Mercedes-Benz performance and restoration developments

Overview

Mercedes-Benz is engaging in both modern high-performance production and classic vehicle restoration. Recent developments include the introduction of the Mercedes-AMG CLE 646 Spezialanfertigung, a limited-run model with 30 units featuring a carbon fiber build designed to reduce weight by 170 kg. In the classic segment, Helderburg has begun accepting commissions to modernize the Mercedes-Benz 280 SL Pagoda using authentic chassis and upgraded performance components.

Specialists are also focusing on restomod projects for heritage models. HWA is developing a contemporary version of the AMG Hammer based on the W124 silhouette, following their work on the 190E Evo II. Additionally, Prior Design has introduced aesthetic modifications for the Mercedes-AMG C 63 Cabrio through the use of widebody kits.
