Mercedes-AMG GT XX: 1,341-HP Electric Sedan Challenger

Electrified Dominance - The automotive world is entering a fascinating phase where silence meets speed, and sustainability no longer means compromise. In this era of electrified adrenaline, Mercedes-AMG has stepped forward with something extraordinary—an electric machine that doesn’t just whisper performance, but roars innovation. Meet the Mercedes-AMG Concept GT XX, a car that embodies the soul of AMG in the form of pure electric power, ready to shake up everything we thought we knew about high-performance sedans.

At first glance, the GT XX doesn’t merely hint at speed—it declares it. Designed as the spiritual successor to the AMG GT 4-Door Coupé, this concept pushes boundaries in both performance and aesthetics. Mercedes-AMG wanted to make a statement about where the brand is heading, and this 1,341-horsepower beast makes that message impossible to ignore. It’s not just another EV; it’s a declaration that AMG is fully committed to mastering electrification without losing the character that made it legendary.

Under its sleek, muscular body lies an engineering masterpiece. The GT XX runs on the dedicated AMG.EA platform, which houses a 114 kWh battery pack integrated directly into the car’s structure. This design doesn’t just provide strength—it enhances safety and rigidity. Cooling is managed through an advanced oil-based system to keep performance consistent even under extreme load. Mercedes claims its charging capacity can reach 850 kW, the highest figure in the world today, though public chargers are still catching up to such capability.

When it comes to performance, the numbers are almost unreal. With a triple-motor configuration generating a combined 1,341 hp, the GT XX sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in under 2.5 seconds, topping out at a breathtaking 360 km/h. That’s hypercar territory—yet this machine has four doors and the practicality of a grand tourer. Markus Schäfer, Chief Technical Officer of Mercedes-Benz, described it as a “rolling technology lab,” a glimpse into the innovations that will soon find their way into future AMG models.

Its exterior design takes Mercedes into an entirely new visual language. The front end features a dramatic concave oval Panamericana grille, seamlessly blending hidden headlights and a large aerodynamic splitter. The profile stretches 5,204 mm in length and 2,130 mm in width—longer and wider than the Porsche Taycan, the very rival it’s gunning for. Around the back, things get even bolder. There’s no rear window, replaced instead by a sculpted panel with 730 LED dots and six circular lights, producing a futuristic glow that feels straight out of science fiction. With a drag coefficient of just 0.19, the GT XX is among the most aerodynamic cars ever built.

Inside, the cabin feels like stepping into the future of racing. Every surface, every contour, every control speaks of performance and purpose. Two digital displays—a 10.25-inch instrument cluster and a 14-inch central touchscreen—dominate the minimalist dashboard. The steering wheel takes inspiration from the AMG One hypercar, complete with integrated driving mode selectors. The seats, crafted from 3D-printed ergonomic material, combine recycled GT3 tires with biosilk fibers, showing that sustainability and luxury can coexist beautifully.

Then there’s one of the car’s most fascinating features: its eight-speaker external sound system. Instead of letting the silence of electric motors dull the thrill, AMG has recreated the emotional sound signature of its classic V8s, giving drivers and bystanders a familiar symphony of power—minus the emissions. It’s a small touch that turns technology into emotion, blending the old spirit of AMG with the new era of electrification.

Mercedes-AMG has confirmed that the production version of the GT XX will arrive in 2026, maintaining the performance and design seen in this concept. A high-performance SUV built on the same platform will follow in 2027, expanding AMG’s electric portfolio further. With this, Mercedes isn’t just chasing the Porsche Taycan—it’s redefining what electric luxury performance can be. | KoPOQ-KchkA |

As the world continues its journey toward electrified mobility, the GT XX stands as proof that speed, emotion, and innovation can coexist in perfect harmony. It’s not just a car; it’s a statement—a vision of what happens when heritage and high voltage collide. The future of AMG has never looked this electrifying, and the road ahead has never been more thrilling. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | MERCEDES-BENZ | CARANDDRIVER | OTO ]
