Mercedes has presented the new 4-door electric AMG GT in Spain, a car that delivers 1,169 horsepower and sells for less than half the price of many rival supercars, such as the Ferrari Luce. The German brand is betting on electrification without sacrificing performance, positioning this model as a direct alternative to the big names in the segment.
800-volt battery and all-wheel drive with torque vectoring ⚡
The AMG GT's electrical system uses an 800-volt platform that enables fast charging of up to 320 kW. The 120 kWh battery powers four independent motors, one per wheel, managed by torque vectoring software that adjusts power delivery in milliseconds. Adaptive air suspension and rear-axle steering complement a chassis designed to maintain stability at high speeds, although weight remains a factor to consider compared to lighter thermal models.
1,169 HP to go buy bread (and get there before the delivery guy) 🍞
With 1,169 horsepower under the hood, this AMG GT is perfect for those express trips to the supermarket. Sure, if you forget your wallet at home, you go back, return, and still have plenty of time to beat the neighbor to the parking spot. The downside is that, with that much power, you'll probably arrive so fast there won't be any freshly baked bread. Progress, eh.
