Mercedes-AMG has swapped six cylinders for four in the all-new C43, utilising a clever electric turbo for a 402bhp output -
The turbocharger itself is a fascinating piece of technology, due to the 40mm-thick electric motor mounted within the turbo housing, sandwiched between the compressor wheel on the intake side and the turbine wheel on the exhaust side. This small electric motor is able to spin up the turbo instantaneously when the throttle is applied, dramatically reducing turbo lag by generating boost until the exhaust gases take over.
To optimise cooling outside the turbocharger, the C43 runs separate water-cooling systems for the block and cylinder heads to keep them at optimal operating temperatures, but the engine doesn’t go as far as the A45 S in also calling on the car’s air conditioning system. Power is sent through AMG’s 9G MCT transmission that utilises a wet clutch on take-off, to a rear-biased all-wheel drive system that sends 69 per cent of drive to the rear wheels and 31 per cent to the front.
