It will be the second bespoke AMG EV built on the tuning division's own AMG.EA platform for electric vehicles.

Mercedes-AMG teases its second bespoke EV, a sporty-looking full-size electric SUV. The AMG electric SUV will debut in 2026 after the fastback model. Its power level will reportedly exceed 1,000 horsepower. Mercedes-AMG has its own dedicated electric vehicle architecture called AMG.EA that it plans to underpin several models. The first is an electric equivalent for the AMG GT four-door fastback, followed by a full-size SUV.

So a dual-motor configuration would be pushing close to 1,000 horsepower, bringing these vehicles in line with some of today’s most powerful EVs. A tri-motor setup would be needed to allow AMG to compete at the very top of the EV power pyramid, where vehicles like the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra exceed 1,500 hp. AMG needs big power numbers to drive up the excitement of its upcoming EVs if it wants to prove its CEO right.
