2021 Mercedes-AMG GT price and specs

There’s a new entry point to the Mercedes-AMG GT range… but don’t call it entry-level.

Mercedes-AMG has added a new ‘Night Edition’ to the GT range, priced from $294,200 before on-road costs.

It sits below the GT C Coupe in the range, and is priced in line with the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S or Carrera S Cabriolet.

New for 2021 is a more powerful take on Mercedes-AMG’s twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 engine. With 390kW, it’s up 40kW on the car on the previous entry-level model.

Just 15 will be offered in Australia, although the GT C and GT R models carry on.

All prices exclude on-road costs.

Engines

Power across the 2021 Mercedes-AMG GT range comes from a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine.

In the entry GT Night Edition, it outputs 390kW of power and 670Nm of torque.

Moving to the GT C ups power to 410kW and torque to 680Nm, while the range-topping GT R has 430kW and 700Nm.

All models are rear-wheel drive, and have a seven-speed automatic transmission.

The GT Night Edition hits 100km/h in 3.8 seconds, the GT C does the sprint in 3.7 seconds, and the GT R hits 100km/h in 3.6 seconds.

Fuel Economy

The Mercedes-AMG GT uses a claimed 11.5L/100km on the combined cycle, as does the GT C.

The AMG GT R drops that to 11.4L/100km on the combined cycle.

Dimensions

The Mercedes-AMG GT measures 4551mm long, 1996mm wide and 1261mm tall, with a 2630mm wheelbase.

The GT R is 1284mm tall, but otherwise identical dimensionally. Boot space is 175 litres.

Servicing and Warranty

The Mercedes-AMG GT is backed by a five-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty.
