S63 has the 7-G transmission. S65 has the old 5 speed transmission. According to most reports the AMG V-12 with over 700 foot pound is too much for the newer 7-G. |

S65 tranny is more beefy
The unrivalled 1000 Nm torque requires a systematically reinforced powertrain on the Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG. In the automatic transmission this includes newly developed clutch plates with a high-quality metallic coating and the modified shift and torque converter logic. Redesigned drive shafts, larger hub carriers as well as strengthened steel spring links supplement these measures.
