Mercedes-Benz AMG GT 63 S (X290) specs

When Motor Trend got the 3.2 0-60 and the 11.6 1/4-mile time at 118-119ish mph, they were accounting for an equal atmospheric pressure altitude. Very rarely do supercharged and especially turbocharged cars get that treatment anymore. The Shelby GT500, CT5-V Blackwing, Porsche 911, BMW M5, etc., have had porky figures published too.

That exact GT63S was given the Hellcat treatment, even though most s/c and t/c cars are supposed to "make more power than claimed." It's got 630hp versus 717-797hp, weighs around the same 4600lb, and comes with AWD instead of RWD.

They even did the same thing with the Maserati Ghibli Trofeo, another rare occurrence of when a s/c or turbo car gets the Hellcat treatment.

Quote>"Mercedes-AMG's familiar twin-turbo 4.0-liter V-8 will sit under the hood. Tuned here for 643 hp, the engine makes its peak torque of 664 lb-ft from 2,500 to 4,500 rpm and its peak hp from 5,500 to 6,500 rpm. While the torque peak may be a little high, that's no problem because it's supplemented by a rear-mounted electric motor that spins up a maximum of 204 hp for 10-second blasts and can continually provide 94 hp. The motor's torque, which tops out at 236 lb-ft, comes on immediately to fill in any gaps in power delivery at the low end.

Together, the engine and motor make 843 hp and 1,033 lb-ft, which propel the car from 0-62 mph in 2.9 seconds, to 125 mph in less than 10 seconds, and to a top speed of 196 mph. Mercedes only released European specifications, so U.S. specs may change slightly."

Well that's QUICK! And the torque is 1355NM circa!

LOL!

Mercedes have improved their lap time at the Nurb in the AMG GT 63S. 20.6km 7:23 20.8km 7:27.8

Imagine being so mad at buying an unreliable car, you set it on fire :D

Sachsenring:
Mercedes AMG GT63S 1:32.59
BMW M8 CP: 1:31.77
AMG faster by a tiny margin everywhere else.

Seems pretty close.

There is no such car with name "Mercedes-Benz AMG GT", the name is "Mercedes-AMG GT63s 4matic+"

BMW M5 CP 1:33.40 Pireli P Zero
AMG GT 63 S 1:33.20 Pilot Sport 4S
Audi RS7 1:36.51 Hankook Ventus S1

Mercedes is supposedly working on a "GT73", with 800+ horsepower and a hybrid system. Will probably be a nice match for Porsche's Panamera "Lion", an 820 horsepower prototype Panamera that's been running sub 7:10s on the 'Ring.

Price fully speced 210000 eur+. Ouuuch... Wasn't it that you could buy a V12 Lambo for that money not too long ago?

Wrong name, it's Mercedes-AMG GT63s 4matic+

10.2s for 0-200kmh is not possible with 630hp and +2000kg weight. 11.5 is realistic. Looks like factory tuning.

Another review which favors the M5 over the GT63S.
This benz is a $200k flop.

IT beats BMW m5 competition with 11 seconds on nurburgring

Can't even beat the M5 Competition. The M8 GC will put this overpriced garbage out of its misery.

Autobild Sportscars dynoed this thing and got 671 ps and 933 Nm. Crazy...

This AMG GT63s is one little beast, it is currently the fastest sedan out there and it is destroying the M5 competition in every aspect and taking on supercars. Crazy time we live when you see a 4 door weighing this much is destroying lap times and breaking records. Love that thing. The scariest part is there is a more powerful version in the works.

Between Supercars!!

The amg gt 63 s is faster than a r8 v10 plus on these track and very close of a facelift 911 gt3!

poor tyres makes me wanna cry when imagine it

What tyres were on the car on its Nordschleife lap?
The extreme spec of the Cup2 (out of tyre heaters) like on the AMG GT R?

oh, btw, this merc is ugly af

this car is just another reason why turbo s should have been tuned up version instead of hybrid. I’m okay with hybrids, but the ts is a whole 300kg heavier than already heavy panamera. Testers say whatever they’re forced to say by automakers, but you just can’t deny physics, 2,3 tonns is too much for a car that wants to be called sporty.

There is a Nürburgring laptime for this car: 7 min 25.4 sec
