Given the number of hints Mercedes has dropped, an unveiling appears imminent. Soon there won’t be other things to reveal. The carmaker has shown the AMG GT’s fashionable red interior. The dashboard includes a wing like shape that may anger the Audi TT’s creative designers, while the center-console buttons are arranged such as the cylinders of the car’s motor.
That engine is the 4.0 liter, twin-turbocharged V8 attached to a 7 speed AMG Speed shift automated transmission. After debuting with this car, it will most likely find its way in to other AMG models. The AMG GT will probably keep the SLS’s traditional long hood, short deck proportions, but lose the gull wing doors that turned out to be less cool in life than they were about the drawing board. This is considered to become the best with regards to Mercedes engine swaps.
The new car’s chassis must be less frivolous as nicely. To truly measure facing competitors like the Porsche 911 as well as Audi R8, Mercedes will have to improve on the SLS AMG’s less than precise dealing with, one of the primary complaints against that vehicle. Yet even when it had been careening sideways in the cloud of tire smoke cigarettes, the SLS AMG made quite an impact. The AMG GT will probably too.
