Mercedes-AMG will add 10 new models to its range before the end of the year. Speaking to Automotive News, Mercedes-AMG chairman Tobias Moers said the decision follows the performance division’s booming sales performance in 2015 — 68,875 vehicles were sold worldwide, marking a 40% improvement against the year before.
“We are going to expand our portfolio to 48 different models by the end of the year,” Moers said. Currently, the AMG brand boasts a total of 38 models in its line-up, ranging from the compact AMG A 45 to the mighty AMG S 65. Recently, the brand also adopted a new set of lower range AMG “43” vehicles, adding to its tally.
In a bid to get even more of its AMG models on the road, Moers said that he is urging more dealerships across the globe to open dedicated showroom areas for AMG cars — such as the one at the PJ Autohaus by Cycle & Carriage Bintang. The company is also eager to roll out stand-alone AMG centres.
“Stand-alone AMG showrooms are getting feasible worldwide. We are going to open one up in Japan, and we’re having a discussion in Australia about that (also),” he revealed.

The best or nothing
AMG 43 is low range? I would have bought the 45 were considered the low range since it uses a 2000cc engine while the 43 has 3000cc engines in it. Anyhow good to see them in increasing the AMG brand presence since they want to cater to younger customers. Hopefully BMW will follow suit with M340i, M540i, etc and develop smaller M330i models.
I would prefer AMG to tweak the 1.6L turbo to be higher power output.
