Mercedes-Benz has taken the wraps off the new S65 AMG Coupe- a new member of the Mercedes-Benz family. The S-Class Coupe replaces the old CL-Class with a more dynamic premium sports coupe with attractive looks. The S65 AMG model gets a hefty V12 engine crafted by AMG. This time, due to environmental regulations and stuff, Mercedes have had to employ twin-turbos to the 6.0-liter engine. That’s good news, if you want more torque. The AMG V12 does deliver 738 lb-ft and has a total output rating of 621 horsepower.
