Mercedes-AMG has expanded its exhilarating AMG GT lineup with the reveal of the elegant 2025 Mercedes-AMG GT 43 Coupe and pricing details for the all-new second-generation 2024 AMG GT models arriving this spring.
The 2025 AMG GT 43 Coupe delivers pure driving pleasure with its handcrafted 416 hp 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder engine featuring electric exhaust gas turbocharger technology derived from Formula 1. Mated to an AMG SPEEDSHIFT 9G transmission and rear-wheel drive, the GT 43 can sprint from 0-60 mph in an estimated 4.5 seconds.
“The GT 43 appeals to customers who love design and focus on elegance but are unwilling to compromise on driving pleasure and driving dynamics,” said Michael Schiebe, CEO of Mercedes-AMG. “The rear-wheel drive concept makes the GT 43 a very agile vehicle that will put a smile on your face on winding roads.”
Visual differentiation for the AMG GT 43 includes a unique front fascia with large air inlets, narrower fenders, trim accents, and distinct rear fascia with round tailpipe trim. Three optional design packages allow further customization of the exterior.
Inside, analog geometry blends with digital technology in a “hyper-analog” layout focused on the driver. Standard sport seats, unique trim options, and the latest Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) infotainment bring a premium and sporty feel.
The 2024 Mercedes-AMG GT launches as the brand’s new flagship model, available in GT 55 and GT 63 variants powered by Handcrafted AMG 4.0L V8 Biturbo engines producing 469 hp and 577 hp respectively. Pricing starts at $134,900 for the GT 55 and $175,900 for the GT 63.
Both models feature an array of advanced performance tech as standard including AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive, AMG ACTIVE RIDE CONTROL suspension, active rear-axle steering, active aerodynamics, and the AMG DYNAMIC PLUS package with rear limited-slip differential and RACE drive mode with Drift capability.
The sleek yet muscular new AMG GT design incorporates short overhangs, a long wheelbase, wide rear track, and seamlessly integrated active rear spoiler. Available styling packages offer added customization like carbon fiber accents.
The premium interior delivers elegant materials, 2+2 seating versatility, and the latest technologies like a Head-Up Display and Burmester surround sound system.
With breathtaking performance, advanced technologies, and signature AMG styling inside and out, the 2025 AMG GT 43 Coupe and 2024 AMG GT represent the pinnacle of the Mercedes-AMG lineup. Customers can reserve the ultimate driving machines when they arrive at dealerships in the coming months.
Carlist Thoughts
Stunning. Sexy. In the world of EVs that go 0-60mph in 2 seconds, 4ish seconds is an eternity’s slow pace, but speed isn’t everything when it comes to the joy of driving.
