Any explainations guys... coz I'm puzzled..?? |
I always known the CLS was heavier than the E-class, by quite a bit. The E63 AMG wagon weighs a claimed 1955kg and the CLS63 weighs a claimed 1905kg. Now obviously that's a 50kg difference, the E63 AMG should be much faster than both seeing as it weighs a claimed 1840kg. That's a weigh explaination, other than that, to be honest Car & Driver's acceleration tests can vary much, sometimes they are terrible, sometimes amazing.
