Mercedes-AMG unveiled new GT electric crossover

Germany's Mercedes-AMG presented the new GT electric crossover. The front of the car is decorated with an illuminated decorative panel featuring vertical metal strips that recall the traditional AMG radiator grille. The headlights feature daytime running lights in the shape of a three-pointed star, while the rear features six round light elements combined with a horizontal LED strip.

Distinctive features of the model also include frameless side windows, widened wheel arches, and flush door handles.

The length of the new model ranges from 5080 mm to 5084 mm, the width is 2001 mm, the height is 1653 or 1656 mm, and the wheelbase is 3040 mm.

Special attention was paid to aerodynamics. The AMG GT 55 and GT 63 versions feature an active spoiler on the roof, which begins to adjust its position when the speed reaches 150 km/h. Depending on the speed and driving conditions, it can reduce air resistance or increase downforce.

In addition, controllable vertical shutters are installed in the front bumper. In normal conditions, they remain closed, but open for additional cooling when necessary.

The entry-level Mercedes-AMG GT 53 version is equipped with two synchronous electric motors—one on each axle. Their total output is 544 horsepower.

The more powerful GT 55 and GT 63 models received three electric motors with axial magnetic flux. Two of them are mounted on the rear axle, and one more on the front axle. The Mercedes-AMG GT 55 produces 816 horsepower, while the flagship GT 63's maximum output reaches 1169 horsepower.

The most powerful crossover reaches 100 km/h from a standstill in 2.5 seconds, and crosses the 200 km/h mark in 6.8 seconds.
