Is the AMG E53 Coupe an AMG Too Many? | TEST DRIVE

The AMG line-up never ceases to amaze with a vast range of new models appearing including the new 53 designation engines featuring in many models, including the E Class Coupe. The AMG E53 Coupe sits beneath the 63 and 63S variant, on the platform shared with the CLS and AMG GT 4-door, but how does it all stack up?

With a 3.0l turbo inline-6 with EQ Boost, it offers 435hp and 520nm before the additional 22hp and 250nm that come from the mild hybrid system. The Coupe is one of 4 bodystyles available on the E Class platform; Saloon, Estate, Coupe and Convertible, with the new CLS and AMG GT 4-door based on the same chassis. Likewise the 53 engine is more potent than the biturbo V6 found in the '43' and less so than the biturbo V8 found in the '63' and '63S' models. Ultimately though, is the AMG badge now being used on too many different cars, does this model deserve to wear it?

Join me for a test drive and full look at the new car in Texas, starting with an introduction before a drive on both an open area as well as the highways to see what it's all about before wrapping up with a detailed tour of the interior.

Thanks for watching, Tim
