The upcoming Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe signals a bold step into the future of high-performance electric mobility, combining signature AMG dynamics with advanced EV technology.
Ahead of its global debut, the model has already demonstrated its capabilities under extreme winter testing conditions, highlighting precision, control, and next-level driver engagement.
AMG RACE ENGINEER: Precision-Tuned Driving Dynamics
At the core of the new model is the AMG RACE ENGINEER, an advanced driving dynamics system that integrates hardware and software to deliver a highly customizable driving experience.
Three rotary controls allow for precise adjustments:
– Response Control: Fine-tunes accelerator response from smooth to aggressive, depending on driving mode.
– Agility Control: Adjusts cornering behavior by modifying torque distribution, enabling anything from stable understeer to controlled oversteer.
– Traction Control: Offers nine levels of slip regulation for optimal grip in performance driving scenarios.
This system is designed to unlock its full potential on closed tracks, offering experienced drivers an unprecedented level of control.
AMG Performance 4MATIC+ with Triple Motor Setup
The new Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe introduces a groundbreaking electric drivetrain featuring three axial flux motors—a first for an all-electric sports car in this segment.
Key highlights include fully variable torque distribution between front and rear axles, individual torque vectoring across the rear wheels and seamless transition between rear-wheel and all-wheel drive.
The AMG Performance 4MATIC+ system continuously adapts to driving conditions, ensuring optimal traction, especially in challenging environments like snow and ice.
Advanced Suspension and Braking Systems
The model features AMG ACTIVE RIDE CONTROL, an advanced air suspension system with active roll stabilization. Using hydraulically interconnected dampers, the system eliminates traditional anti-roll bars, improving both comfort and cornering precision.
Benefits include reduced body roll during dynamic driving, enhanced ride comfort on uneven surfaces, adaptive ride height for improved efficiency and range.
Braking performance is equally impressive, with a high-performance composite braking system combining carbon ceramic front discs and steel rear discs. This ensures consistent pedal feel whether braking is achieved through regeneration, mechanical brakes, or both.
Built for Extreme Conditions
To validate its performance, the new AMG GT 4-Door Coupe underwent extensive testing near the Arctic Circle in northern Sweden. On frozen lakes and snow-covered roads, engineers focused on refining:
– Traction and stability control
– Torque distribution accuracy
– Battery performance in sub-zero temperatures
The battery system features directly cooled cells with a non-conductive coolant, allowing precise temperature management. This ensures consistent performance, fast thermal readiness, and efficient cooling during repeated high-load driving.
Engineering Excellence Through Rigorous Testing
The development program includes more than 500 individual tests, covering everything from steep icy climbs to handling circuits on low-grip surfaces. These conditions push every system to its limits, ensuring the production model delivers both performance and reliability in real-world scenarios.
A New Chapter for AMG Performance EVs
With its innovative drivetrain, advanced chassis systems, and highly customizable driving dynamics, the Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe represents a significant leap forward in electric performance vehicles. It blends cutting-edge technology with the brand’s motorsport DNA, setting new benchmarks for what an electric sports sedan can achieve.
