The letters “AMG” stand for Aufrecht, Melcher and Großaspach. Hans thought that of course the measurements should be without the fan. Although these are considered the most well known in-house tuning divisions, Mercedes-AMG has a considerably different philosophy than BMW M. Compared to BMW M, Mercedes-AMG is "less narrow in its sporting focus, yet still combining sledgehammer performance with relaxed handling, cultured comfort, and practicality". This naturally aspirated V8 will also be used to replace most of the "55" models. AMG developed its own V8 engine (dubbed M156 in development) for the DTM series. They formed their own racing engine company. The update also improved fuel economy and reduced carbon emissions by 3.5% over the outgoing model.[25][26]. Unlike the M156 naturally aspirated 6.2 L V8, which was developed entirely within AMG, the M157 is based upon the M278 used in the regular Mercedes-Benz S-Class and CL-Class. This exciting trend caught the attention of everyone in the racing world and sparked the  young Hans’ enthusiasm as well.

For example, newer-model AMG V8s such as the C 63 actually have 4.0L V8s. [2], AMG models typically have more aggressive looks, a higher level of performance, better handling, better stability and more extensive use of carbon fibre than their regular Mercedes-Benz counterparts. The reason being they just couldn’t see much future for small series sedans with racing stripes. An S 63 AMG accelerates faster and handles better than an S 65 AMG (due to 4-wheel drive and decreased weight), and an SL 63 AMG accelerates faster than an SL 65 AMG due to decreased torque, lower weight, and better balance by use of the V8.

The Mercedes-Benz CLS 63 AMG S has been tested to accelerate to 60 mph in just 3.2 seconds, with a quarter mile time of 11.6 seconds. AMG was originally an independent engineering firm specializing in performance improvements for Mercedes-Benz vehicles.

On 16 January 2006, Mercedes-AMG Chairman Volker Mornhinweg told AutoWeek that the company would use turbocharging for higher output rather than supercharging.

For Aufrecht, this was not going to be the end, but the beginning.

AMG and Mercedes worked together on Mercedes-Benz W201 cars for the 1988 Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft (DTM, German Touring Car Championship). In 2000, an extensively modified one-off Mercedes-Benz AMG CLK 55 was built by the AMG Factory as a purpose built race car to compete in the 2001 Targa Tasmania 7 day road race. As part of the official Mercedes product line, the AMG models are sold side-by-side with regular production models, unlike those offered by other Mercedes tuning firms such as Brabus. However, current Mercedes-AMG chairman Volker Mornhinweg has urged the division to return to its roots of building sports cars.[14]. Compared to the "55" supercharged 5.4 L V8 engine—which was restricted to the Speedshift 5G-Tronic five-speed automatic transmission, as it had a torque capacity of 796 lb⋅ft (1,079 N⋅m)—the reduced torque of the "63" M156 6.2L V8 means it can be mated with the more efficient 7G-Tronic, which can withstand a limit of 542 lb⋅ft (735 N⋅m). Once he finished University, he enrolled in the Mercedes-Benz company as a dynamometer engineer in the racing department. This naturally aspirated V8 will also be used to replace most of the "55" models. The C 32 AMG can do 0–60 mph in 5.2sec 0–100 in 12.6 with a 1/4 mile of 13.6 at 106 mph (C&D comparison test May 2003)[48][49]. It is the largest displacement naturally aspirated engine provided by AMG and is now exclusively used by Pagani. Further expansion led to the opening of a third plant in 1990 and an increase in the workforce to 400 employees. These are powered by a naturally aspirated 6.3L V12 producing 326 kW (443 PS; 437 hp). Although there were some AMG models in the 1980s with manual transmissions, almost all recent models have used automatics (5G-Tronic and later 7G-Tronic with Speedshift), in contrast to BMW M, which used manual and recently automatic transmissions (the current type being a dual clutch transmission). [24], Coinciding with the facelift of the CL-Class for the 2011 model year, the 2011 CL 65 AMG had an enhanced engine.
