The 2027 Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S Coupe is the definitive high-performance SUV coupe — a car that has defined this segment since the original GLE 63 AMG Coupe was introduced more than a decade ago, and one that continues to set the standard for every competitor that has followed. Sharing the new AMG M177 EVO 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 with flat-plane crankshaft revealed simultaneously with the GLS 63, the GLE 63 S Coupe produces the same 603 horsepower and 627 lb-ft of torque, supplemented by 23 hp and 151 lb-ft from a 48-volt mild-hybrid system — and in the lighter, lower Coupe body, it uses those numbers to reach 60 mph in 3.6 seconds. Pricing is expected from approximately $135,000, with U.S. arrival in early 2027.
The GLE 63 S Coupe is not the GLS 63 with a sloped roof. Where the GLS emphasizes three-row luxury, the GLE 63 S Coupe is a driver's machine first: lower, stiffer, and with a chassis tuning that prioritizes cornering capability and driver feedback over maximum passenger comfort. AMG RIDE CONTROL+ suspension with AMG-specific elastokinematics and adaptive damping, Porsche-rivaling lateral dynamics, and 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive with a rear-biased torque split give the GLE 63 S Coupe a genuine performance character that its segment competitors can rarely match. The Performance exhaust with valve control provides a V8 soundtrack adjustable from refined to exhilarating depending on drive mode.
The 2027 GLE 63 S Coupe inherits the new GLE's comprehensive interior update — MBUX Superscreen with three 12.3-inch displays, MB.OS, AI voice control — alongside AMG-specific sport seats with contrast stitching, a flat-bottom AMG steering wheel, and the AMG Performance exhaust's new sound design. The redesigned exterior adds the Panamericana-style AMG grille, enlarged cooling intakes, AMG-specific LED light signatures front and rear, and the model's twin rectangular Performance exhaust tips. Available up to 22-inch AMG multi-spoke wheels fill the Coupe's wide arches with authority. This is a car that announces itself from a distance — and then delivers on that announcement.

Features of the 2027 Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S Coupe
New M177 EVO V8 with Flat-Plane Crankshaft
The 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 with flat-plane crankshaft and 48-volt mild hybrid produces 603 hp and 627 lb-ft of torque. The flat-plane crank gives the engine a sharper throttle response, a more willing rev character, and an acoustic profile that is distinctly different — and more exciting — than the outgoing cross-plane unit.
3.6-Second 0–60 in a Coupe SUV
The GLE 63 S Coupe is 0.3 seconds quicker to 60 mph than the GLS 63 — a meaningful advantage that reflects the Coupe's lower weight and more aggressive chassis calibration, not merely a different body style.
AMG RIDE CONTROL+ with Driver-Focused Calibration
AMG-specific elastokinematics, infinitely variable adaptive damping, and a chassis calibration prioritizing lateral dynamics and driver feedback over maximum passenger comfort distinguish the GLE 63 S Coupe's suspension from the GLS 63's more comfort-oriented tune.
4MATIC+ with Rear-Biased Torque Split
The AMG 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive system is calibrated with a rear-biased torque distribution, providing genuine rear-drive character in Sport and Sport Plus modes while retaining the all-weather traction assurance of a full AWD system.
MBUX Superscreen and AMG Sport Interior
The full-width MBUX Superscreen with MB.OS, AMG sport seats with contrast stitching, AMG flat-bottom steering wheel, and AMG Performance exhaust with valve-controlled sound combine the latest Mercedes-Benz technology with the GLE 63's focused performance identity.
Redesigned AMG Exterior with Panamericana Grille
The new front end with Panamericana vertical-slat grille, enlarged AMG air intakes, AMG-specific LED light signatures, and twin rectangular Performance exhaust tips give the 2027 GLE 63 S Coupe a more aggressive, more purposeful presence than any previous version.
