Mercedes-AMG shocks 500 kW jolt into two-door AMG GT 63

With normal V8 and four-cylinder derivatives already out, Mercedes-AMG has introduced a hybrid version of the AMG GT, the 63 S E Performance.

Replacement for the AMG GT R sports a first-time hybrid V8 drivetrain to become the three-pointed star's most powerful coupe.Rumoured for introduction, but confirmed, ever since the launch of the now second generation model at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance last year,has taken the wraps off the most powerful derivative of the AMG GT to date, the new 63 S E Performance.

Hooked to the nine-speed MCT transmission, which houses the electric motor itself, the AMG GT 63 S E Performance will get from 0-100 km/h in 2.8 seconds and hit a top speed of 320 km/h. Sending the amount of twist to all four corners is the AMG-tuned 4Matic+ all-wheel-drive system. As with its sibling, the GT 63 is all about performance and as such, has an all-electric range of only 13 km.

Besides a second flap hiding the charging port, the newcomer gets E Performance badges on the front wings, grooved twin trapezoidal exhaust outlets on either side of the rear bumper, a model specific front splitter and standard 20-inch or optional 21-inch AMG alloy wheels.
