2nd-gen Mercedes-AMG GT 63 to be launched on June 27

It will be offered in two variants: GT 63 4Matic+ and GT 63 Pro 4Matic+.

Mercedes-Benz plans to launch 8 new models in India this year. Among them is the second-gen Mercedes-AMG GT 63, which is set to go on sale on June 27. It will be offered in two variants: GT 63 4Matic+ and GT 63 Pro 4Matic+.

The new Mercedes-AMG GT is slightly larger than its predecessor and even has a slightly longer wheelbase. The 2-door coupe has a long hood with a wide, low-slung grille and sweptback LED headlamps. The rear features slim wraparound LED lights and quad exhaust tips.

Inside, the AMG GT comes with a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and an 11.9-inch touchscreen in the centre. Unlike the previous AMG GT, the new model has two additional seats in the back.

Under the bonnet is a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 that delivers 577 BHP and 800 Nm. It is paired with a 9-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox and the 4Matic+ all-wheel drive system, which allows the car to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 3.2 seconds, while its top speed is 315 km/h.

The AMG GT 63 Pro variant is powered by the same engine. However, it has been tuned to 604 BHP and 850 Nm. 0-100 km/h in this car is over in 3.2 seconds, while its top speed is 317 km/h.
