I hope not because he didn't even say that. And it's no surprise he didn't say that since Mercedes didn't either. And I would bet money they never will, too.
Huh? The motor I posted will be utilized by the next C63 (W205) and the AMG GT.

It's the 4.0L biturbo that has been rumored for a long while now. I don't understand what is surprising?

And the article confirmed that as well:

"And those applications will be a large range. Initially, we'll see the M178 in the Mercedes-AMG GT and the next C-Class AMG."
