FORGET three, Mercedes-AMG thinks four is the magic number for its new C 43 sports saloon. That’s because, unlike its predecessor, this car does not use a V6 engine. Instead, the performance arm of the German firm has opted for a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder mild-hybrid unit tuned to produce 402bhp and 500Nm of torque – so there’s a jump in power over its predecessor too.
