Engine and Transmission

The 2019 Mercedes-AMG® C 43 Coupe is powered by an AMG®-enhanced 3.0L V6 biturbo engine that combines a high-power output and reduced fuel consumption. The high-power output occurs because of separate, large turbochargers, which are installed close to the engine and are incredibly responsive. The AMG® engine is easily identifiable with its cover featuring red aluminum inserts and AMG® lettering.

The 3.0L V6 is mated to an AMG® SPEEDSHIFT TCT 9-speed sport transmission, specifically tuned by Mercedes-AMG developers to deliver dynamic, responsive performance. The transmission’s model-specific software enables the transmission to achieve extremely short shift times. The transmission features several driving modes that change key driving parameters to customize the feel of the drive.
