I am sure you have seen these cars more than once in your life. Whether they were standing behind them in traffic or walking down the alley, they threw a glimpse at the lid of their trunk. three pointed star, Mercedes principle, How . But each time, your mind picked up one detail that is not so often present on these cars. Three letters, A.M.G. What is it and what do they eat with? Let's try to figure it out.
Probably, there is not a single person living in big cities who would not know that the presence of these three letters means that the car he is in this moment looks is a tuned version of Mercedes-Benz. But how many of you have ever wondered what this abbreviation means and is it an abbreviation at all? In what cases are these badges hung on Mercedes? Do they necessarily have to mean that hundreds of Horse power? And that this car should always cost twice as much as a regular model from Stuttgart?
A.M.G. is a division of the Stuttgart-based automaker. Since 2007, the sub-brand has been completely absorbed by the auto giant, which, on the one hand, allowed it to expand its capabilities in preparing cars, but on the other, significantly reduced its independence in decision-making.
The company was originally created by two former Mercedes engineers who worked in the sports department and took part in the development sports engine 300 SE in 1967. Since then, the AMG nameplate has become synonymous with fast and powerful Mercedes models so adored by the creators of this company. Their names were Hans Werner Aufrecht and Erhard Melcher. Accordingly, the initial letters of their surnames formed the beginning of the abbreviation, "AM", while "G" was added from the name of the city of Grossaspach (Großaspach), which is located near Stuttgart, where the first founder of the company was born.
The answers to the following three questions can be combined into one. Mercedes attaches AMG nameplates only if the engineers from Affalterbach have done their magic on the car. But the degree of intervention in the factory model can vary significantly. For example, two absolutely identical car in the back of W212 (E-Class fourth generation), may differ in the technical component as heaven and earth.
Under the hood of one you will find a "modest" 4.6-liter V-shaped eight-cylinder engine with 408 hp. with 600 Nm of torque or any other engine from the range (motor in this case tuning can be anything, even 1.8 liter). Another Mercedes with an AMG badge will have a modified unit installed. Accordingly, his performance will be completely different. For example atmospheric engine(M156) E63 AMG power data will correspond to 525 hp. and 630 Nm of torque.
The thing is that in the first case we are dealing with an additional package: AMG Sport.
In the model with the W212 body, the sports package includes:
Appearance
Modified bumpers (rear and front);
Side skirts very similar in design to those fitted to Mercedes-AMG vehicles;
Front apron and diffuser rear bumper made in the style of AMG;
18" alloy wheels with sports low profile tires 245/40 R18 front and 265/35 R18 rear
Interior
Sports seats with improved lateral support and contrasting lateral stitching on the seats and armrests;
upholstery front sports seats made of DINAMICA microfiber and faux leather ARTICO
Three-spoke sports steering wheel trimmed in Nappa leather with paddle shifters;
Black roof lining;
Sports metal pedals with rubber spikes are made of stainless steel;
The floor will also feature branded floor mats with the AMG logo;
Technical component
understated sports suspension;
perforated brake discs increased diameter;
Calipers with Mercedes-Benz logo.
Additionally, cars with V6 or V8 were equipped with automatic seven-speed 7G-Tronic transmissions.
In the second example, we are talking about a full-fledged (real, if you want) modification of A.M.G.
The fourth generation of the E63 AMG already had a 6.2 liter V8 M156 engine. Power - 525 hp, torque - 630 Nm. The engine was combined with a specially prepared AMG box gearshift AMG SpeedShift MCT.
The tuning version was equipped with an AMG Ride Control sports suspension with a modified damping system, which was perfect for both aggressive, dynamic driving and urban conditions.
Also, AMG specialists with new steering rods, a lightweight stabilizer roll stability, new subframe. Ceramic brake discs and wide tires 255/40 R18 at the front and 285/35 R18 at the rear ensure safety at high speeds.
The main external difference is the “6.3 AMG” nameplates.
The efficiency of the car increased significantly, even in comparison with the most powerful version The E500 4MATIC of those years accelerated to 100 km / h in 5.2 seconds, the sedan pumped in AMG “made” a hundred in 4.5 seconds.
And finally about the cost. Naturally, these two versions of cars differed significantly in cost. A model upgraded by AMG could cost 1.5-2 times more than a modified version with an AMG look.
Mercedes AMG A45 4Matic
Representative entry level AMG is AMG A 45 4Matic. 2.0 liter engine The A45 is turbocharged and has 360 hp. in hatchback body style. 381 strong 2.0 liter engine is available for the restyled version of the car.
The A45 is a very fast and at the same time affordable AMG car. Acceleration in 4.6 seconds (or 4.2 seconds in the restyled version) really makes this superhatch a real hot thing. It is even capable of overtaking the base version of the Porsche 911.
Cost in Russia:
Dorestyling: 2.550.000 rubles
Restyling: 2.860.000 rubles
Mercedes AMG C 63
Let's go further. Before us is the latest replenishment in the regiment of real AMG. On the Russian market there are cars in two body versions: sedan and coupe. They, in turn, are divided into two modifications: C 63 AMG and C 63 S AMG.
The "basic version" of the C 63 AMG has a 4.0 liter 476 strong engine, accelerating a two-door in exactly 4 seconds, a sedan in 4.1 seconds.
The C 63 S AMG has the same volume, but with more power - 510 hp. With it, the sedan reaches 100 km/h in 4 seconds, the C 63 Coupé does it in 3.9 seconds.
Abroad, the model is also available in station wagon body.
Cost in Russia:
Sedan
C 63 AMG: 4.600.000 rubles
C 63 S AMG: 5.100.000 rubles
coupe
C 63 AMG: 4.800.000 rubles
C 63 S AMG: 5.300.000 rubles
Mercedes AMG E 63
The AMG E 63 is basically the same as the C 63, only bigger, more powerful and a bit faster. 5.5 liter twin-turbo V8 engine quickly responds to pressing the accelerator pedal, has 558 hp. in the "regular" AMG version and 585 hp. in the E 63 AMG S version.
Both tuning versions of the E-Class go out in 4 seconds when sprinting to 100 km / h, reaching the milestone in 3.7 and 3.6 seconds, respectively.
Cost in Russia:
E 63 AMG 4MATIC: 5.790.000 rubles
E 63 AMG S 4MATIC: 6.000.000 rubles
In our country it is possible to buy more whole line models touched by the hands of AMG wizards. We have named the most common and most available options rulers. Also on the market in Russia you can buy: , AMG, AMG, and SL-Class AMG, and SLC-AMG. As you can see, there is a choice.
A few words about the AMG packages...
The above examples concern truly charged options from AMG. Let's give an example and more budget options, which will be affordable for many Mercedes lovers. To show others your taste, you do not need to lay out millions of rubles. It is enough to purchase an AMG package for your car and you will be happy. The option is suitable for calm drivers. Its main advantage is budget.
Almost any Mercedes-Benz vehicle in the lineup can be equipped with the AMG package. We cited the assembly of the AMG package above using the example of the previous generation model. The flexible system of "setting" Mercedes for yourself allows you to create an irresistible without any problems and overpayments. appearance and exclusivity for your favorite car.
AMG, is it worth buying?
I understand that the question sounds very strange. And yet, is it necessary to buy AMG? If there enough banknotes and desire, of course you can, even you need. Among competitors from a large German troika( , ), in our opinion, it is cars with a three-pointed star that can give not only breathtaking dynamism and breathtaking speeds, but also incomparable style and a classic sense of sophistication, familiar only to Mercedes-Benz owners.
Which is better, a used AMG or a new Mercedes with the optional AMG Sport package?
Some will think, maybe get a used AMG variant? We would not advise doing this in times of crisis. If there is not enough money for new AMG better play it safe and buy latest model from the salon, supplemented body kit AMG. This way you will avoid the following:
Large operating costs;
High fuel consumption;
Huge tax and insurance;
A used car tends to break down. Can you imagine how much original parts from AMG can cost? That's it!
All of this can be avoided with a regular Mercedes with the AMG package. Service will not cost a big penny, and for 90% of people it will look exactly like a real one Mercedes-Benz AMG.
A big five-door liftback based on a supercar? Alas, miracles do not happen. Coupes and roadsters AMG GT have their own original platform with two lever suspension“in a circle” and carried back according to the transaxle scheme by the preselective “robot” Getrag. It would be too expensive and unreasonable to stretch such a "cart" and fence all-wheel drive. That's why new five-door under the same name, the AMG GT was created on the same platform as the mass Mercedes E-class and CLS: with a front two-lever, rear multi-link and located immediately behind the engine "automatic". And ideologically, GT and CLS are completely in the same niche of large “four-door coupes”. How will they get along there?
First, they have a different body type: five-door Mercedes-AMG The GT has a boot capacity of 395 liters (plus 60 underground), but with the rear seats folded down it boasts 1,324 liters of boot space. Secondly, the GT looks more brutal and aggressive. And thirdly, it will not have “civilian” versions: the liftback was originally developed under the patronage of AMG engineers and is equipped only with powerful gasoline engines.
If the modifications of the two-door AMG GT differ in letter prefixes, then the variants of the five-door have the same digital indices like other AMG models. The base Mercedes-AMG GT 53 is equipped with a three-liter straight-six, which is familiar from the model, has a turbocharger and electric blower. Engine output - 435 hp and 520 Nm, but it is helped by the EQ Boost hybrid system, which is a starter-generator located on the “tail” of the crankshaft, powered by a 48-volt electrical system. The motor produces 22 hp. and 250 Nm, helps in the first seconds of acceleration, and can also turn off and quickly start a gasoline engine while driving.
The "fifty-third" liftback is equipped with the traditional "automatic" AMG Speedshift TCT 9G with a torque converter and nine gears, and fully drive transmission 4Matic+ - with permanent rear wheel drive and a multi-plate clutch for connecting the front axle (there will be no rear-wheel drive versions at all). Such a liftback with a curb weight of 1970 kg can accelerate to 100 km / h in 4.5 seconds and reach 285 km / h. The absence of a speed limiter, by the way, is another feature of the AMG GT model, because a similar CLS will not go faster than 270 km/h.
The Mercedes-AMG GT 63 is equipped with the well-known V8 4.0 biturbo engine: it has new dual-flow turbochargers, a liquid intercooler and a half-cylinder cut-off system at low loads. The engine produces 585 hp. and 800 Nm, and it is paired with an AMG Speedshift MCT 9G gearbox, which has a wet clutch instead of a torque converter. Also, the AMG GT 63 has air suspension instead of springs and a thruster on rear axle: up to 100 km / h, two electric actuators deflect the wheels in antiphase with the front ones, reducing the turning radius, and after “hundreds” they turn them in the same direction as the front ones, increasing driving stability.
Larger brakes are also installed, and at the front - with fixed brackets and six-piston mechanisms. After all, the car is not only heavy (2025 kg), but also very fast: acceleration to 100 km / h takes 3.4 seconds, top speed - 310 km / h.
Finally, at the top of the range is the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S. The four-liter engine is boosted to 639 hp. and 900 Nm, active hydraulic bearings are installed power unit and an electronically controlled rear differential, a drift mode has been added to the transmission, in which ESP is turned off, and the front wheel coupling is opened － and the car becomes exclusively rear-wheel drive. The liftback is now even a little heavier (2045 kg), but also more dynamic: up to 100 km/h in 3.2 s, top speed is 315 km/h. Even the most powerful hybrid Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid (680 hp) is inferior to such a Mercedes: it has an acceleration time to “hundreds” of － 3.4 s, and a top speed of － 310 km/h.
The five-door GT is fitted as standard with the AMG Track Pace electronic system, which reads 80 vehicle parameters during racetrack runs, including even the drift angle. The driving electronics have six main modes (Slippery, Comfort, Sport, Sport +, Race and Individual), and in addition there are separate presets for insurance systems (Basic, Advanced, Pro and Master), which differ in the degree of intervention in the actions of the pilot.
But the AMG GT is also a complete family car. He has five seats(on request, separate rear seats can be installed), there is a four-zone climate control (the microclimate in the rear of the cabin is controlled from a touchscreen in the central armrest), matrix headlights, and even a Drive Pilot complex that can independently drive a car along the highway.
The five-door Mercedes-AMG GT will hit the market in the summer, and, apparently, even the basic version will be more expensive than the similar AMG CLS.
42 years ago two young successful designers Daimler Hans Werner Aufrecht and Erhard Melchner set up the "Design and Test Office for Racing Engines". They have been successful. Today, the AMG abbreviation is a symbol of maximum automotive power in the most magnificent design performance.
AMG decoding
So what is AMG? The letter A is the surname of Hans Werner Aufrecht, the letter M is the surname of his companion Erhard Melchner, and the letter G is the village of Grossashpach, where Aufrecht was born. After successful career at Daimler, they wanted more: more speed, power and freedom.
AMG's home is Affalterbach, a quiet village in the Rems-Murr district. It was here that in 1976 a company appeared that began to equip Mercedes with even more powerful engines, wide wheels and add expressive angles and edges to their bodies. Since 1999 the firm has been called Mercedes-AMG GmbH. Starting as a tuning studio, the company has turned into a creator of exclusive heavy-duty modifications. In the first year of the new millennium, the demand for cars with the AMG logo reached 11,500 units, a year later - 18,700. In 2003, their number exceeded 20,000, and 2008 was the most successful year for AMG - 24,200 sports cars sold. So, on June 1, 1967, our two enthusiasts opened a tuning shop for Mercedes-Benz cars. The first success came four years later. Mercedes 300 SEL 6.3, the fastest in the world serial sedan, passing through the hands of AMG engineers added 500 cu. cm of working volume and its power increased from 250 to 428 liters. With. The rally version of the 300 SEL 6.8 took part in the 24 Hours of Spa-Francochamps and finished best in its class and second overall. After such success, AMG had its first fans who wanted to purchase a customized version of the AMG engine with the signature of the master.
Then there were others sports achivments: The 450 SLC AMG won the 1980 European Road Racing Championship, the 300E 5.6 AMG became the first E-Class to break 300 km/h. In the DTM series, AMG cars also set the tone: in 1992, 16 out of 24 races were won by AMG cars. The first woman to win a DTM race was Ellen Lohr, who piloted a highly refined racing Mercedes. IN 1999 Mercedes-Benz and AMG strengthened their relationship and the Mercedes-AMG GmbH was founded. The name of the models now uses the Mercedes class and numbers indicating the engine displacement. By the way, even today each engine is assembled by one person. A personal plate with the name of the master and his personal signature guarantees the perfect assembly.
Modern models
The AMG models are not only advanced engines. Brakes, suspension, transmission, electronic systems and control systems dynamic characteristics vehicles are also recycled. And what a discreet but spectacular design these cars have!
What is the company preparing for the near future? A new "revolution": in 2010, the first independent development of Mercedes-AMG GmbH is released. The SLS AMG, an exquisite marvel of technology, has a 6.3-liter engine that squeezes out as much as 420 kW (571 hp), aluminum spatial frame, dry sump lubrication system, seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and remote drive arrangement. It is a supercar with gullwing doors like the legendary 300 SL Gullwing. This car has every chance to open new page in automotive history.
Mercedes-Benz is a manufacturer that has become famous all over the world thanks to its reliable, powerful, beautiful and really quality cars. And if we talk about this concern, then it is impossible not to be touched by the attention of AMG. What is this abbreviation and what is hidden behind the three letters?
Story
Back in 1967, in the city of Grossaspasch, two engineers created the AMG company, which was supposed to design and test racing engines. They did not think about the name for a long time - they simply took the first letters of the names of the founders of this bureau and the city. Their first client was a man from Kiel, who drove his Mercedes to the office, which his acquaintances advised him. And the mechanics were really able to squeeze everything out of the engine of his car. The client was so impressed with the quality of the work done that a couple of hours later he returned to AMG and once again thanked the mechanics, which inspired them greatly.
From that moment began the history of the company, which today is known throughout the world. And the next step in their career growth was the beginning of cooperation with Mercedes-Benz. To date, AMG are cars with a beautiful body kit, with minimal acceleration to “hundreds” (a little more than three seconds), and the engine power indicator goes far beyond 1000 hp. It is not surprising that these cars are respected and in demand among motorists.
Powerful dynamics
High dynamics AMG Benz successfully emphasized by its stylish design, which also combines technical necessity. These features include, for example, widely protruding wheel arches. In general, it is worth noting that the technical component radically distinguishes Mercedes-AMG from other vehicles. So engineers always face an important and difficult task - to integrate into the machine powerful technique, and in parallel to create a presentable appearance with traditional athletic proportions.
To achieve this goal, the creators adhere to the principle that the form always follows the dynamics. And in the guise of AMG it shows. For example, powerful air intakes, which are located in the form of the letter “A”, convex spectacular lines on the hood, enlarged wheel arches, wide tires, clearly designed sill lining - all this is AMG. What does it give, why do engineers develop every little thing of the car so carefully? The fact is that any detail is carried out in best traditions AMG, the result is a truly unique sports car that cannot be confused with any other car.
The sports engine is the heart of AMG
Separately, I would like to touch on the topic AMG engines. What is this part of the car, everyone knows. The motors of these machines are as powerful as possible, they are distinguished by a wide speed range, low specific gravity and excellent acoustic performance. Also, one cannot but rejoice. The developers themselves impose increased requirements on their inventions, and, I must say, this is bearing fruit. It's because of the engines. Mercedes cars AMG are extremely agile, have excellent tractive effort and quickly accelerate to “hundreds”. It should not be hidden that AMG engines are powerful units, in the development of which expensive technical solutions taken from racing sport. It was AMG who developed the new 5.5-cylinder V8 biturbo engine that amazed everyone in 2010.
Bright representative of the series
Perhaps the Mercedes-Benz AMG SL 65 is a car that can become the face of the entire series. Indeed, this is the most powerful representative of this lineup. The car looks luxurious, develops incredible speed in seconds and provides the driver complete security on road. What is the first thing that catches your eye? Perhaps the exterior. It is worth highlighting the sports exhaust system with double chrome-plated tailpipes, the latest V12 BITURBO nameplates, a double louvre Just to name a few of the features of this luxurious model.
Mercedes-Benz AMG SL 65 has a trunk roof spoiler, perfectly polished LED running lights and even “gills” (both on the wings of the body and on the hood). One thing can be said about the interior: this is the real embodiment of sophistication. Noble materials were used in the decoration, so the Mercedes looks as luxurious inside as it does outside. Not an ounce of vulgarity and excess - everything is in the best traditions of the German manufacturer.
Max power
Finally, I would like to say a few words about the most powerful and expensive AMG electric car. What kind of car is it, what does it look like, what are its technical characteristics? This is SLS electric drive. Its price is about 538 thousand dollars. This monster accelerates to “hundreds” in a little less than four seconds, and its maximum speed is 155 miles per hour! Even though four electronic motor are charged from lithium ion battery, they give out very solid power - 740 hp. To fully “gain strength”, the car needs 20 hours, but it is sold with the car fast charging by 22 kW - it reduces this process to three hours. The car is truly amazing technical specifications. So far, no manufacturer in the world has been able to achieve such results, only Mercedes-Benz has achieved such success. That is why AMG today occupy the first places in the rankings of the best, high-quality and popular cars.
As part of the Geneva International Motor Show 2018, the debut of the German Mercedes-AMG sports car GT 4-Door Coupe (Mercedes-AMG GT 4). So now in model line German company three models of the Mercedes-AMG GT (Mercedes-AMG GT) - a two-seat closed-body sports car Mercedes-AMG GT coupe, a soft-top convertible Mercedes-AMG GT Roadster and a 5-door hatchback officially named Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door coupe.
In our review, the new 2018-2019 Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe - photos and videos, price and equipment, technical specifications of a sports 5-door hatchback, declared by the manufacturer as a 4-door coupe. Sales of the 5-door Mercedes-AMG GT will start in the summer of 2018 at a price of 120-125 thousand euros for a 435-horsepower all-wheel drive Mercedes-AMG GT 53 4Matic+.
If the two-door Mercedes-AMG GT and Mercedes-AMG GT Roadster are drafted into the ranks of Mercedes to compete with the Porsche 911 coupe and Porsche 911 Cabriolet, then the Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe will try to knock down the Porsche Panamera model. And take my word for it, the new Mercedes will make it easy.
It should be noted right away that a large 5-door hatchback with a comfortable 4-5-seat interior and luggage compartment, capable of accepting 395-1324 liters depending on the position of the rear seat backs, is not a platform brother of the AMG GT coupe and roadster models (the original platform with two lever suspensions of the front and rear wheels, as well as the Getrag “robot” located at the rear axle (transaxle scheme )).
At the heart of the Mercedes-AMG GT 4 is the MRA modular bogie with a two-lever front and a multi-lever rear suspension, and automatic transmission located just behind the engine at the front of the vehicle. So the brothers of the novelty are the new generations Mercedes-Benz CLS and Mercedes-Benz E-Class.
The question immediately arises why Mercedes-Benz needs two car Mercedes-Benz CLS and Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe in the sporty "four-door coupe" niche?
First, machines with different types bodies: CLS - 4-door sedan stylized as a coupe, and GT 4 - 5-door hatchback also stylized as a coupe.
Secondly, the 5-door GT looks more aggressive and brutal than the sedan's platform brother.
Thirdly, the Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe will not have modest versions with diesel engines, rear-wheel drive and a price tag in the region of 70,000 euros, but only the most powerful gasoline engines, four-wheel drive and a price starting from a mark of at least 120-125 thousand euros.
As a confirmation, we invite you to get acquainted with the technical characteristics new Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe 2018-2019, offered from the start of sales in three versions with powerful petrol turbo engines.
Mercedes-AMG GT 53 4Matic+ with 3.0-litre six-cylinder engine(435 hp 520 Nm), supplemented by a starter-generator of the EQ Boost system (22 hp 250 Nm), which helps the car with intensive acceleration. The gearbox is automatic 9-speed (AMG Speedshift TCT 9G), 4Matic + all-wheel drive transmission (by default, the drive wheels are rear, and if necessary, the multi-plate clutch connects the front wheels, thus providing the car with all-wheel drive). Such a technical arsenal provides a 5-door curb weight of 1970 kg with acceleration dynamics from 0 to 100 km / h in 4.5 seconds and a maximum speed of 285 km, declared fuel consumption of 9.1-9.4 liters. Spring suspension, disc brakes on all wheels.
Mercedes-AMG GT 63 4Matic+ with 4.0-litre V8 Biturbo (585 hp 800 hp) equipped with new dual in-line turbochargers, liquid intercooler and half-cylinder deactivation system. AMG Speedshift MCT 9G transmission with wet clutch instead of a traditional torque converter, of course a proprietary system all-wheel drive 4Matic+ and also air suspension and rear steering wheels in corners with a pair of electric actuators (at speeds up to 100 km / h they turn in the opposite direction of the front wheels, and at higher speeds they turn in the same direction as the front wheels). A car with a curb weight of 2025 kg shoots up to 100 km / h in 3.4 seconds, a maximum speed of 310 km / h, average consumption fuel 11.0-11.2 liters.
Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S 4Matic+ with 4.0-litre V8 Biturbo petrol (639 hp 800 Nm), AMG Speedshift MCT 9G automatic, 4Matic+ all-wheel drive system supplemented rear differential With electronic control. The transmission additionally received a drift mode with complete shutdown ESP and front-mounted multi-plate clutch. In drift mode, the 5-door sports car is exclusively rear-wheel drive. Suspension, of course, pneumatic with thrusters rear wheels. Most powerful motor accelerates a car with a curb weight of 2045 kg to the first "hundred" in 3.2 seconds, a maximum speed of 315 km / h, an average fuel consumption of at least 11.2 liters.
As standard equipment for all modifications of the 5-door Mercedes-AMG GT, the AMG Track Pace system is offered to help you choose optimal mode for driving on the race track (Slippery, Comfort, Sport, Sport+, Race and Individual), supplemented by a belay system with several prescribed levels driving skills(Basic, Advanced, Pro and Master). The higher the level, the less the electronics interfere with driving, tracking and reading as many as 80 parameters.
I would like to note that the new 5-door Mercedes sports car in terms of dynamic and speed characteristics surpassed all modifications of the Porsche Panamera. For example, the 550-horsepower Porsche Panamera Turbo picks up the first “hundred” in 3.6-3.8 seconds and accelerates to a maximum of 306 km / h, and the hybrid and most powerful in the Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid line with 680-horsepower power plant able to accelerate from 0 to 100 km / h in 3.4 seconds and dial top speed at 310 km / h, but ... this is only enough to compete with the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 4Matic +, but not with the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S 4Matic +. It's hard to imagine what a full-fledged Mercedes-AMG GT 4 hybrid with an 800-horsepower power plant will be capable of.
We figured out the technique, and let's get back to the exterior and interior of the chic 5-door hatchback, positioned concern Daimler like a 4 door coupe. The exterior design of the body, as mentioned above in our review, is aggressively brutal, stylish, bright and charismatic, as befits an expensive sports car. In the presence of LED matrix headlights, a powerful body complemented by a mass of aerodynamic chips - splitters, spoilers, active blinds ( rear spoiler adjustable, and for a surcharge even made of carbon), huge wheels - 255/45 R19 on the front axle and 285/40 R19 on the rear axle for the Mercedes-AMG GT 53 4Matic + and Mercedes-AMG GT 63 4Matic + versions and larger 265/40 R20 and 295/35 R20 in the powerful modification of the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S 4Matic+. If desired, 21-inch forged aluminum wheels with 275/35 R21 tires at the front and 315/30 R21 at the rear can be installed on any version of the 5-door for an extra charge.
The interior of the Mercedes-AMG GT hatchback, at the request of the customer, can be either a 5-seater with a rear sofa designed for three, or a 4-seater with two separate seats for rear passengers. At the same time, all the seats in the cabin are sports with powerful lateral support and anatomical backrest profile. Driver's seats and front passenger like a GT3 racing car. The design of the front of the Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe is a combination of the front panel from the platform Mercedes-Benz CLS and the tunnel of the two-door Mercedes-AMG GT.
Available analog (for Mercedes-AMG GT 53) or digital panel instruments (Mercedes-AMG GT 63 and Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S versions) with a screen diagonal of 12.3 inches, advanced multimedia system with a similar dashboard size display, a sports steering wheel with touchpads, background LED interior lighting (64 colors to choose from), driver and front passenger seats with electric adjustments, ventilation and heating, rear seats heated and ventilated, three or four zone climate control and ground electronic systems safety, assistants and assistants from the automatic braking system and adaptive cruise control, working with the help of radars to the Drive Pilot complex, capable of independently driving a car on the highway.
