Article Summary The new electric AMG GT 53 produces 536 hp and 590 lb-ft, reaching 60 mph in a claimed 3.4 seconds.
On the traditional sports-car side, the two-door AMG GT Coupe currently ranges from the four-cylinder GT 43 through the V8-powered GT 55 and GT 63.
Above those sit the 805-horsepower GT 63 S E Performance plug-in hybrid and more track-focused GT 63 Pro.
The AMG GT 53 Trades Power for RangeUnlike the GT 55 and GT 63, which use three axial-flux electric motors, the GT 53 relies on two permanently excited synchronous motors.
The GT 53 is expected to reach the U.S. in early 2027, following the GT 55’s arrival later this year.
