Refreshed Mercedes-AMG GT63 and GT63 S

Following the redesign of the GT43 and GT53 sports models with a six-cylinder engine, Mercedes-AMG has this time decided to refresh the 4-Door Coupe versions of the GT63 and GT63 S. Both models are powered by a V8 engine.

The exterior of the car has not changed much. Customers can choose from four new matte body colors and four new metallic shades, as well as Spectral Blue Metallic and Spectral Blue Magno. Inside, there are several new interior colors and an AMG Performance multifunction steering wheel.

The powerful GT63 S is powered by a 4.0-liter biturbo V8 engine with 639 hp (470 kW) and 664 lb-ft (900 Nm) of torque, while the GT63 model has 585 hp (430 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque. Both models are mounted on a specially made 21-inch set of forged AMG rims.

As a reminder, at the top of AMG’s offer for the GT 4-Door Coupé remains the PHEV version 63 S E Performance, which is powered by a V8 engine with 843 hp (620 kW) and 1,033 lb-ft (1,400 Nm) of torque. That’s enough for the car to reach 62 mph in just 2.9 seconds with a top speed of 196 mph (316 km / h).

The starting price for the refreshed AMG GT 4-Door Coupé with V8 engine is $ 174,000 (€ 158,163), and the first examples in European showrooms should appear in April.
