New Mercedes-AMG GT C Roadster (USA)
The all-new Mercedes-AMG GT C Roadster is one of the brand's many models that
are making their North American premiere at the 2016 LA Auto Show.
The open-top, high-performance Merc features a
fabric roof, which opens or closes at the touch of a button in 11 seconds. It's
operable at speeds of up to 50 km/h and comes in three color choices:
black, red and beige.
The Mercedes-AMG GT C Roadster was developed as the
range-topping member of the AMG GT convertible family, and benefits from some
of the features found on the hardcore AMG GT R, such as the electronic locking
differential and rear axle steering.
Propelling it from rest to 100 km/h in 3.7
seconds and up to 316 km/h top speed is a 4.0-liter, twin-turbo V8
engine, which, in this application, is good for 550 HP and 681 Nm of torque.
