AMG GT R

Once again, the visionaries in Affalterbach have driven a stake into the ground and set the new benchmark for racetrack-bred performance. Introducing the 2018 Mercedes-AMG® GT R, the embodiment of all that is Mercedes-AMG®: driving performance at its most passionate, pure and uncompromising.

Beast of the Green Hell:

The Mercedes-AMG® GT R

AMG GT R

Versatile Design

The Mercedes-AMG® GT R is designed as a track car off the showroom floor, with sinister aesthetics and adrenaline-pumping performance dynamics to match. Its handcrafted AMG® 4.0L V8 biturbo engine with "hot inside V" configuration grinds out 577 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque, and the all-new AMG® TRACTION CONTROL with 9 input levels is literally at your fingertips in the center console.

The Best Technology

The motorsports technology goes beyond just the engine. Active rear-axle steering turns up to 1.5 degrees of toe angle for increased cornering response and high-speed stability. The light dual-mass flywheel is responsive and ready to handle rigorous torque spikes of transmission kickdowns on-track. Forged cylinder heads are durable and more resistant to heat. And a sophisticated engine management system adapts based on your driving style, reading your throttle inputs, g-force indicators and more.

Style for Miles

When it comes to styling, the purpose remains the same — extreme performance. Aggressive aerodynamics combine with an advanced cooling system to reduce drag and improve heat dissipation that comes with rigorous track use. And the wide track makes an audacious persona feel all the more visceral and real when you´re behind the wheel.
