Have you ever met a person who, after visiting a beauty salon, shined in a new light, but remained unchanged in the soul? Well, Mercedes has done just that with its Mercedes-AMG GT63 SE Performance - 2024. No major surgery, just the master hand of the designers. He went for botox and at the same time received a "design lift"!
Let's start with some staggering numbers. When the model debuts in 2021, Mercedes has claimed that it can reach speed 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 2.9 seconds and reaches a maximum speed of 315 km/h. So if you've ever wanted to outrun your shadow, or at least that neighbor who's always bragging about his new car, this is the car for you. The price? In Germany, it starts at €207,708.55, which is roughly $218,686.99 at the current exchange rate. Of course, if you don't add all the extras that Mercedes offers. Of course, there are a lot of them!
Mercedes-AMG has given its Mercedes-AMG GT63 SE Performance 4-Door Coupe a new look. This sedan now boasts a refreshed front end design, a new color option and other minor changes. And although he may be a little "rejuvenated", his soul remains just as strong. The face of the 2024 GT63 SE Performance 4-Door Coupe is now more in the spirit of the new AMG GT Coupe - that's the easiest way to describe the changes. It has a wider and narrower lower grille, which turns the previously wide outer openings into sporty vertical slits. The lights are the result of an aesthetic eyelid surgery, although it could be said that they "illuminated" the entire car in a completely new light.
Me personally Mercedes-AMG GT63 SE Performance it is very reminiscent of the CLS model, which unfortunately Mercedes no longer wants to produce. Of course in the higher GT class.
As for the interior, Mercedes has added some extra goodies. So the Mercedes-AMG GT63 SE Performance got some "fashionable accessories", such as an electric sunroof and a wireless charger for smartphones between the rear seats - because who wants cables around the car these days? The MBUX infotainment system has been updated with AMG-specific displays that are so captivating you might forget to look at the road. And if you've ever wanted your favorite song to sound like an orchestra in your living room, the Burmester Surround Sound System is here. For those with more discerning ears, the Burmester High-End 3D Surround Sound System is also available. So if you've ever wondered what opera would sound like in your car, look no further.
Under the hood is a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 hybrid engine that produces 831 horsepower (620 kilowatts) and 1,033 pound-feet (1,400 Newton-meters) of torque. The engine is mated to the AMG Speedshift MCT 9G nine-speed transmission and the AMG Performance 4Matic+ all-wheel drive system. And no, it's not the transmission your grandpa used in his old truck.
