The new Mercedes-AMG GT R in all its 'AMG green hell magno' glory
28 Jun 2016|2,212 views
From the world's most demanding racetrack directly onto the road, never before has Mercedes-AMG packed so much motorsport technology into a production vehicle than into the new AMG GT R.
The front-mid-engine concept with transaxle, the twin-turbo V8 engine rated at 577bhp, the extensively modified suspension, the new aerodynamics and the intelligent lightweight construction lay the foundations for an especially dynamic driving experience. Even from afar, the exclusive 'AMG green hell magno' special paintwork leaves no doubt as to the sports car's origin, having spent most of its development time in the 'Green Hell' of the Nurburgring racetrack.
Wider front and rear wings allow an increased track width for optimum grip and even higher cornering speeds. The new front fascia with active elements, the large rear aerofoil and the new rear fascia with double diffuser enhance aerodynamic efficiency and help ensure optimum grip. The lightweight forged wheels shod with cup tyres as standard are likewise designed for maximum driving dynamics.
The same applies to other new features such as the active rear-wheel steering, the nine-way adjustable traction control system and the adjustable coilover suspension with additional electronic control. What's more, the new AMG Panamericana grille emphasises the unique standing of the AMG GT R. Its characteristic form with vertical fins celebrated its world premiere on the Mercedes-AMG GT3 customer-sport racing car, and now for the first time features on an AMG production vehicle.
