Description
The Mercedes-AMG GT R is the hardcore, track-ready version of AMG’s two-door sports car — engineered to challenge and defeat serious performance cars on both road and racetrack. It bridges the gap between a road-legal supercar and a championship-proven racer.
Performance & Power
At its heart is the handcrafted 4.0-liter AMG M178 twin-turbo V8, producing:
-
430 kW (577 hp)
-
700 Nm torque
-
0–100 km/h in about 3.6 s
-
Top speed around 318 km/h
This engine isn’t just powerful — it’s visceral, with a soundtrack that matches the GT R’s aggressive character.
Race-Born Engineering
The GT R is fundamentally different from other GT models:
-
AMG RIDE CONTROL sport suspension tuned for aggressive cornering
-
Active aero — including an adjustable rear wing and front dive planes
-
Wider track and lighter body for stronger grip and sharper response
-
Independent AMG rear-axle differential for precise power distribution
-
7-speed dual-clutch transmission optimized for rapid shifts
All of this combines to deliver exceptional handling and stability — especially at high speed and on twisty circuits.
Interior & Tech
Inside, the GT R keeps you planted and focused:
-
Driver-oriented cockpit with sport bucket seats
-
Flat-bottom AMG performance steering wheel
-
Digital driver display with performance readouts
-
Optional carbon fiber trim and lightweight sport touches
It’s minimal where it needs to be to reduce weight, yet premium and purposeful elsewhere.
Design That Means Business
The GT R stands out visually with:
-
Large front grille and aero-optimized bumpers
-
Sculpted hood with vents for heat management
-
Prominent rear wing and diffuser
-
Quad exhaust outlets
-
Low, aggressive stance that signals performance
Every component has a purpose — from cooling to aerodynamics.
