奔驰在北美车展发布了2019款CLS混动车想，该车搭载一台3.0升直列六缸涡轮增压引擎和“EQBoost”系统，利用一台小型电机提供额外动力，为其提供动力的是48伏电源。将于今年晚些时候上市的CLS轿车，E级轿跑车和E级敞篷车以及AMG53车型都搭载了相同的3.0升直列六缸引擎，在涡轮增压器的加持下进一步提升功率。搭载该引擎的CLS450功率为362马力，扭矩369磅-英尺（约合500牛米），电机额外提供21马力和184磅-英尺（约合250牛米）。但CLS53功率提升至429马力，扭矩384磅-英尺（约合520牛米），电机的功率和扭矩没有变化。奔驰表示，CLS53 0-96公里/小时加速时间为4.4秒。至于E级的AMGE53功率超过E400的329马力和354磅-英尺（约合480牛米），甚至超过了AMGE43的396马力。奔驰也是首次为E级轿跑车和敞篷车全部提供AMG版本。AMG53系列车型全部搭配九速双离合器变速器和奔驰的4Matic+全驱系统，为提升燃油经济性也可完全采用后驱模式（没有漂移模式）。其中AMGCLS53还提供了多个取自S级的驾驶员辅助技术，包括主动制动辅助，主动转向辅助，主动限速辅助，自适应巡航控制等等。所有AMG53车型都配备空气悬挂，利用动态选择驾驶模式，可提供舒适、运动和运动+模式设置。AMG53车型采用了重新设计的前保险杠，双条格栅和银色镀铬装饰，车尾双圆形排气尾管。
Hot Hybrids: Mercedes Launches Electrified AMG 53 Range
One of the highlights of the 2019 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class is its new mild hybrid powertrain. The 3.0-liter turbocharged straight-six engine comes with an "EQ Boost" setup, which uses a small electric motor to provide additional thrust, and to run the car's 48-volt electrical system.
Launching later this year on the CLS-Class sedan, E-Class coupe, and E-Class convertible, the AMG 53 cars use this same 3.0-liter inline-six engine, with greater turbo boost to increase overall output. The standard CLS450 produces 362 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque with this engine, plus an additional 21 hp and 184 lb-ft from the electric motor. But in the CLS53, output numbers are increased to 429 hp and 384 lb-ft, though the electric motor's ratings are unchanged. Mercedes says the CLS53 will sprint to 60 miles per hour in just 4.4 seconds.
As for the E-Class models, the AMG E53 represents a healthy increase in power over the E400's 329 hp and 354 lb-ft of torque. Hell, it even outshines the 396-hp AMG E43 sedan. It's also the first time Mercedes is offering a full AMG version of the E-Class Coupe and Cabriolet.
The AMG 53 models all use a nine-speed dual-clutch transmission and send power to the ground via Mercedes' 4Matic+ all-wheel-drive system, which can run in full rear-drive mode for better efficiency (sorry, no Drift Mode here). AMG CLS53 models also get a number of driver assistance technologies carried down from the flagship S-Class, including Active Braking Assist, Active Steering Assist, Active Speed Limit Assist, adaptive cruise control, and many others. All AMG 53 cars get an air suspension, with Comfort, Sport, and Sport+ settings built into the cars' Dynamic Select drive modes.
AMG 53 models get redesigned front bumpers, and the twin-blade radiator is finished in silver chrome, something Mercedes says is normally reserved for V8 AMG models. Dual round tailpipes out back are a new design cue, as well.
