FOR ITS 50TH ANNIVERSARY, Mercedes-AMG has unveiled the GT concept at the 2017 Geneva Motor Show. This is the first four-door variant in the AMG GT line-up and previews the technology and performance of the brand’s upcoming hypercar which will be unveiled in Frankfurt later this year.
The highlight of this Mercedes-AMG GT Concept is its hybrid powertrain. It features a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 petrol unit that is linked with Mercedes’ 4Matic all-wheel-drive system and a high performance electric motor that powers the rear wheels directly. Together, they will produce up to 816PS of power. Mercedes-AMG also claims that the GT concept will get from 0 to 100kmph in less than 3 seconds. The car will feature torque vectoring and balanced axle load distribution. Torque vectoring controls how much power is sent to each wheel for optimal grip, especially around corners.
