2024 Mercedes-AMG GT Coupe: Is it the most beautiful Mercedes & a serious rival to the Porsche 911?

Introducing the 2024 Mercedes-AMG GT Coupe: a sports car determined to grow… at least a little. Now it's a four-seat car, which means you can take a couple of friends or, more realistically, extra shopping bags. And with its 4Matic+ all-wheel drive, it is ready for any challenge.

For now, the GT Coupe boasts the “63” and “55” versions, both with V8 engines. Will we see a 375-horsepower four-cylinder version later? Time will tell. But let's look at the numbers.

The AMG GT 63 Coupe is a real star with as much as 577 horsepower and 590 lb-ft (800 Newton-meters) of torque. 0 to 100 km/h (0 + 60 mph) in 3.1 seconds? That's faster than you can say, “Take my money!” On the other hand, the AMG GT 55 Coupe with its 469 hp and 516 lb-ft (700 Nm) of torque reaches 100 km/h in 3.8 seconds. Top speeds? The “63” reaches as much as 315 km/h, while the “55” is not far behind with 295 km/h. Both versions have all-wheel drive and a nine-speed automatic transmission.
