The GT 4-Door features a radical fastback silhouette with active aerodynamic elements and sharp AMG detailing, but frontal styling has proven controversial.
Mercedes-AMG’s radical new electrified future has arrived with the world debut of the all-new GT 4-Door Coupé, packing advanced axial-flux motors and F1-derived battery tech into the new AMG.EA platform.
However, its exterior styling, which borrows heavily from the Concept AMG GT XX, has come under fire, with some fans on the firm’s social media pages describing it as AMG’s ugliest vehicle ever. But beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and when it comes to technology and performance, there is plenty to behold here.
Described by its creator as a “masterpiece of engineering”, the Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door is the first series-production vehicle to feature axial-flux motors. Unlike conventional radial electric motors, axial-flux units use a disc-shaped design where electromagnetic force runs parallel to the axis, enabling far higher power density in a much smaller package
Aggressive proportions and functional aero underline its high-performance focus.
