Mercedes-Benz uses several tools, such as a dial gauge and a hydraulic torque wrench, to ensure that all engine components are securely placed. It also uses a computer-aided design (CAD) to create detailed models of engine components, which is crucial to achieving an accurate fitment.
The engine is then subjected to rigorous testing, including a dynamometric evaluation to measure its power and torque output.
The plant isn’t only responsible for engines found in AMG models, but also other brands. Every Pagani, for example, features an AMG-sourced V12, while Aston Martin makes use of V8 and inline-six motors from AMG, too. Even Lotus has employed the use of an AMG four-cylinder in the Emira sports car.
