2025 Mercedes-AMG GT 63 Pro 4Matic+ Combines 603 Horsepower And Active Aero
Mercedes-AMG has expanded its GT portfolio with the introduction of the new GT 63 Pro 4Matic+ at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. With its performance-focused design, it is said to provide a “even sportier driving experience.”
The GT 63 Pro 4Matic+, which is scheduled for release in the US in 2019, stands apart thanks to its muscular front fascia with bigger intakes and more carbon fiber deflectors. Other notable features include an active AirPanel air control system that contributes to a front axle aerodynamic lift reduction of about 66 lbs (29.9 kg).
The coupe includes more underbody air deflectors that resemble those on the One hypercar in addition to a fixed rear wing. These are only two of the upgrades. A standard carbon fiber package that includes side skirts, a rear diffuser, and a front splitter further enhances the sporty appearance.
The vehicle is equipped with Michelin Pilot Sport 5 or Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tires on 21-inch forged alloy wheels. The high-performance braking system, which comes with the “largest standard ceramic brake discs currently available from Mercedes-AMG,” supports the tire you select. Six-piston calipers are used to grip them, and they measure 16.5 inches (419 mm) up front.
AMG Performance seats and a sport steering wheel covered in leather and microfiber are features of the GT 63 Pro 4Matic+. A 11.9-inch infotainment system, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, and an optional back seat join them.
A 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo engine producing 603 horsepower (450 kW / 611 PS) and 627 lb-ft (849 Nm) of torque powers the vehicle. That is 37 lb-ft (50 Nm) and 26 horsepower (19 kW / 26 PS) more than the GT 63.
A fully variable all-wheel drive system receives power from the engine via a nine-speed transmission. With this configuration, the coupe can reach a top speed of 197 mph (317 km/h) and accelerate from 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) in about 3.1 seconds.
In order to improve cooling efficiency and track performance, the car has two additional radiators, demonstrating that performance is not limited to the engine. There are also top-mounted radiators for the front and rear differentials, as well as an active cooling system for the transfer case. In order to “optimize airflow to the brakes, which increases durability and prevents excessive brake temperatures,” designers also made adjustments to the brake cover plates and underbody air vanes. Active ride control and active rear axle steering complete the features.
