Mercedes-Benz AMG GT 4-door Coupe EV: Design and exterior
Fastback silhouette adapted for EV packaging
The teaser shows the GT 4-door Coupe EV keeping the long-bonnet, low fastback shape of its ICE counterpart. The EV adopts smoother surfaces, a cleaner front end and flush door handles, all aimed at improving aerodynamic efficiency. The roofline and rear section also appear more streamlined, suggesting AMG has focused on reducing drag for the electric layout.
Production-ready lighting and finished bodywork indicate the prototype is close to its final form. While the interior hasn’t been revealed, the exterior stance suggests AMG wants to retain the familiar look of its combustion models while adapting the design to suit a dedicated EV platform.
Mercedes-Benz AMG GT 4-door Coupe EV: Platform and performance
EV platform and motors focused on performance
As stated earlier, the GT 4-door Coupe EV will be the first model to use AMG’s new AMG.EA electric platform. The setup is built around a high-performance battery and new electric motors developed specifically for AMG. These motors, designed to be compact and deliver high output, are expected to maintain strong performance during repeated acceleration runs.
AMG has also indicated it will use axial-flux motors and a liquid-cooled battery system for this platform. The focus is on efficient cooling and stable power delivery, both of which will be key to positioning the GT EV as a performance-oriented four-door model.
