Mercedes Benz AMG GT Price

 2.39 Crore rupees

The AMG GT is one of the most awaited cars this year as far as the faster lot is concerned, and it does look fantastic. It is, after all, only the second car from AMG that’s not based on any existing Mercedes-Benz model, and the next big thing from the company. In terms of design the AMG GT possesses all the right elements – long hood with a front-mid mounted V8, low, swooping stance, and short rear. The tail lights lend the rear a wider look, and admittedly, its head turning abilities are a lot better than several sportscars. The front is a work of art, no less, with the flared nostrils at either end of the bumper and the familiar looking snout, though with a sharper point at its centre. There’s generous helpings of carbon fibre too – the wing mirrors, slats on the side vents, lower lip of the front and rear bumpers and of course the insides. 

The interiors are draped in carbon fibre and leather, and the enormous centre console dominates the cabin, leaving not much elbow room. Not that you would need to move the elbow a lot, but the stubby drive selector lever is placed too far back. The centre console houses all the exciting bits – driving mode selector, ignition, traction control, suspension adjustment, a loud button for the sports exhaust, engine start-stop, manual drive mode settings and the audio control. There’s also a large touchpad and rotor for the COMAND, in front of which are cup holders (seriously?). There’s five driving modes on offer, Individual, Comfort, Sport, Sport+ and Race. The cabin looks as classy as it should, offering a blend of sportiness and luxury. The dashboard is no less than a feast for the eyes with its silver ringed vents, the familiar looking display screen, and of course all the leather. 

’. Now, all the talk above of the AMG GT getting a smaller engine, lesser power and all that would lead you into believing Merc’s new sportscar isn’t quite the smokey, burn-out monster the SLS AMG was. But if the SLS was like the Juggernaut from X-Men, ready to head butt anyone and anything who dared to mess with it, this one’s the Juggernaut cloaked in a designer suit. It can be quite a monster to drive should you press the right buttons and dare to exercise that right foot. Of course, with a biTurbo V8 making 503bhp and a stomach-churning 650Nm of torque that should be a given.
