Electric performance cars are already becoming more exciting, and Mercedes-AMG has only gone up a notch. The Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe EV is an all-electric variant of the legendary company performance car, which the company officially teased. The GT 4-Door Coupe has always been a favorite among fans as it has been known to blend luxury, practicality, and performance of a supercar. Merccedes-AMG is now ready to enter an entirely new world of electrified performance and emotion, with an EV twist.
An AMG Electric Era Bold New Design Language.
The trailer only provides a preview, but it is sufficient to make fans thrilled. The Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe EV does not betray its sports proportions but adds some futuristic elements that emphasize the electric character.
The design elements that are likely to be included are:
A more aerodynamic and sleek shape.
AMG Panamericana-style grill, closed-off with EV ventilation adaptation.
Better LED lamp lighting signature, inspired by the Vision AMG concept.
Broad positioned and muscular rear shoulders.
Large aerodynamic wheels
Fully-fledged LED tail-light bar.
The duo is supposed to be lower with more aggressive and sculptured body profile based on maximum efficiency and unbelievable speed. Mercedes-AMG desires to keep the same emotional touch of its combustion engines, but combine it with the modern EV design – and it appears they are headed in the right direction, as the teaser shows.
Territory: New AMG.EA Platform.
The next AMG GT EV will likely be grounded on the AMG.EA all-electric platform that the brand will have specifically developed to support high-performance electric vehicles.
This platform promises:
Zero lag acceleration due to electricity.
Strong dual or triple motor installation.
High performance thermal control.
Racially inspired handling and stability.
Performance and range battery at high voltage.
Mercedes-AMG is developing this platform so that their EVs do not merely appear to be fast, but they drive like AMG.
Blowing people away performance anticipated.
Though, no official specifications have been disclosed, industry sources project a performance of a supercar by the Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe EV.
Projected performance statistics:
Power: 700-1000 + HP (depending on the variant)
0-100 km/h: Under 3 seconds
Maximum speed: Electronically controlled (probably 250 or more km/h)
Range: 500-600 km (WLTP expected)
Drivetrain: Torque-vectoring, all-wheel drive.
This would put the GT 4-Door Coupe EV on a level with the Porsche Taycan Turbo S, Tesla Model S Plaid, and Audi RS e-tron GT.
The mission of AMG is quite straightforward, a better performance should be achieved through electrification and not the substitution.
State-of-the-Art Battery and motor technology.
The GT EV will probably feature a high-density battery pack, which is a joint venture with the Mercedes-AMG Formula 1 department.
Possible features include:
High speed charging based on silicon-anode battery.
Ergonomic ultra-fast charging at 800 V.
Hi-tech regenerative braking systems.
Cooling system based on motorsport.
This partnership points into the fact that the EV will be capable of performing well and consistently high even when subjected to repeated acceleration.
Futuristic Meets Future Luxury Technology.
Similar to the current GT 4-Door Coupe, the e-model is projected to have a high-end and loaded cabin.
Examples of interior highlights can be:
The next-gen digital interface or MBUX Hyperscreen.
EV specific EV modes of AMG.
Developed ambient lighting themes.
Eco-friendly luxury fabric.
Sports seats fitted with inbuilt headrests.
Driving assistant system based on AI.
AMG can also come up with a new sound simulator that will provide a driver with an emotional experience despite the absence of a combustion engine.
