The 2024 Mercedes-AMG GT Coupe  is the second generation of the AMG sports car with a new dimensional concept that features a highly dynamic driving experience paired with elevated comfort.

he second-generation 2024 Mercedes‑AMG GT Coupe is the new flagship model from Mercedes‑AMG. It features a highly dynamic driving experience as well as enhanced comfort and practicality for everyday use. Advanced technology such as the AMG ACTIVE RIDE CONTROL suspension with active roll stabilization, rear-axle steering and active aerodynamics deliver precise handling. The sporty coupe is also fitted with fully variable AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive for the first time, in combination with a Handcrafted AMG 4.0L V8 Biturbo engine. The exclusive AMG sports car architecture with the elaborate composite aluminum body structure allows for the spacious interior with available 2+2 seating and ample room for luggage. As the fifth independent series after the SLS, the first generation of the two‑door GT, the GT 4‑Door Coupe and the SL, the new Mercedes-AMG GT Coupe once again demonstrates the remarkable expertise of the Affalterbach development team.

The deep, wide AMG-specific radiator grille creates a dominant presence, while the lower air intake visually accentuates the width of the vehicle. The sporty front end also showcases power domes on the hood. Distinctive DIGITAL LIGHT headlights, fitted standard, further underline the sports car’s unmistakable appearance. Precise graphics in the darkened interior of the headlights with brushed surfaces provide visual depth. The daytime running light signet with the characteristic three “light dots” makes the AMG GT instantly recognizable from a distance.

The compact greenhouse with a fastback silhouette and large trunk lid allows the design of a low and sculpted back end with an active, deployable spoiler. The detailed design of the fender trim sets an accentuated contrast to the clean, flowing surfaces. The strongly pronounced shoulder gives the vehicle a perfect balance of elegance and sportiness. The flat, horizontally connected LED taillights are seamlessly integrated in the design of the AMG GT. The dark LED taillights compliment the design of the headlights with a three-dimensional “light dots” signet. These feature the running light indicator function and “Coming Home/Leaving Home” animation as standard. The expressive rear diffuser with integrated twin tailpipe accents rounds off the powerful back end.

The interior design of the new AMG GT Coupe uses AMG’s high-performance sports car DNA, which is skillfully translated into a digital world and developed further. Elegant materials, superb craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail underscore the luxurious cabin. The cockpit design, right down to the central display in the center console, is focused on the driver and impresses with a harmonious overall look. The fully digital instrument cluster is integrated into a three-dimensional visor. The center console flows into the lower section of the instrument panel. The functional and visual focal point is the 11.9‑inch multimedia touchscreen. Its portrait format offers numerous advantages, especially for navigation, as well as more ergonomic freedom. The 12.3-inch driver display can be personalized with individually selectable layouts.

The MBUX (Mercedes‑Benz User Experience) infotainment system is intuitive to operate and capable of learning. It offers extensive AMG-specific content in five display styles. Exclusive menu items such as “AMG Performance” or “AMG TRACK PACE” also underline the sporty character.

In the AMG Performance menu, the driver can call up a wide range of data with a tap of the finger including, engine output, lateral acceleration, power distribution of the fully variable all-wheel drive, tire pressure and fluid temperatures. Wheel angles of the front and rear axles as well as oil pressure for the active roll stabilization system are also among the data that can be displayed.

The 2024 AMG GT Coupe is powered exclusively by a Handcrafted AMG 4.0L V8 Biturbo engine in two performance levels. The engines are assembled entirely by hand at the company’s site in Affalterbach according to the “One Man, One Engine” principle. In the AMG GT 63, the engine delivers 577 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque. Acceleration from 0 to 60 mph takes just 3.1 seconds, and the top speed is 196 mph. In the GT 55, the V8 unit produces 469 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque. The sprint from 0 to 60 mph takes 3.8 seconds, and the top speed is 183 mph.

For use in the AMG GT Coupe, the engine received a new oil pan, repositioned intercooler and active crankcase ventilation. The inlet and outlet ports have been optimized for more effective gas exchange and the exhaust gas routing for the catalytic converter and Otto particle filter has been enlarged. The developers achieved the additional output of the AMG GT 63 Coupe primarily through higher boost pressure and greater airflow to the engine, as well as modified engine software.
