Mercedes gt The stunning bodywork of the 2021 Mercedes-AMG GT will undoubtedly catch your eye , but it is more than just a pretty face. The low, spacious GT is also a very capable high-performance sports car. This is a front-engine Mercedes answer to a rear-engine Porsche 911.
The GT is shown at various points, and features a hand-crafted twin-turbo V8. Although the AMG isn’t as immersive to drive as its illustrious rival from Porsche, it’s still super sporty, and most models are surprisingly urban on streets that aren’t on a smooth racetrack. Those who prefer a more refined big ride will appreciate the GT C’s 523 horsepower and 550 horsepower from the GT C,
Those with sportier desires will gravitate toward the 577-horsepower GT R and GT R Pro. Most models are available in coupe and light-road variants , but the track-focused Pro model and the powerful 720-horsepower Black Series are just a hardtop.
Mercedes gt possible for 2021, AMG gives new standard GT features, more power, and a Stealth Edition. With an additional 54 horsepower and 29 pound-feet of torque, the GT engine now produces 523 horsepower and 494 pound-feet. The estimated acceleration times and top speeds also increase,
With a 60 mph time of 3.7 seconds (a tenth faster than before) and a top speed of 194 mph for the coupe and 193 mph for the road. Both models now come standard with a lithium-ion starter battery, Race Drive mode, AMG Ride Control sports suspension with adaptive dampers, a van and electronic limited-slip differential, and a brake system with iron rotors and red-painted aluminum calipers. Stealth Edition gives a sinister look to the GT, with darkening elements

However due to its powerful impact and extended feature content , the regular GT should do the trick. The coupe costs a lot less than the roadster, but we prefer the festival experience and the outdoor experience that comes with the droptop. We choose a combination of 19-inch front and 20-inch rear wheels to get the look and enhance the luxury of the GT by choosing one of the cabin’s Nappa leather options. Finally, to help us fully appreciate our six-figure investment, we selected the ventilated front seats, passive hands-free entry, and the 10-speaker Burmester audio system.
Engine, transmission and performance

Although the Mercedes-AMG GT has a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V-8 and a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic, but depending on which model you choose, the hand-built engine will offer a different production level. It produces 523 horsepower over the base GT model,
It comes standard with adaptive dampers and a rear limited-slip differential. Mercedes didn’t detail any changes to the 2021 GT C and GT R engines, but the previous year they made 550 and 577 hp respectively. The last GT C Roadster we tested was very fast, and with top to bottom, it allowed us to appreciate the chronic AMG exhaust sound. We’ve also driven the GT R Roadster and the sportier GT R Pro Coupe. The former isn’t quite as fast as some mid-engine competitors, but we still appreciated its amazing urban driving.
The Pro may be tougher on everyday driving tasks, but the R’s countless improvements make driving faster and more enjoyable to drive on a racetrack. The new Black Series takes the mantle as the ultimate GT coupe: it’s essentially a legitimate street racing car. Combined with the use of more lightweight materials and a host of track-focused modifications, it features a flat-crank version of the AMG twin-turbo V-8 and produces a whopping 720 horsepower.
Economy Mercedes gt fuel consumption
That means it’s possible. With such performance, it’s no surprise that Mercedes-AMG GT’s lineup is thirsty, but EPA’s fuel economy estimates aren’t as dire as you might expect. Basic GTs are rated at 16 mpg in the city and 22 highway. Those numbers drop to 15 mpg city and 21 highway if you opt for the more powerful GTC, and for comparison, the 911 Carrera S,
Powered by a twin-turbo engine, it is rated at 18 mpg city and 24 highway. The GT R and GT R Pro manage 15 mpg in the city and 20 mpg on the highway. The EPA has not released numbers for the black series, but we will update this section when we have the information. And when we tested the GTC Roadster and GTR Coupe on the 75-mph highway fuel economy, which is part of our comprehensive test regimen, they achieved 20 and 22 mpg respectively.
Interior, comfort and cargo
That is to say, on the inside, the Mercedes GT Mercedes offers superb build quality, and the materials are in line with the price tag of the big GT. The cabin is the opposite of spaciousness, but the driving position is perfect, with capacitive touch controls for the car’s many performance settings conveniently placed within reach of the center console. The 12.3-inch all-digital instrument panel is also impressive. Similar to the way Porsche does things, Mercedes puts the GT’s drive mode selection dial on the steering wheel where it needs to be. Roadsters feature a powered top cover that drops in seconds. With a cargo area of 10 cubic feet, the GT’s trunk is twice as large as the Porsche 911.
Information, entertainment and communication
Next, the GT’s infotainment system works through a central 10.3-inch screen that looks rather large in the narrow confines of the cockpit. Although it is not a touch screen,
However, system functions are handled by a large knob on the console. The touchpad is optional and responds to gestures such as swiping, pinching, and handwriting. That’s why a navigation system and two USB ports come standard, as does a six-month SiriusXM satellite radio subscription and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. Wi-Fi is also available on board.
Safety and driver assistance features
That’s why neither the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) nor the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has crash-tested the 2021 GT. But the GT lineup is available with a variety of driver assistance technologies. Key safety features include:
Standard Forward Collision Warning and Automatic Emergency Braking
Blind spot monitoring and lane departure warning are available
Available adaptive cruise control
Warranty and maintenance coverage
Mercedes’ limited warranties and powertrain are in line with what most luxury competitors offer. However, the lack of free maintenance is noticeable since both Audi and Porsche offer some services.
The limited warranty covers four years or 50,000 miles
The powertrain warranty covers four years or 50,000 miles
No free scheduled maintenance
