The recently announced Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG is one powerful luxury sedan, packing 577 horsepower. But that’s not the end of the S-Class line, as Mercedes will be debuting its S65 AMG and S600 models in the near future.

First on the list will be the S65 AMG, expected to make its debut at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show later this year in November. The current top-of-the-line S65 AMG features 621 horsepower and weighs in at around 5,000 pounds. The new S65 AMG will undoubtedly get a bump in its power output, as well as shed a few hundred pounds from its weight.
