New Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupé

Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupé

The Mercedes‑AMG GT 4‑Door Coupé redefines performance: With extreme power, enormous continuous performance, highly precise driving dynamics, and a thrilling AMG intensive driving experience, the four-door sports car catapults performance and driving pleasure to a new level. The 4‑Door Coupé is based on the high-performance AMG.EA architecture and consequently underlines Affalterbach’s pioneering spirit with numerous world firsts. Central to this is a newly developed drive concept, strictly designed for high performance, which is being used for the first time in a series-production EV. It utilises a new, highly innovative electric motor technology, so-called axial flux motors, combined with a high-performance battery. The result is a drive unit that not only impressively delivers peak power but can also call upon it repeatedly and continuously, thereby shifting the benchmark in the high-performance segment. Mercedes‑AMG demonstrated the capability of this technology last year with the spectacular record drive of the CONCEPT AMG GT XX in Nardò. The technology demonstrator sprinted over 40,000 kilometres in seven days and 13 hours – literally driving “around the world in eight days” – and pulverised a total of 25 long-distance records in the process.

Customers will be able to choose between two powerful powertrains at the start of ordering in the coming days: the Mercedes‑AMG GT 63 4-Door Coupé and the Mercedes‑AMG GT 55 4-Door Coupé. The models’ pricing will be based on comparable predecessor vehicles.

Driven by a revolutionary concept: For the first time in an all-electric series production vehicle, so-called axial-flux motors are used in the new Mercedes‑AMG GT 4‑Door Coupé. The sports car utilises three of these highly innovative electric motors, two on the rear axle, one at the front. Together, they unleash a system output of up to 860 kW (1,169 hp). This is complemented by a high-performance battery concept that not only guarantees enormous but also repeatedly available power – coupled with impressively fast energy absorption and high power density.

Impressive performance: The sprint from 0 to 100 km/h is achieved in just 2.1 seconds2, while the vehicle requires only 6.4 seconds for acceleration from 0 to 200 km/h.2 The top speed is 300 km/h (with optional Driver’s Package).

Impressive charging speed: The new Mercedes‑AMG GT 4‑Door Coupé is not only fast on the road but also at the charging station. Thanks to a charging capacity of 600 kW, over 460 kilometres of range can be recharged in just 10 minutes.1 For the typical charging cycle from 10 to 80 % State of Charge (SoC), only 11 minutes are required.3

V8 driving excitement programmed: Those who love V8 engines will adore this car. In AMGFORCE S+ mode, the Mercedes‑AMG GT 4‑Door Coupé delivers a highly authentic, AMG signature V8 sound spectacle, coupled with a haptic-immersive experience including traction interruption during simulated gear changes. An adapted driver display in the central tube design perfects the perception of a high-performance V8 sports car. Hard to describe, but all the more impressive to experience. It feels and sounds like you’re in a high-power V8 car, with this mode activated.

The silhouette alone makes it unmistakably clear: the new Mercedes‑AMG GT 4‑Door Coupé stands for performance at the highest level. Shaped by its dynamic fastback, the long, low-slung front hood, the steeply raked windshield, and the distinctive rear diffuser, the vehicle makes a bold statement of maximum sportiness. Compared to its predecessor, the new Mercedes‑AMG GT 4‑Door Coupé could be designed 4 cm lower – despite having a battery in the underbody. A true highlight is the front design: the AMG specific grille with its vertical slats is offered for the first time optionally illuminated and in a further developed, concave shape. The likewise illuminated, centrally positioned Mercedes star and the headlights with star-shaped daytime running lights create a unique light signature, giving the sports car an unmistakable presence.

The hood blends seamlessly into the overall design. Derived from motorsport, the two pronounced power domes clearly reveal AMG’s sports-car DNA. In the side view, the athletic design language continues and from the low front emerge strongly flared fenders. The flat, elongated greenhouse with its three-part window graphic sits firmly on the very muscular rear shoulders. True to sports-car tradition, the exterior mirrors are mounted directly on the doors, while flush-fitting door handles underscore the aerodynamic refinement. The large wheels and long wheelbase further emphasise the sporty proportions.
From a bird’s-eye perspective, the tapering of the greenhouse toward the rear becomes visible, giving the car its extremely wide, athletic shoulder line. Six circular taillights in turbine design with star graphics lend the sports car an unmistakable rear identity. An optional, impressive light strip used as an additional taillight further enhances the sporty appearance.

Visually, the body sits on a powerful, black-gloss contrast base that extends from the front splitter wrapping around the vehicle’s front, along the side sills, and to the rear. Extremely short overhangs complete the iconic proportions. The highly dynamic presence of the Mercedes‑AMG GT 4‑Door Coupé reaches its ultimate expression when the new active AEROKINETICS rear diffuser is deployed.

The interior of the Mercedes‑AMG GT 4‑Door Coupé is consistently designed around the driving experience. The characteristically low, perfectly integrated seating position – typical of a true sports car – immediately conveys a focused, emotional driving feel reminiscent of models such as the two-door Mercedes‑AMG GT. The entire operating philosophy is designed for intuitive control of all driving-relevant functions. This ensures that the driver’s attention remains exactly where it belongs: on the driving experience.
