The Mercedes-AMG GT EV accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in just 2 seconds, supports charging at 600 kW, and mimics V8 engine and gear shift sounds.
The AMG GT EV can be charged from 10% to 80% in merely 11 minutes.
Mercedes-AMG has produced numerous fast vehicles, but its latest electric GT appears exceptionally ambitious on paper. The newly revealed AMG GT 4-Door EV can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in approximately 2 seconds, ranking it among the fastest production electric vehicles worldwide.
This rapid acceleration is just part of the package. Mercedes has also equipped the AMG GT 4-Door EV with 600kW rapid charging capabilities, allowing it to reach a charge level of 10 to 80 percent in as little as 11 minutes.
How fast can the new Mercedes-AMG GT EV go?
The Mercedes-AMG GT EV lineup includes two versions: the GT 55 and the GT 63. The top-tier GT 63 boasts a 0 to 60 mph sprint time of 2 seconds, despite its four-door coupe design. It can also accelerate from a complete stop to 124 mph in 6.4 seconds, with a maximum speed of up to 186 mph (300 km/h) when equipped with the optional Driver’s Package.
Mercedes-AMG employs a three-motor configuration in this model, featuring one axial-flux motor at the front axle and two at the rear. This arrangement can deliver up to 860kW, or roughly 1,153 horsepower, along with 1,475 lb-ft of torque, contributing to its remarkable acceleration figures.
Additionally, the EV has a unique feature that makes it feel and sound more like a conventional AMG vehicle. In the AMGFORCE S+ mode, it replicates an AMG V8 engine sound, provides gear-shift-like traction interruptions, and produces cabin vibrations.
Is such rapid charging really possible?
The charging specifications are equally impressive. Mercedes claims that the AMG GT 4-Door EV supports 600kW fast charging, capable of adding about 460 kilometers (roughly 286 miles) of range in just 10 minutes. Achieving a charge from 10% to 80% can take as little as 11 minutes, provided the correct charger is utilized. Mercedes-AMG anticipates a WLTP range of approximately 370 to 430 miles, depending on the model and configuration.
The AMG GT EV also features active aerodynamics, rear-axle steering, carbon-ceramic brakes, and AMG-specific driving modes. Inside, Mercedes has introduced a spacious digital cockpit with multiple displays and performance-centered readouts. Additionally, there is almost 15 cubic feet (415 liters) of trunk space, along with a small 1.4 cubic feet (41 liters) front trunk.
Pricing has yet to be disclosed. The 805-horsepower GT 55 is anticipated to debut first in the fall of this year, followed by the more powerful GT 63 in early 2027.
