GT (C190) Mercedes quietly announces AMG GT-Convertible and GT- Coupe(4door)

Saw the live feed on FB what a beast and its the new EQ + which will do 0-100 below 3 seconds.

They even turned it on and sounded like a beast.

Sadly no interior pictures and no idea to when we will see the prdouction version.

I wonder if the production version will be semi electric like in this concept. I remembered reading somewhere that the first eq car will be a GLC size suv

The GLC based SUV will be a full battery powered electric vehicle meanwhile this one is a performance hybrid

Black glass probably means no interior reveal and thus AMG GT interior carry over. Which would be a mistake after the amazing job Porsche has done with the Panny interior.

I wasn't sure of it at first. But the more I look at it the more I love it. Love the aggressive front and the pronounced hip. It looks very lean from the front yet muscular from the rear.

This makes some sense because the new M256 I6 engine will have lots of potential to enhance the electric side of performance

I see tesla in it for the moment,it's not a good thing.But I think it need some getting used to.

Yes, it certainly incorporates some of the elements found on the Tesla S and Porsche Panamera II. And yet, I find it far more visually attractive than the aforementioned.

No, this is not a true Mercedes.

I see it like: Tesla shape, Mustang GT front and Panamera back, plus few MB design elements.
Actually the whole thing with "Sensual Purity" invented by Mercedes is BS, it's the Porsche DNA.

The production version will look good but I hope they will not use AMG GT interior, is quite dated.

Is there an interior?

Is there an interior?

Yes, it's very similar to the BMW M1 Hommage interior.

You mean it's an E63 6er?

What is BMW creative marketing doing here? Do they not have a car show to spin as their best ever??? Oh, wait never mind...

They don't have anything at Geneva, so this is what you get
