The three letters AMG symbolize the car's high performance, unique temperament and pure driving pleasure. Although affected by emissions, this tuning factory from Affalterbach, Germany, the hometown of extraordinary driving, has no choice but to give up its V8 glory, but it has not become lonely because of this, but has brought the most powerful 2.0 currently in service, code-named "M139" T engine. The reason why it is called active service is because the 2.0T engine of Mitsubishi Lancer? EVO? , is too far away from us, so we won’t discuss it too much here.
#?The most powerful 2.0T on earth deserves its title
This 2.0T squeezed to the extreme was first placed on the new Mercedes-Benz AMG-A45S model, with 310kW (421 horsepower), with a maximum torque of 500N·m. Compared with the previous engine, the output power has increased by 30kW (40hp), the torque has also increased by 25N·m, and the output per liter is as high as 155kW (211hp). It is matched with AMG’s new DCT-8G dual-clutch transmission and 4MATIC four-wheel drive system can accelerate from 100 kilometers to 100 kilometers in just 3.9 seconds.
In addition to the performance figures, the new engine's immediate response is also impressive. AMG engineers specially adjusted the torque curve, and the engine can provide a maximum torque of 500?N·m in the range of 5000-5250?rpm. This allows the vehicle to achieve power output similar to that of a naturally aspirated engine, and the throttle response is also better. quick. In addition, the M139 engine speed is as high as 7200 rpm, emphasizing the sporty characteristics of the engine.
#?AMG family characteristics are more obvious
The new Mercedes-?AMG?A45S?4MATIC is more high-profile than the old model. Even in a stationary state, it The appearance can also convey the purest driving pleasure. It uses AMG's exclusive radiator grille and 12 vertical louver-like strips, which are the main symbols of the AMG family's performance identity. At the same time, this design is also applied to a compact model for the first time. The headlights on both sides are tilted upward as a whole, and combined with the front air grille create a forward momentum. The lower part adopts a jet wing design, and the large air inlets on both sides not only optimize the airflow but also extend the visual width of the car body.
On the side of the car body, the AMG A45S 4MATIC gives people a stronger sense of muscle than before, with the waistline running directly from the front wheel arch to the fuel tank cover. AMG side skirts are used below, which visually lowers the height of the car and creates a posture of flying close to the ground. In terms of wheels, the basic model is equipped with 8.5-inch x 18-inch 10-spoke design wheels, while the S sports version is equipped with dual 5-spoke design wheels up to 19 inches. In terms of calipers, the red-painted 6-piston brake calipers and black AMG lettering highlight its extraordinary identity.
On the rear of the car, in addition to the common LED light source taillights and AMG logo, the S version also has an exaggerated rear spoiler and rear diffuser, as well as vertical "double fins" on both sides. diffuser. In addition, the double-sided four-outlet exhaust highlights its sporty performance.
#?Not just stupidly fast
As a performance steel cannon, blindly stupidly fast is not a long-term solution, because as the owner uses it, the speed of the vehicle itself will change. Gradually become immune. In other words, no matter how fast it accelerates to 100 kilometers in 3.9 seconds, it will be boring if you drive it for a long time. AMG knows this very well, so it has comprehensively upgraded the vehicle's control so that it can not only run in a straight line, but also take turns on the track. AMG's specially tuned 8-speed DCT? 8G dual-clutch transmission shifts cleanly and provides different shifting characteristics according to the drive mode selected by the driver.
4MATIC four-wheel drive and AMG torque control provide great assistance for intense driving. The new AMG? A45S? 4MATIC is equipped with the newly developed rear axle differential, consisting of two electronically controlled clutches , each connected to the rear axle driveshaft. In this way, drive power is not only completely evenly distributed between the front and rear wheels, but also selectively distributed between the left and right rear wheels. This means that drive torque can be effectively distributed to both rear wheels depending on the drive mode and road conditions. In addition, the car achieves excellent traction even in adverse road conditions and extreme cornering maneuvers.
#? Editor summary
The arrival of Mercedes-AMG A45S 4MATIC has undoubtedly refreshed our understanding of the 2.0T four-cylinder engine. The power it outputs is Many 3.0T models cannot compare with it. At present, we have not received any information about the price and launch time of the new car. In my opinion, its price is likely to be in the range of 550,000-600,000 yuan. But even so, it is still a cost-effective model, because buying the S version is basically one step, and you can save a lot of modification costs, which actually saves money.
