Mercedes-AMG GT4
Mercedes-AMG is developing a new GT4 race car based
around the AMG GT.
Although limited details about the GT4 are available
at this point, it will draw on the brand’s highly successful AMG GT3 racer and
be available to amateur and professional drivers and teams in the near future.
It sits somewhere in between
the road-legal AMG GT R and the track-only GT3. It therefore includes a similar
rear bumper and diffuser to the GT R but with a much large rear wing, racing
slick tires, a new front splitter, modified hood and of course, a stripped-out
interior.
Speaking of the model, chairman of the management
board of Mercedes-AMG GmbH, Tobias Moers, said “The development of the
Mercedes-AMG GT4 is another important step in the continuing expansion of our
Mercedes-AMG motorsport programme. The excellent feedback of our Customer
Sports teams concerning the AMG GT3 and the increasing interest for GT4 race
cars strengthened us in our decision. We are delighted to address an even
larger target group of amateur and professional drivers and teams in the future
with it.”
