The Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe will eventually come with a partly electric power train. That will be a plug-in hybrid that is still a lot above the current top version in terms of power. The espionage photographer recorded a prototype of that version tested in the snow.
Currently, the most powerful version of the Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe is of course the 63S. It gets 639 hp from the 4.0-liter biturbo V8. Add a dash of electrical power and you have the car that we see here on the pictures. The GT 4-Door Coupe plug-in hybrid combines the same block with an electric motor and thus comes to a combined power that will undoubtedly go one step further than that of the 63 S.
To make a small estimate, we look back on the concept car with such a powertrain. In 2017, Mercedes-AMG presented the preview of the GT 4-Door and that also involved a plug-in. That had in addition to the 4.0-liter V8 also an electric motor on the rear axle and came to a combined power of no less than 805 hp. There is a good chance that the numbers in this plug-in will become reality. Count on it that the 0-100 time of the 63S (3.2 seconds) will be exceeded.
For those who prefer to take it easy, there is also good news. Fully electric driving must also be possible, but for now it is gambling how far the car can get purely electrically. One thing is certain; the Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid can already wet its chest. This Mercedes competitor will probably appear this year.
