Mercedes-AMG has completed its line-up of two-door GT derivatives, the latest being the track-focused new GT 63 Pro.
Producing the same amount of power as the of two generations ago SL 65 AMG, the Pro, for now, remains a forbidden entity for South Africa.
Unveiled at the Goodwood Festival of Speed that kicked-off on Thursday , the Pro sits atop the standard AMG GT line-up, but below the plug-in hybrid 63 S E Performance thatA combination of the standard GT 63 and the GT3 racing variant, the Pro’s main difference involves aerodynamic and underbody changes, as well as upgrades to the 4.0-litre bi-turbo V8 that remains unassisted by any form of electrification.
Besides the AMG Performance steering wheel and AMG Performance seats trimmed in micro-fibres and Nappa leather, the AMG GT 63 Pro’s interior is identical to the standard GT 63, and therefore devoid of items such as a rollcage found on the racing variant.On the power front, the twin-blown V8 receives 20kW/50Nm more than the standard GT 63, which translates to outputs of 450kW/850Nm, the former identical to the 6.0-litre bi-turbo V12 used in the SL 65 AMG of two generations ago.
