The 2024 Mercedes-AMG GT Is Fast, Beautiful, and More Refined

CHECK OUT CARS & BIDS!

This is the new Mercedes-AMG GT and it's essentially the coupe version of the Mercedes SL. The new AMG GT has gorgeous styling, luxurious comfort, and big power delivered from AMG's fantastic twin-turbo V8. Today I'm reviewing this new Mercedes-AMG GT and I'll show you the many quirks and features. I'll also get behind the wheel and show you what it's like to drive.

To clarify a few things from the video, I work at Mercedes-Benz in Stuttgart myself. First, the GT and the SL don't have much in common; one of the few shared components is the door. As for the SL 43, it has a 4-cylinder engine and also comes with all-wheel drive. And you can order the car with back seats and when you have them you can fold them down.

[carlrebeiro]

Sorry, Doug, you missed an important point. Rear seats are a no-cost option on the GT.

[TRNSPRTR]

There's actually 5 variants: AMG GT 43 with a Turbo-4, AMG GT 55 & 63 with two variants of the BiTurbo V8, AMG GT 63 Pro with an upgraded BiTurbo V8, fixed wing, more intakes, and more downforce, and the AMG GT 63 S E Performance with 803 horsepower

[JaredDixon]

Every manufacturer that moves the temperature and volume controls to a touch screen has lost the plot. This will be the scourge of 2018-2025 cars when we look back in the future.

I have to say that in recent times, Doug has dropped the effort and quality of information that he puts into his videos. In the first eight minutes of the video he states that the SL43 has a V6 (it doesn't, it only gets the 4 cylinder), furthermore he talks about the GT only being offered with 2 seats (also wrong, it is obviously a 2+2). Those are the kind of mistakes that Doug usually doesn't make. Pretty disappointing to see how little he seems to work on his videos nowadays.

[turkeysandwich]

Rear seats are available. Actually, the rear seats fold down and don’t have the partition barrier, ironically creating significantly more cargo area than the no rear seat option.

[legioner]

FINALLY, a new Mercedes that looks good. Gorgeous, I might say.

Doug is the kind of a guy who reviews $200K car in the parking lot behind International House of Pancakes

[devongee]

This was my dream car for like 8 minutes and then it went on a losing streak across YouTube against every single car in existence (this is a BRAND NEW model, everything else already BEEN here forever). Even a Hyundai, bro.

[agalk]

Surely this is more practical than the 718 spyder RS choose-your-own-adventure roof...

[lawrencewon]

I like it when Doug's test driving the car and not try to sound "fake" and "high energy". Just talk like a normal person, it's more enjoyable

[MusicodeDiosever]

Thank you Doug, I had a terrible day at work today. And watching this video put a smile in my face and made my day. For that I thank you 🙏🏽

[RADWALA]

AMG GT was released 10 years ago? I feel old. 👴

[Michaelwave]

3:30 the GT is also getting the 43 treatment with a turbo handcrafted inline 4. The SL doesnt have a v6 for the 43 it’s also the inline 4.

[sicqnuschannel]

Nice but same price as a Ferrari or an Aston. Worse, the new 911 is around 130 k.

The Merc is way too pricey.

[TorqueTestChannel]

It's 1, 000 lbs heavier than an AWD Porsche 911. That's why it needs 570hp, but I'm not sure what the solve is for the braking and corners that defines this category of sports car. BMW and Mercedes really seem to have lost the plot when it comes to sports car and sedans that soon wont be allowed on certain B roads due to commercial load limits.

[michaeldismukes]

I saw this car in Hillcrest this weekend. A kid was driving with the front spoiler down and he grounded out, and shaved off a quarter inch of it, got embarrassed and lit the tires!!! Lol.

[Future-Classic-Comics]

2:48 This is the first car I've seen since a classic 80's car with individual rear tail lights, no lense over them- if they were ringed in chrome that would have looked amazing!

[timothyzentz]

My friend watching this with me goes “You know?…. Sometimes the radio in my truck will work” 😂

[FrankieProkop]

Damn, the old one looks better. Noticeably better...
