The first Kugel Werks car: a Mercedes-Benz 600 (W100) whose drivetrain, chassis and cabin come from a 2020 Mercedes-AMG E 63 S. The 4.0 litre twin-turbo V8 drives all four wheels through a nine-speed automatic. The body gains widened fenders and carbon aero parts, a blackened star on the hood and three-piece 19 inch wheels.

The idea
The Kugel 600 puts the shape of the Mercedes-Benz 600 (W100) on the chassis and cabin of a 2020 Mercedes-AMG E 63 S. The classic body stays the visual centre of the car, and everything underneath and inside comes from a modern AMG sedan.
Powertrain
Power comes from the E 63 S: a 4.0 litre twin-turbo V8, a nine-speed automatic and 4MATIC all-wheel drive, the same package that sits in the donor sedan.
Stance and details
The fenders are widened to cover the modern track, carbon aero parts are added, and the star on the hood is blacked out. The car stands on three-piece 19 inch wheels.
