'Development without compromise'
Mercedes-AMG have released yet another teaser video for their upcoming sportscar which now we know for sure will be unveiled on September 9.
The wait is almost over as the Mercedes-AMG GT will be revealed in less than two weeks, thus confirming a rumor released by German media back in July. The announcement was made at the end of another teaser video, this time talking about the development process which involved no less than 32 months of engineering road tests in 15 countries in temperatures varying from -30 to 50 degrees Celsius.
Someone at Mercedes-Benz or AMG was in charge of measuring the amount of camouflage sheets used and the end result was 2.974 square meters. No less than fifty test drivers participated in the AMG GT's lengthy development during which "0 compromises" were made.
To reiterate, the Mercedes-AMG GT will be motivated by a newly developed twin-turbo V8 4.0-liter rated at 510 PS (375 kW) in the AMG GT-S and 462 PS (340 kW) in the base AMG GT which will be available a bit later. Called "M178", the Euro 6-compliant engine has a dry weight of 209 kg (461 lbs) and will also be used in the upcoming C63 AMG.
Following its September 9 online reveal, the Mercedes-AMG GT will receive its public debut early October at the Paris Motor Show.
