Under the bonnet, the V8 bi-turbo unit gets few modifications in order to develop 649 horsepower and 800 Nm of torque over the standard output of 557 horses.

The additional power enables the CK63 RS to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 4,1 seconds. A new, high-performance adjustable suspension is available as well, the new module being able to reduce the ground clearance by 30 mm.
