Impressive from 2.0 liters:
Mercedes-AMG S-version M139 Officially Most Powerful Production 4 Cylinder

I wonder if that would fit in a Fiat 500.

They forgot the part where the guerrilla comes out and tightens the drain plug and filter.
Good Lord!!!! I'd like to have the money for all engine booths, torque tools, robots etc. Super clean, but yet, no hair nets or coveralls. How much total oil you think they used? 1oz total? No dyno start??? Ain't your Mom's 350 Cheby..........Engine porn at it's best!!!

Wonder how long it will live if a guy uses that 416 a lot? That's highly stressed no matter who built it.
Thank you for very cool video, 2015_PSD. 416 hoss out of 2.0L is the state of the art in 2019. Who'd of thunk it. My main take away was the assembly process. That is pure ad smoke calling that a hand made engine. The human tool holder could be replaced by a couple of the many robotic arms I saw. I'm guessing from what i saw that the average 200 HP econo box engine of today is assembled by a line of robots with even less human participation than a signed AMG ?

I remember back in the 80's when Italy had a 2.0L cap on engines before a major tax would kick in how they were squeezing around 200 h.p. out of them. A lot has changed.
Sounds like a job for 10w60 Redline Oil lol. My Civic Type R has a new nemesis.

The old AMG 2.0 was enough to crush your civic, with the cla/GLA45amgs 0-60 of 3.8s and all...

LOL: There's basically no sound in the video and had me wondering what was wrong with my computer.
Anyhow, I'll take everyone's word for it that that produces that much power. Very impressive. I was shocked to see a synthetic internal timing drive belt at 4:55. I wonder if that means a required service down the road.
As for all that factory automation... Mixed feelings. The fixturing costs must be astronomical!!! Yes, I understand that humans should not be exploited in the workplace as they are in all too many factories but... This seems overboard to me.
Interesting how only 1 drop of assembly lube per crank bearing was used.

If only Hyundai vacuumed out the main bearing saddles and threads like this assembler did.

It was easy to see why AMG engines cost so much--the cost of the assembly equipment has to be staggering and Germany has very well protected wages. Fully agree that most engines today likely have almost no human intervention during the assembly process.
416 HP from 2000cc and I thought 362 HP from 3000cc was impressive 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Still I love my little GLC43; Sport+ is fun all day long!

I would still take an LS9 swap in a car like that..

Hopefully that is easier to change than on a Dodge Dart

I am going to assume that full gallery pressurization occurs before initial start up.

LOL: With only 1 drop of assembly oil, I should hope full gallery pressurization occurs before initial start up. I'm sure it's not a problem as they no-doubt have a handle on what they're doing. The video was highlighting their advanced state of affairs; that space-age oil dispenser among the myriad things that stood out.

I concur.

I do not see these cars lasting long outside of the warranty period. We had an 04 E55 a few weeks ago with 270k, I doubt these will make half that. Id also love to see some reports with the 5/20.
Hopefully engines last 150k miles without serious issues like the vast majority of cars.
Looks incredible.
The upside here not some tuner guessing and no engineering to produce high power levels.
