG brand got its reputation. A true AMG is a 63 or 65 (natural aspirated or even turbo charged) with a 5 to 7 liter V8 or V12, in a classy, edged and fake-elements-free Mercedes, which consumes 20l+ petrol and costs you at least 100k.

@plastar99 - Yeah, and a "real" locomotive burns coal. But still, the electrified TGV goes up to 600 km/h and fucks this coal-burner in each situation. I bet, the CLS53 has no wheelspin, while each older E63 AMG burns off its wheels for at least 2 seconds, before it starts. Why not driving an AMG with 10 liters only? And be cool: The CLS53 will cost over 100.000.

in my opinion, there is no Mercedes turbocharged V8 that's ever going to scream like an I6, or feel smoother than an Inline 6. It's definitely a cool direction for MB. It's been nearly 20 years since they've had an I-6 in production, but it's absolutely a staple for them. The I-6 has been used by them since the late 20s, and this revival could be viewed as a tribute to many past AMG models that utilized such an engine.

With the Corvette they made some improvements on the z06. And allowed their customers who bought the previous model year to upgrade their cars. Has any one else done that in recent years.

With this car, AMG have finally devalued their brand to the point where I jump ship. What a joke of a car. Only AMG styling, and it's not the best. WTF have they done? Quiet/soft start up. Is AMG now just a brand name for expensive Mercedes, rather than a motoring philosophy?? If you spent all that money buying this car, you would be a laughing stock in the presence of true petrol engine enthusiasts.

Larry Kippings yes because people who buy these cars care about the opinions of petrol heads. That’s like a Tesla guy caring about petrol heads when the Model S will smoke most petroleum head vehicles.

True petrolheads actually appreciate all cars and their intentions. It's KZfaq idiots like yourself and superficial people that would laugh and let's be honest, in the presence of normal people who cares what the above mentioned think? In the end they're total idiots. I never see people bashing BMW and their M Branding on lots of non M cars (like the M235i and M240i despite the M2 being present in the lineup) yet Mercedes decides to do that and make a great car yet it's automotive blasphemy according to others.

Dashcam Dumbasses I have to assume you are a woman who has never owned a true AMG.

Aaaaand you made yourself look like more of a dumbass (didn't think it was possible). I'm a guy and yes, you're right I've never owned an AMG. As a matter of fact I have a plain old 2012 W204 C300 Sport but have had the pleasure of driving a W212 E63 AMG. I can understand and appreciate the differences of a V8 AMG but these sort of AMG lite cars (C43, E43 CLS53 etc...) don't seem far off at all. It just builds on what is an already solid platform and not everyone needs a TT V8. As a matter of fact the V6 variants might be the more manageable car many are looking for in terms of performance. Perhaps the V8 is just too brash and given the stout output of these TT V6 engines they might just serve as the "Goldilocks" of the MB lineup.
