The 2021 Mercedes-AMG GT Coupe and Roadster will arrive at U.S. dealers in early 2021 with a healthy power upgrade. Their handcrafted 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 boasts 54 more horsepower than before, producing a total of 523 HP at 5,500 – 6,750 rpm. Peak torque also sees an increase of 39 Nm, reaching 669 Nm between 2,100 – 5,250 rpm. As a result, the 0-96 km/h time is cut by 0.2 seconds to 3.7 seconds and top speed increases to 312 km/h for the Coupe and 311 km/h for the Roadster.
Besides the powertrain updates,
Mercedes-AMG offers more standard equipment, including the AMG Ride Control
suspension with adaptive damping adjustment, electronic limited-slip
differential, AMG high-performance composite brakes and red painted brake
calipers. Also new for 2021 are a lithium-ion starter battery and a ‘Race’
drive program setting.
Customers who want an even more special
AMG GT can spec the 2021 model with the new “Stealth Edition”. Available on
both body styles, the package brings a more sinister appearance inside and out.
On the outside, the Stealth Edition sports the AMG Exterior Night Package,
headlamps with black elements, AMG radiator grille in dark chrome, black brake
calipers and mixed-size tires mounted on 19-inch matte black Y-spoke wheels up
front and 20-inch ones at the rear.
Also on the menu are a carbon fiber roof
with dark-tinted areas on the Coupe and a black soft top on the Roadster. A
black body color is standard, but customers can also opt for obsidian black
metallic, selenite grey metallic or designo graphite grey magno.
Inside, the 2021 Mercedes-AMG GT Stealth
Edition gains the AMG Interior Night Package, AMG Performance seats upholstered
in Exclusive Nappa Style leather in black with diamond quilting, as well as AMG
steering wheel in Dinamica microfiber with black spokes and shift paddles.
Rounding out the interior modifications are black topstitching black piano
lacquer trim elements (optionally in carbon fiber/black piano lacquer), and a
unique center console badge. The new 2021 AMG GT Coupe and Roadster will arrive
at U.S. dealers in early 2021, with pricing to be announced closer to launch.
