Sports-car genes meet Gran-Turismo attributes: The best of both worlds
The interior of the AMG GT 4‑Door Coupé is consistently focused on the driving experience. The low seating position, typical of a sports car and perfectly integrated into the overall vehicle, immediately conveys a focused, emotional driving sensation, familiar from models like the two-door Mercedes‑AMG GT. The entire operating philosophy is designed for intuitive control of all driving-relevant functions. This ensures that the focus remains where it belongs: on the driving experience.
AMG RACE ENGINEER delivers driving dynamics at the highest level
A key highlight of the interior design is in the centre console: three driving dynamics rotary controls allow the response, slip and cornering behaviour to be adjusted in an instant. They bring together key parameters of the vehicle’s character and give experienced drivers the highest level of vehicle control and driving pleasure:
- The “Response Control” dial coordinates the response of the electric motors to accelerator pedal commands.
- The “Agility Control” rotary control changes the agility around the vertical axis and thus the cornering behaviour.
- The “Traction Control” rotary control – used to control slip – influences the intervention of the traction control in nine stages.
The cockpit: Command centre for performance enthusiasts
The high-performance DNA of the new AMG GT 4-Door Coupé is reflected in the driver-oriented cockpit, which immediately invites you to drive off. The instrument panel is dominated by a wide display, which is divided into a driver-oriented area and a slightly offset passenger area. The razor-sharp driver displays, consisting of an instrument cluster (10.2″) and a multimedia monitor (14.0″), combine to form a seamless single unit.
The 14-inch multimedia monitor is ergonomically angled towards the driver, enabling optimum readability and intuitive operation. In addition, an exclusive passenger display (14.0″) with separate content is available. This allows the front passenger to immerse themselves in the sporty digital experience.
Large round air vents in a striking chain-link design blend harmoniously into the glass surface on the left and right. As part of the ambient lighting system, they shine in freely selectable colours in a night design. Galvanised air vents combine a solid metal look with a sophisticated high-tech aesthetic, creating a skilful connection between digital and analogue worlds.
The uniquely designed centre console combines aesthetics and functionality. It echoes the driver-oriented angle of the central display and includes an armrest with a closed storage compartment and two charging trays for inductive fast charging of smartphones. For intuitive usability, two illuminated cup holders are cleverly separated from the charging trays. The front part of the centre console is characterised by a winglet in a real metal look that rises three-dimensionally and encompasses the housing for the central air vent unit. With its simple nozzle design, this creates an exciting contrast to the two dominant outer vents on the instrument panel.
The front seats offer sportiness with pronounced lateral support
With their sporty, expressive design, the newly developed front seats offer high lateral support during dynamic cornering. The optional AMG Performance seats with integrated head restraints are even sportier. With their striking seatbacks, both seat variants emphasise the lightness typical of motorsport. Two backrest openings with galvanised inserts convey maximum sportiness in the performance seat and highlight its lightweight construction.
Numerous independent equipment concepts with exclusive, carefully selected colour combinations and trim elements offer a high degree of customisation options and thus meet even the highest demands of customers. The large selection of different seat covers reflects the entire spectrum – from performance-focused to comfort-oriented.
The Mercedes‑AMG GT 4‑Door Coupé continues the tradition of customisation options with the exclusive MANUFAKTUR programme. The programme offers customers a unique world of colours, materials and handcrafted surfaces.
The AMG Performance steering wheel with haptic feedback
The AMG Performance steering wheel, which is flattened at the bottom and perfectly contoured, features roller and rocker switches. It is available with a variety of high-quality steering wheel rims, from supple leather to lightweight carbon fibre and non-slip MICROCUT microfibre. The steering wheel paddles allow for precise control of recuperation – maximum control in the hands of the driver.
The two round AMG steering wheel buttons impress with their intuitive operation, brilliant colour LCD displays and modern icons. This allows important driving functions and the various driving programmes to be controlled at lightning speed – without taking your eyes off the road. They are operated by turning the adjustment ring or pressing the display button. The selected setting is shown on the high-resolution display integrated directly into the respective button – information exactly where you need it.
The rear seat: Comfort on four wheels
The rear seat is designed with comfortable, contoured individual seats for two people as standard. Two recesses in the floor create generous legroom and allow for a naturally comfortable knee angle. Rear seat passengers not only enjoy a comfortable upright seating position but also pleasant headroom – comfort that can be felt in every inch. A practical three-seater bench is available as an option. In both cases, the rear seat backrests can be folded down separately, allowing for flexible interior design as required.
The panoramic glass roof: “SKY CONTROL” with spectacular AMG lighting
The one-piece panoramic glass roof contributes to the airy feeling of space – a window to the sky. The generous glass surface extends to the rear window and can be switched between transparent and non-transparent. For this purpose, the panoramic roof is divided into individually switchable segments. Customers can thus decide according to their personal preferences how much light and visibility they want to let in.
At night, the roof can be transformed into a sparkling canvas with a unique lighting display: illuminated AMG emblems above the driver and front passenger's heads and motorsport-inspired racing stripes across the entire roof surface shine in colours that match the ambient lighting of the entire vehicle.
For intelligent protection against solar radiation, the glass surface is made of heat-insulating laminated safety glass as standard, with an infrared-reflective coating and an ultra-thin low-emissivity (LowE) coating on the inside. This prevents the interior from heating up in summer and keeps temperatures pleasant. In winter, the LowE coating reduces heat loss by reflecting the interior heat back into the cabin. A carbon-look ultra-lightweight roof is available for performance purists in certain markets.
Ambient lighting: lighting design that touches the senses
The sophisticated ambient lighting plays another role in ensuring a feeling of well-being inside the new AMG GT 4‑Door Coupé. A continuous light strip on the upper level of the instrument panel surrounds the interior like an elegant frame and illuminates the generous spaciousness of the interior with soft light. In addition, the ambient lighting harmoniously connects the instrument panel with the doors, creating a continuous lighting experience.
High-resolution, atmospheric ambient styles can be selected as mood-enhancing background motifs for the displays. The colour scheme of the instrument cluster, the controls and the ambient lighting are perfectly matched to these motifs. This allows passengers to create their own personal atmospheres in the vehicle. The screen design impresses with its exceptional aesthetics, precision and intuitive operation.
Elegant door design in the interior
With their free-floating armrests, the door panels are tidy and elegant. The most important functions of the door interior controls and electric windows are integrated into the sculpture of the pull handle. The door centre panel, with its flowing diamond quilting design, deliberately picks up on a theme from the world of historic racing. The seat adjustment control element, in the form of a miniature seat, is ergonomically positioned within the diamond quilting and above the armrest segment. With their horizontal line structure, the speaker surrounds blend perfectly into the harmonious design and are manufactured to the same high standard of quality and precision. In the Burmester® 3D sound system, they are made of shiny stainless steel – a treat for the eyes and ears.
The MBUX infotainment system: Intelligent and intuitive
The user interfaces and the state-of-the-art Mercedes‑Benz User Experience (MBUX) in the Mercedes‑AMG GT 4-Door Coupé are emotional and intuitive to use. They are based on the Group's new Mercedes-Benz Operating System (MB.OS). This deeply integrated software-to-cloud architecture intelligently networks and controls all control units and functions.
There are various newly developed display styles to choose from, enabling a personalised driving experience. The “AMG Special” style offers four different sub-screens. The “AMG TRACK PACE” display style shows telemetry data, acceleration values or race data depending on the situation. The selection is complemented by the timeless "Classic" style with various submenus such as current consumption or the navigation map.
