Upgraded tech on the AMG GT is actually an exquisite sight to behold, and to drive.
Perhaps not meant to interchange the long-lasting SLS Gullwing, the AMG GT has nonetheless had some fairly huge sneakers to fill. We really feel it has stuffed them fairly effectively, being one of many manufacturers most profitable premium sports activities automobiles. And now, it has been re-designed for 2024. Youtube channel RoCars has had an up-close look. There’s quite a bit that has modified below the brand new pores and skin, each mechanically and within the expertise division as effectively.
Tech is all new on this AMG GT, which is available in GT55 and GT63 variations, as famous by Automobile and Driver. COMAND’s greatest change comes within the type of what seems to be like an enormous pill as a central management unit. In right here you’ll discover IWC gauges on your lap occasions, and a neat 360 diploma digital camera that may be seen from any angle. A brand new heads-up-display mirrors the instrument display, each with an fascinating inside-to-outside type rev counter.

Extra importantly although, the AMG GT has now shifted itself away from the sports activities automotive it as soon as was, and is now aimed towards GT territory. It’s not completely a nasty factor, as a result of that’s what it’s named, in any case. And we’re positive that if an AMG GT Black sequence had been to occur for this C192 chassis. And naturally, the aftermarket will pay money for it, and throw their tunes and turbos at it with out batting a watch.
