Mercedes Takes The Wraps Off Limited Edition AMG PureSpeed
Mercedes has taken the covers off a limited edition model that will launch its new Mythos series, and which will be limited to just 250 cars.
Every Mercedes-AMG starts life as a Mercedes-Benz, from the A-Class to the flagship S-Class, before AMG's engineers in Affalterbach rework it with hand-built engines, sport-tuned suspension and faster-shifting transmissions. You'll spot the difference before you even get in: the vertical-bar Panamericana grille, wider wheel arches and larger air intakes set every AMG apart from the standard Mercedes-Benz it's built on. Whether you want SUV practicality in the GLC or GLE, or outright performance in the AMG GT or SL, there's a Mercedes-AMG built around how you actually drive.
Mercedes-AMG is the performance division of Mercedes-Benz, born in Affalterbach in 1967 out of a passion for motorsport. Every AMG starts as a Mercedes-Benz before AMG's engineers rework it with more powerful engines, sport-tuned suspension, faster-shifting transmissions and sharper styling. Many of its V8 engines are still built by hand under the "One Man, One Engine" principle, each carrying the signature of the person who assembled it. That same expertise has produced halo cars like the Formula 1-engined AMG ONE, and it runs through every model in the range.
That performance runs across the Mercedes-Benz line-up, from the compact A-Class to SUVs like the GLC and GLE, in petrol, performance plug-in hybrid and fully electric forms. At Vertu, our colleagues can talk you through the full new Mercedes-AMG range and help you find the right performance car for how you drive.
The range applies AMG performance across hatchbacks, saloons and SUVs, so the right choice comes down to the body style and level of performance you want. Here is how the line-up breaks down. Specifications and availability vary by model, so confirm the current details with your local Vertu Mercedes-Benz retailer.
This is where AMG ownership often begins. The compact A-Class delivers hot hatch thrills, while the C-Class and E-Class bring AMG performance to the executive saloon and estate class, now including powerful E Performance plug-in hybrid versions. These models pair serious pace with everyday usability, making them a strong choice for drivers who want one car that can commute during the week and entertain at the weekend.
AMG applies the same treatment to Mercedes-Benz's SUVs, so you do not have to trade space or a higher driving position for performance. The GLC and GLE are offered in 43 and range-topping 63 forms, including E Performance plug-in hybrids, while the seven-seat GLS 63 and the iconic G 63 sit at the top. This group suits families and drivers who want genuine performance alongside practicality and all-weather ability.
AMG is bringing its performance thinking to electric power, with high-output electric models that deliver instant torque and zero tailpipe emissions whilst driving. As the electric AMG line-up grows, it sits alongside the petrol and plug-in hybrid range rather than replacing it. You can browse the current electric Mercedes-AMG range to see what is available today.
AMG models are identified by a number and sometimes extra lettering. As a general guide, 43 and 53 models offer strong performance with six-cylinder or electrified power, while 63 sits at the top with the most powerful engines. An S denotes a higher state of tune, E Performance signals AMG's Formula 1-derived plug-in hybrid technology, and Pro marks the most track-focused versions. Our colleagues can explain exactly what each badge means on your chosen model.
Inside, every AMG builds on the Mercedes-Benz cabin with motorsport-inspired touches, from AMG Performance seats and a flat-bottomed steering wheel to AMG-specific displays within the MBUX infotainment system. Depending on the model, you will find the AMG steering-wheel buttons for quickly switching drive settings, along with the same widescreen displays, "Hey Mercedes" voice control and smartphone integration found across the Mercedes-Benz range.
Under the skin, AMG-specific engineering is what sets these cars apart. AMG Dynamic Select drive modes, including a Race setting on many models, adjust the engine, gearbox and suspension, while features such as AMG Performance 4Matic+ all-wheel drive, AMG Ride Control suspension, rear-axle steering and AMG Track Pace lap timing bring track technology to the road. Exact equipment varies by model and trim, so confirm the specification for your chosen car with your local retailer.

It pairs a combustion engine with an electric motor and battery to deliver more power and instant response, while still allowing short journeys on electric power alone with zero tailpipe emissions in EV mode. It is offered on models such as the C 63, GLC 63 and GLE 63.

Mercedes-AMG is the in-house performance division of Mercedes-Benz, based in Affalterbach. Every AMG begins as a Mercedes-Benz before AMG's engineers rework it with more powerful engines, sport-tuned suspension, upgraded brakes and distinctive styling. In short, every AMG is a Mercedes-Benz, but with a significant step up in performance, engineering and driver focus.
Mercedes-AMG is based in Affalterbach, Germany, where many of its engines are assembled. Its hand-built V8 engines follow the "One Man, One Engine" principle, meaning a single master technician builds each engine from start to finish and signs it on completion. This craftsmanship is a key part of what makes an AMG distinct from a standard Mercedes-Benz.
AMG offers performance versions of much of the Mercedes-Benz SUV range, including the GLC, GLE and GLE Coupe, the seven-seat GLS and the iconic G-Class. These are available in 43 and range-topping 63 forms, with E Performance plug-in hybrid options on some models, so you can combine genuine performance with space, all-weather capability and a commanding driving position.
Every new Mercedes-AMG comes with a three-year manufacturer warranty with no mileage limit, counted from the date of first registration. Plug-in hybrid and electric AMG models add separate high-voltage battery cover of up to 8 years or 100,000 miles. Speak to your local Vertu Mercedes-Benz retailer for full warranty terms on your chosen model and trim.
