The 2018 Mercedes-Benz Power Roundup

A closer look at 3 of the most powerful models from Mercedes-Benz

After one hundred years of automotive engineering evolution, the modern driver deserves power. Mercedes-Benz of Owings Mills understands, so this month, we’re honoring the top three most powerful models in the Mercedes-Benz lineup. And the winners are… (Please imagine a drumroll in your head.)

Most Horsepower

The 2018 Mercedes-Benz AMG® GT R Coupe (pictured above) is a masterpiece of automotive engineering. This precision machine uses a handcrafted 4.0-liter AMG® V8 biturbo engine to produce an astonishing 577 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque. Speed enthusiasts may tear up at the site of this masterpiece of engineering going 0 to 60 in 3.5 seconds, which is less time than it took you to read this sentence.

Most Towing Capacity

Thanks to the GLS SUV's standard 362-hp 3.0-liter V6 biturbo engine, (which produces up to 369 lb-ft of torque), this three-row SUV cruises over mountains as easily as it does down the interstate. Plus, not only can you seat seven passengers comfortably on the inside, but you can also tow up to 7,500 lbs, when properly equipped. That’s a boat or a couple of jet skis on a trailer, (AKA "an incredibly fun way to spend a weekend").

Most Powerful Hybrid

The 2018 C 350e Plug-in Hybrid Sedan’s combination of 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine and 60kW electric motor is a technological achievement. This modern marvel puts out an impressive combined 275 hp, and it accelerates from 0 to 60 in 5.8 seconds. It's not just fast, either—it gets an amazing 61 MPGe, too.*


These are just the top three models on our list, and there are many more feats of strength from Mercedes-Benz we would love to tell you about. So come see us at Mercedes-Benz of Owings Mills or contact us today to learn more about the powerful options we have in our showroom.
