Mercedes-Benz Malaysia today unveiled the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S E Performance, the most powerful production vehicle ever produced by Mercedes-AMG.
Bettina Plangger, Vice President of Sales & Marketing, Mercedes-Benz Cars Malaysia & SEA II introduced the car by saying, “We are excited to announce the arrival of the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S E PERFORMANCE to our esteemed patrons in Malaysia. The stunning AMG GT 4-Door Coupé effortlessly showcases its sporty and elegant persona, setting a new benchmark in the world of luxury automobiles. Its seamless blend of purebred sports car performance and remarkable practicality for daily usage is a true testament to its engineering excellence.”
Mercedes-AMG is carving its own technological route in order to bring its iconic brand DNA into an electrified future. In order to accomplish this, the Affalterbach-based business employs innovations from Formula 1 in its E Performance Hybrid approach. An independent drive configuration with an electric motor and battery on the back axle is part of the concept.
Equipment and Features
Fitted with advanced suspension, the AMG Ride Control+ suspension changes the damping force for each wheel in milliseconds thanks to continually adjustable pressure relief valves. The AMG Dynamic Select drive programmes are used to preselect the fundamental setup, ranging from “Sport+” mode for especially dynamic driving to “Comfort” mode for smooth glide. Furthermore, tuning can be adjusted in three stages independently of the drive programmes by pressing a button.
The integrated AMG Dynamics driving dynamics control system influences, among other things, the ESP (Electronic Stability Programme), all-wheel drive, and the electronically controlled limited-slip rear differential control methods. This improves agility without compromising vehicle stability. The ceramic high-performance compound brake system is lightweight, long-lasting, and exceptionally stable.
Active Parking Assist with Parktronic and a 360-degree video system, as well as self-dimming and electrically folding mirrors, are included with the Parking Package. Meanwhile, the set of airbags includes side bags for the rear occupants as well as a knee airbag for passive safety.
Wide range of customisation options for Interior/Exterior
MANUFAKTUR kalahari gold and AMG green hell magno paint finishes are available as exclusive colour options. The MANUFAKTUR mark represents the greatest level of originality and luxury through the use of carefully selected materials that are largely handled by hand. Exclusive paintwork and high-quality interior finishes are also included. Other options for the Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupé include MANUFAKTUR classic grey uni, MANUFAKTUR olive metallic, and MANUFAKTUR copper orange magno (matt version), as well as a variety of leather colours.
There is also a two-tone leather steering wheel, deep-pile floor mats with embroidered AMG lettering, and side skirt decal kits in three colour versions.
The 21-inch AMG forged wheels with a 5-twin-spoke design, painted black, and with a rim flange with a high-sheen finish give the performance hybrid an extremely dynamic appearance. The AMG Night Package and AMG Night Package II, with their high-gloss black and dark chrome exterior features, as well as the black foiling over the side sills, complete the sporty design.
The AMG Aerodynamics Package and the AMG Exterior Carbon Package are standard features. The panoramic roof brings in a lot of natural light into the vehicle’s interior. An undiluted motorsport feeling dominates here, thanks to details like as the AMG Performance seats in Exclusive nappa leather and the AMG trim pieces in carbon.
