Command and Response: The High-Tech Might of the 2025 AMG® GLE 63 S 4Matic+ SUV

AMG® GLE 63 S 4Matic+ SUV Powertrain 

Luxury SUVs are expected to be powerful, responsive, and refined. The 2025 Mercedes-AMG® GLE 63 S 4Matic+ SUV exceeds those expectations with a high-tech powertrain built for serious performance and adaptive versatility. Available now at Mercedes-Benz of Scottsdale, this vehicle channels decades of engineering into an all-wheel-drive system that can think, adapt, and respond to its driver and terrain in milliseconds. 

A Powertrain That Rewrites Expectations 

The AMG® GLE 63 S 4Matic+ SUV powertrain begins with a handcrafted AMG 4.0-liter V8 biturbo engine that delivers a staggering 603 horsepower and 627 lb-ft of torque. Designed with a “hot inside V” turbo layout, this configuration not only reduces turbo lag but also maximizes packaging efficiency and response. Paired with a Hybrid Integrated Starter-Generator, it adds 21 more horsepower and 184 lb-ft of electric torque precisely when needed—during acceleration or gear transitions. 

This hybrid assist system also powers a 48-volt electrical system that supports a range of functions, from energy recuperation to advanced suspension systems. Moreover, AMG Cylinder Management allows the V8 to deactivate four cylinders during light loads, helping conserve fuel without compromising power delivery when it’s called for. 

Advanced Systems That Think on Their Feet 

Beyond pure output, the AMG® GLE 63 S 4Matic+ SUV performance is enhanced by an array of adaptive systems engineered for both precision and comfort: 

• AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive continuously calculates torque distribution, even sending 100% of torque to the rear wheels when needed. 

• Dynamic engine mounts filled with magnetorheological fluid adjust in real time to optimize stiffness or comfort depending on driving behavior. 

• AMG electronic limited-slip rear differential adapts its locking behavior mid-corner to allow for higher-speed exits and greater traction. 

• AMG SPEEDSHIFT TCT 9-speed transmission uses tightly spaced gears for quick, responsive shifts and increased fuel efficiency. 

All of these systems function in harmony, controlled by a matrix of sensors measuring longitudinal and lateral G-forces, throttle input, terrain feedback, and more. Drivers can tailor their experience through AMG DYNAMIC SELECT drive modes, whether for relaxed highway cruising or track-ready sharpness.
