The 2024 Mercedes-AMG GT Coupe will be available in two models, the 577 hp AMG GT 63 Coupe and 469 hp AMG GT 55 Coupe, arriving at U.S. dealerships in the first half of 2024.

- Interior design
The interior design of the new AMG GT Coupe uses AMG's high-performance sports car DNA, which is skillfully translated into a digital world and developed further. Elegant materials, superb craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail underscore the luxurious cabin. The cockpit design, right down to the central display in the center console, is focused on the driver and impresses with a harmonious overall look. The fully digital instrument cluster is integrated into a three-dimensional visor.

- Sculptural seat design with integrated headrests
The large selection of upholstery choices also reflects the range from comfortable to performance-oriented equipment. Single and two‑tone Nappa leather are also among the options, as is particularly elegant MANUFAKTUR Nappa leather with diamond quilting or the sporty combination of Nappa leather and microfiber and contrasting topstitching in yellow or red, alongside three massage programs for excellent long-distance comfort.

- AMG Performance steering wheel in double-spoke design
The three rounded double spokes of the standard AMG Performance steering wheel combine strength with lightness. The steering wheel rim, which is flat at the bottom and covered in Nappa leather or Nappa leather/microfiber, can be heated as standard. It also includes a sensor mat with "hands-on" detection. If the driver does not have their hands on the steering wheel for a certain period of time, a warning cascade is started, which finally activates Active Emergency Stop Assist should the driver remain inactive.

Two AMG DRIVE UNIT steering wheel buttons are fitted standard and impress with intuitive operation, brilliant color LCD displays and modern icons. This allows important driving functions and drive programs to be controlled. The selected setting is shown on the display, which is directly integrated in the respective button. The AMG SPEEDSHIFT® MCT 9G transmission can also be shifted quickly and precisely manually using the aluminum shift paddles behind the steering wheel rim.

- Handcrafted AMG 4.0L V8 Biturbo engine with two twin-scroll turbochargers
The 2024 AMG GT Coupe is powered exclusively by a Handcrafted AMG 4.0L V8 Biturbo engine in two performance levels. The engines are assembled entirely by hand at the company's site in Affalterbach according to the "One Man, One Engine" principle. In the AMG GT 63, the engine delivers 577 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque. Acceleration from 0 to 60 mph takes just 3.1 seconds, and the top speed is 196 mph. In the GT 55, the V8 unit produces 469 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque. The sprint from 0 to 60 mph takes 3.8 seconds, and the top speed is 183 mph.

- Digital and smart assembly by hand: "One Man, One Engine"
The engine in the AMG GT Coupe is assembled entirely by hand. In the AMG engine factory at the Affalterbach site, the "One Man, One Engine" principle is linked to Industry 4.0 production methods. This is designed according to modern knowledge of ergonomics, the flow of goods, quality assurance, sustainability and efficiency. Smart production is characterized by maximum flexibility, is transparent and highly efficient. It assures and improves the quality of the engines and the production processes with digital technologies.

- Multi-clutch transmission with wet start-off clutch
The AMG SPEEDSHIFT® MCT 9G transmission combines an emotional shift experience with extremely short shift times and is specially tailored to the new AMG GT Coupe. A wet start-off clutch replaces the torque converter. This reduces weight and, thanks to its lower inertia, optimizes the response to commands from the accelerator pedal, especially during acceleration and load changes.

- Fully variable AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive
The two V8 models are equipped standard with the fully variable AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all‑wheel drive. The intelligent system combines the advantages of different drive concepts. The fully variable torque distribution on the front and rear axle not only ensures optimum traction at the physical limit. The driver can also rely on a high level of handling stability and safety under all conditions: on dry, wet or snowy roads. The transition from rear-wheel to all-wheel drive and vice versa takes place continuously, based on a sophisticated matrix that integrates the intelligent control into the overall vehicle system architecture.

- Six drive programs and AMG DYNAMICS: from comfortable to dynamic
The six AMG DYNAMIC SELECT drive programs "Slippery," "Comfort," "Sport," "Sport +," "Individual" and "RACE" enable a wide range of vehicle characteristics from comfortable to dynamic. Each program offers a unique driving experience, precisely tailored to different driving conditions.

- Equipment and personalization
The equipment offering and numerous options provide a wide range of possibilities for customization – from sporty and dynamic to luxuriously elegant. This includes eleven paint colors and eight new wheel designs. There are five exterior design packages to choose from to sharpen the look further in the direction of elegance or dynamism. The AMG GT 55 and AMG GT 63 are fitted standard with 20‑inch alloy wheels. 21‑inch wheels are optionally available.

- Numerous connectivity services available

The MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience) infotainment system makes it possible to use many digital services from Mercedes me connect. The advantages are the smartphone integration of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, hands-free system via Bluetooth connection and HD radio.
