New details have emerged recently about the production-ready Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe which has already been confirmed for a 2014 launch.
Showcased as a concept in September last year at IAA in Frankfurt, the S-Class Coupe will reportedly come in production guise at this year’s Geneva Motor Show that will be held in March where it will be exhibited also in the S65 AMG guise. In terms of dimensions, the CL-Class replacement will be about 5.05 meters long, 1.96 meters wide and 1.44 meters tall. It will look pretty much like the concept, with the exception of the headlights and exterior mirrors which will be modified for the production model.
Power will come from the same engines found inside the regular S-Class mated to a 7G TRONIC PLUS transmission and later on we may get to see the newly developed 9G-TRONIC nine-speed automatic gearbox. There will also be an S63 AMG version with 4MATIC all-wheel drive system while the S65 AMG will be RWD only. The same report indicates the availability of S500 and S500 4MATIC versions and the absence of diesel engines.
