Mercedes-AMG GT XX Concept Channels Hypercar Power in a Sedan Shell

The Mercedes-AMG GT XX Concept is a four-door electric sedan with hypercar-level performance. Based on AMG's specialised electric platform, it produces more than 1,340bhp with a tri-motor configuration. While incorporating elements such as fast-charging battery technology, active aero elements, and a practical, environmentally conscious interior, the design draws inspiration from the iconic C111 and AMG ONE. With features like electroluminescent lighting and direct-cooled cylindrical cells, the GT XX provides a preview of AMG's electric future.

Mercedes-AMG GT XX Concept: Performance

The GT XX is powered by the AMG Electric Architecture (AMG.EA), housing a triple-motor setup with two rear and one front motor that uses axial flux technology. These motors were created in partnership with YASA and are substantially more powerful and compact than conventional radial motors, enabling higher power density and efficiency without adding extra weight.

Together, they produce over 1,340bhp, propelling the GT XX to speeds beyond 359km/h. At the heart of this setup is an F1-derived high-voltage battery featuring direct-cooled cylindrical cells. This innovation maintains optimal thermal stability during extreme driving, enabling consistent output and ultra-fast charging. Thanks to its 800V system, the car can add around 400 km of range in just five minutes, making it as practical as it is powerful.

Mercedes-AMG GT XX Concept: Design Details

By fusing cutting-edge aerodynamics, innovative lighting, and heritage cues, the Mercedes-AMG GT XX offers a dramatic evolution of performance styling. Its streamlined, coupe-like shape, stretched bonnet, and bright orange finish project a decidedly modern identity while reinterpreting the essence of the experimental C111.

Upright primary headlamps and geometric auxiliary lights surround the concave AMG grille with the central star emblem on the front. A sharply curved front splitter with air-channeling curtains and sculpted hood vents are examples of strategic airflow elements that enhance thermal dynamics and aerodynamic performance.

The GT XX adorns MBUX Fluid Light Paint on the lower panels along the flanks. Furthermore, the car has 21-inch wheels with dynamically adjusting active aero blades for cooling and reducing drag. Six circular taillights are connected at the back by a sophisticated MBUX light strip with over 700 RGB LEDs that can communicate with the surroundings and display animations. A Venturi tunnel diffuser, smooth underbody, and adaptive front aero shutters contribute to the car's impressive drag coefficient of 0.198.

Mercedes-AMG GT XX Concept: Interior Theme and Features

The interior redefines what a performance cockpit looks like by fusing cutting-edge materials, environmentally friendly design, and motorsport heritage. Its orange, silver, and black design creates a striking, futuristic ambience that is focused on the driver.

Deep-set carbon-fibre seats are covered in LABFIBER Biotech Leather Alternative and have 3D-printed ergonomic padding integrated into them. AMG's transition to biotechnology-driven interior finishes is further demonstrated by the inclusion of LABFIBER Biotech Silk Alternative in the door grips.

Coming to the feature suite, a 10.4-inch digital instrument panel and a 14-inch infotainment unit are central to the advanced layout. Both are powered by the MBUX system. With animated graphics that monitor motor output as well as energy flow, the interface is optimised for EV performance. Integrated LED strips on the AMG ONE-style steering yoke display performance and battery indicators in real time.
