Someday subsequent month, Mercedes-AMG will reveal its substitute for the GT 4-Door Coupe. We noticed a shadowy teaser previewing the automotive’s silhouette, however new photos present a clearer take a look at the unnamed mannequin.

It seems the brand new Mercedes will ditch the GT’s liftback design for a conventional trunk. There’s a transparent physique line separating the rear glass and the camouflaged rear spoiler, however it’s onerous to know for certain till we see the actual factor. It appears like an extended, massive automotive with flush door handles, large multi-spoke wheels, and a coupe-like roof.

The AMG additionally seems to have a hood that opens, probably revealing a entrance trunk. It’s robust to inform if the rear taillights are actual items or decoys, however the headlights seem like they’re production-ready daytime working lights.

The brand new mannequin will journey on the model’s AMG.EA platform, which is meant to end in fun-to-drive electrical autos. There’ll be an SUV equal, with the 2 utilizing YASA’s axial-flux motors—light-weight e-motors that may ship as much as 480 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque.

We nonetheless count on the automotive to weight fairly a bit, although, which might have an effect on the way it handles. The AMG 4-Door GT plug-in hybrid with the V-8 weighs 5,269 kilos. That is heavier than a 2024 Land Rover Vary Rover Sport and almost as heavy as a Chevrolet Tahoe.

The brand new automotive can have two electrical motors, giving the sedan near 1,000 horsepower and over 1,000 pound-feet of torque. Nevertheless, it’s unclear if Mercedes will put one on every axle, giving it all-wheel drive, or connect each to the rear for max chaos. We are saying, why not each?

We must always get all the main points subsequent month when AMG takes the camouflage off. This automotive may very well be the way forward for the AMG model, if its clients enable it. One thing tells us it’s going to take greater than enormous energy figures and futuristic appears to win individuals over.
