About the 2025 Mercedes-Benz AMG E-Class
6th-generation E-Class, first year for the AMG E 53 HYBRID
Mercedes positions the AMG E-Class as a performance luxury sedan that blends everyday E-Class comfort and digital technology with AMG acceleration and handling. Its key difference is a plug-in hybrid system that supports electric commuting yet produces 577 hp when the engine and motor work together. Standard AWD, adaptive damping, and rear-wheel steering support commuting, highway travel, and fast back-road driving without giving up four-door sedan usability.
The 2025 E 53 HYBRID is a performance sedan built to handle quiet electric trips, long drives, and responsive back-road driving. Its signature equipment includes fully variable AWD, an adaptive suspension, rear-wheel steering, DC fast charging, and a 14.4-inch touchscreen.
