500-HP Line Crossed by Mercedes AMG GT
More and more visual information appears on GT of Mercedes-AMG line-up.
Teaser of the vehicle, even if it does not fully correspond to its name due to repetitions from the video released earlier, manages to focus on the goal of stirring viewers’ interest. Sports car which is soon to see the world in flesh is meant to take the niche of SLS AMG in its flagship duty. Note: “soon” applies to 4 months period preceding the autumn Paris event.
Blind substitution does not become the famous German carmaker. Thus, to differentiate AMG GT from the previous flagman, the brand is willing to price it more modestly and change the sales geography. Regarding the technical info, it is known that the vehicle will try out the 8-cylinder bi-turbo with the displacement of 4.0 litres recently developed by Mercedes. If everything sticks to truth, standard AMG GT will deliver the output of 503 hp and torque of 479 lb-ft. Injection system of the car is to be taken to an advanced level. Special material has been used to make friction of cylinder barrels less. Head of this detail is made of aluminium processed with the help of zirconium. Dry sump lubrication is applied to make the work of the engine even smoother.
It looks like Mercedes does have a right to call its newest sports product a revolutionary pinnacle of engineering thought.
