Mercedes-Benz has officially unveiled the AMG GT at the Paris Motor Show. As you may already know, the new German model was designed to compete against the Porsche 911 and it is described as an everyday sports car.
On the outside, we see an aggressive front part that is dominated by the LED headlights and by the impressive grille. Moving at the rear end, we see a deployable spoiler, special taillights and sequential turn signals.
Inside the cabin, customers will find a flat-bottomed steering wheel, sport seats and a special center console. The Germans have introduced a freestanding infotainment system with a 7- or 8.4-inch display.
Under the hood, the 2014 Mercedes AMG GT comes with a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 engine rated at 462 horsepower and 600 Nm peak of torque. As a result, the car can sprint from stand still to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.0 seconds, while the top speed is clocked at 304 km/h (188 mph).
The Mercedes AMG GT S is coming with the same engine but this time it develops 510 horsepower and 650 Nm peak of torque. As a result, the sprint from 0 to 100 km/h is done in 3.8 while the top speed is electronically limited to 310 km/h (193 mph).
