Ever since Mercedes-AMG unveiled the GT 63 S E Performance at the end of August last year, we knew the plug-in hybrid liftback was going to be extremely expensive. That said, we are still in a bit of a shock to discover the price tag the boys and girls from Affalterbach have slapped onto their most powerful production car ever, outside of the One hypercar. Math starts at an eye-watering €196,897, referred to as only a "base price" in Germany.
Aside from the usual crop of options, the car with a long name can also be had in a more expensive Edition version for an additional €21,777. Featured here, the five-door PHEV with supercar performance costs no less than €218,674 at home in Deutschland. To put that sum into perspective, the Mercedes-Maybach S680 (yes, the one with the V12) is only about €5,800 more expensive in Germany.
