Leaving the V8 in the past: The all-electric Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door

  • Mercedes-AMG revealed its all-electric GT 4-Door, a performance vehicle built on the new AMG.EA architecture launching in GT55 and GT63 variants.
  • Powering the vehicle are three axial-flux motors from British engineering firm YASA, which promise a 67 percent reduction in weight and length versus traditional radial-flux designs.
  • The GT63 produces 1,153 hp and 1,475 lb-ft of torque, with the 106-kWh battery supporting 800-volt charging; AMG claims the GT63 can accelerate from zero to 60 mph in 2.0 seconds.
  • While official pricing remains unannounced, estimates suggest the electric GT 4-Door will start around $150,000, with the GT55 arriving later this year and the GT63 early next year.
  • With a 0.22 drag coefficient, the GT 4-Door positions itself to compete against the Porsche Taycan, utilizing an oil-cooled battery system developed with Formula 1 program inputs to sustain high-performance output.
