The 2023 Mercedes-AMG C63 S E Performance plug-in hybrid model will feature Tenneco’s Monroe Intelligent Suspension CVSA2 electronic dampers. CVSA2 technology continuously adjusts damping characteristics based on data points including steering wheel angle, vehicle speed, acceleration, and body displacement. The same Monroe Intelligent Suspension technology is available in various Mercedes-AMG SL models, as well as the G-Class SUV.

The Mercedes-AMG C63 S E Performance is equipped with four CVSA2 adaptive dampers, each fitted with two externally mounted electro-hydraulic valves that independently control rebound and compression based on inputs from the system’s control software. The broad adjustment range of the CVSA2 adaptive dampers is well suited to a comparatively heavy plug-in hybrid performance car. The technology also integrates with the C63 S E Performance’s AMG Dynamic Select system, which enables the driver to choose from eight operating modes: Electric, Comfort, Sport, Sport+, Race, Battery, Hold, and Slippery.

“Monroe Intelligent Suspension CVSA2 technology enables drivers to fully explore the capabilities of a world-class powertrain while enjoying the control, confidence and comfort of a truly superior ride,” says Romain Nollet, group vice president and general manager of Monroe Ride Solutions at Tenneco. “We are very proud to drive what’s next in suspension technology in partnership with each of our global OEM customers.”

The new Mercedes-AMG C63 S E Performance is powered by a 2.0-litre inline four-cylinder engine paired with a Formula 1-inspired, electrically spooled turbocharger as well as a rear-mounted electric motor. Together this combination produces up to 671hp and 752 lb ft of torque, accelerates from zero to 60mph (96.5km/h) in 3.3 seconds and delivers a top speed of 174mph (280km/h).

The CVSA2 systems for the car were developed in Tenneco’s Monroe Ride Solutions facilities in Gliwice, Poland and Sint-Truiden, Belgium. The adaptive dampers will be manufactured in Gliwice.
