1. CLK is NOT a C-Class but is related to C class. 2. CLK is more expensive than a C class. 3. Kompressor is German for Compressor (supercharger). 4. Here's a rough model hierarchy for Benz excluding SUVs and SLs. A Class B-Class C-Class CLK-Class E-Class S-Class 5. Within each class, the number at the end of the model designation tells you the engine size or relative power (more power = more money). For example, CLK450 is more powerful and expensive than CLK350 when new. 6. AMG will usually cost more than the most expensive “regular” model within each class. AMG will probably cost about ~$10k-$50k more when new than the most expensive regular Benz, which in this case will be the CLK450. For example, in 2003 MB had the following different versions of CLK: 2.0L 134 horsepower (100 kW)I4 2.0L Kompressor 189 horsepower (141 kW)I4 2.3L Kompressor 220 horsepower (160 kW)I4 3.2L 215 horsepower (160 kW) V6 4.3L 300 horsepower (220 kW) V8 5.4L 367 hp V8 Guess which one was the AMG version (most expensive)? The 5.4L 367 HP V8 = CLK 55 AMG. Which one should you buy in Nigeria? The AMG version will consume the most fuel and probably require more than average maintenance. 4 Likes |

AMG (Aufrecht Melcher Großaspach) is the name given to the sports (or performance) version of any benz range. CLK is actually a German phrase. its stands for Coupe(Two Door) Leicht(Light) Kurtz/Kompact(short/compact). SLK also means the same as above. Only replace Coupe with Sportlich (meaning sporty) Hope these enlightens you. 5 Likes |

Some Mercedes engines are turbocharged or supercharged. When it is supercharged, its called 'KOMPRESSOR'. AMG (Aufrecht Melcher Großaspach) is the tuning section of the Mercedes company. When a car is tuned to AMG-specification it gets a 'AMG' badge. 4MATIC is Mercedes' technology of full-time all wheel drive. OR AMG is the high performance tuner of Mercedes Benz cars 4 matic is full time automatic four wheel drive Kompressor is a supercharger added to the engine. 3 Likes |
