2024 Mercedes-AMG® GT Review: Trim Level Comparisons

The 2024 Mercedes-AMG GT is a remarkable blend of luxury, performance, and cutting-edge technology. This year’s model introduces four distinct trim levels: GT55, GT63, GT63 S E Performance, and GT63 Pro.

Each trim offers a unique driving experience, catering to a range of preferences from everyday comfort to track-ready performance.

GT55: The Perfect Balance of Power and Comfort

The GT55 trim is designed for those who want a harmonious blend of power and everyday usability. It features a robust 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine, producing 469 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque.

This is the first time the AMG® GT lineup includes all-wheel drive (AWD) as a standard, offering improved traction and stability. The GT55 provides a smoother ride with its comfort-tuned suspension, making it ideal for both city driving and long-distance journeys.

The GT55’s interior is crafted with high-quality materials and includes advanced tech features, ensuring every drive is both comfortable and connected.

GT63: Elevated Performance with Precision Handling

Stepping up to the GT63, drivers are treated to an enhanced performance package. This trim retains the same 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine but boosts power to 577 horsepower and 590 lb-ft of torque.

The GT63 also comes standard with AWD, but it distinguishes itself with a stiffer suspension setup, which includes active roll stabilization and rear-wheel steering. These enhancements significantly improve handling dynamics, making the GT63 a more agile choice for those who crave a sporty driving experience.

Inside, you’ll find a similar luxury finish as the GT55, but with additional performance-focused elements such as sport seats and a more driver-centric cockpit design.

GT63 S E Performance: A Hybrid Marvel

The GT63 S E Performance is where traditional combustion power meets hybrid innovation. This model combines the potent 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 with an electric motor, delivering a staggering 805 horsepower and 1,047 lb-ft of torque.

This makes it the most powerful variant in the lineup. With a 0-62 mph time of just 2.8 seconds, the GT63 S E Performance is built for speed enthusiasts who also value technological innovation.

The plug-in hybrid system allows for a limited all-electric range, ideal for reducing emissions during city driving. Additionally, it features rapid energy recovery, ensuring that the vehicle is always ready to deliver peak performance.

GT63 Pro: The Ultimate Track-Ready AMG®

For drivers who want a car that’s at home on the track, the GT63 Pro is the ultimate choice. It features an enhanced version of the 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine, generating 604 horsepower and 627 lb-ft of torque.

The GT63 Pro comes equipped with an aerodynamic package, additional cooling systems, and a more aggressive suspension setup, providing the stability and cooling required for intense track conditions.

Its interior is streamlined for performance, focusing on reducing weight while maximizing driver engagement with every control within easy reach.

Exterior and Interior Differences Across Trims

While all trim levels of the 2024 Mercedes-AMG® GT maintain the sleek, aggressive design synonymous with the AMG® GT nameplate, subtle differences set each trim apart.

The GT63 and GT63 Pro feature more aerodynamic elements, like a rear spoiler and larger air intakes, enhancing both aesthetics and performance. Inside, each trim offers a distinct experience. The GT55 and GT63 focus on comfort and luxury, with plush materials and advanced infotainment systems.

In contrast, the GT63 S E Performance and GT63 Pro emphasize performance, featuring sportier, more functional interiors.
