AMG GT SUV: 1153 hk och laddspecifikationer som får håret att resa sig
2026-10-17 • Kategori: Fordon
TL;DR: AMG:s nya el-SUV levererar över 1100 hk och imponerande laddhastigheter, med 48 kWh på bara 5 minuter.
The AMG GT SUV packs up to 1,153 hp, with three versions arriving in the U.S. in summer 2027. GT 55 and GT 63 models promise 10–80% charging in 12 minutes, with peak power reaching 710 kW. A larger battery and active suspension that controls pitch, not just roll, set the SUV apart from the GT 4-Door. Mercedes unveiled the high-riding sibling of the AMG GT 4-Door EV on Saturday, simply called the AMG GT SUV. It has enough horsepower to get your groceries home unreasonably quickly, but its most impressive trick might happen while it’s not moving at all. Mercedes claims this electric heavyweight can add 48 kilowatt-hours of energy in five minutes. Like the 4-Door, the new GT SUV is a bespoke AMG model. It’s built on the same AMG.EA platform, but with a bigger battery, higher peak charging power, and uprated suspension. Three versions will reach U.S. dealerships starting next summer: the GT53, GT55, and GT63. All have variable all-wheel drive and can mechanically disconnect their front motors to improve efficiency. The GT 53 gets a two-speed rear transmission, while the three-motor versions don’t. Instead, they can control each rear wheel independently, enabling some ultra-sharp torque-vectoring control for hard cornering.

Six circular taillights give the rear a family resemblance to the four-door, while frameless side windows add a coupe-like touch. Inside, a 14-inch central touchscreen angles toward the driver and pairs with a 10.2-inch instrument display, plus an optional second 14-inch screen for the passenger. The chunky center console houses three rotary driving controls, and the panoramic glass roof can switch between transparent and opaque, with illuminated AMG patterns visible at night. Even with a higher peak charging power rating, though, the four-door’s claimed 11-minute 10–80% time remains shorter. The SUV needs 12 minutes because it has more battery to fill. On a 400-kW charger, Mercedes quotes 16 minutes. The GT 53 retains the four-door’s smaller battery and 600-kW peak, promising 10–80% in 11 minutes (adding up to 41 kWh in five minutes or 70 kWh in ten), or 14 minutes at 400 kW. All versions support 11-kW AC charging, NACS in America, and automatic switching to 400 volts for compatible DC stations. Its claimed WLTP range is 371–415 miles. The entry-level model uses two synchronous motors that produce 536 peak horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque, with a continuous output of 362 hp. Mercedes estimates this variant can go from 0–60 mph in 4.1 seconds, 0–124 mph in 14.6 seconds, and reach a top speed of 143 mph. The GT 55 switches to three axial-flux motors delivering a combined 805 peak hp and 1,372 lb-ft, with 711 hp available continuously. The dash to 60 mph takes 3 seconds, and it reaches 124 mph in 9.9 seconds, with an optional 168-mph top speed (standard is 143 mph).

That cuts the estimated 0–60 mph time to 2.6 seconds and 0–124 mph to 7.2 seconds, with the raised 168-mph top speed as standard. The GT 55 and GT 63 get 128 kWh of usable capacity, versus the four-door’s 106 kWh. Peak charging rises from 600 to 710 kW, and Mercedes says it can add 83 kWh in ten minutes at an average power of about 498 kW. Both versions are targeting a WLTP range of 385–435 miles (620–700 kilometers). The new Active Ride Control+ suspension adds active pitch stabilization to roll control, resisting nose-dive under braking and lift under acceleration. It’s standard on the GT 63 and optional on the GT 55, as are carbon-ceramic brakes. All variants get standard six-degree rear steering.

Rotary controls adjust response, handling, and traction just like in the four-door, while predictive track software allocates power around a circuit. It saves energy where full power isn’t needed, such as downhill sections and tight corners, so more is available for uphill stretches and long straights. AMG has spent decades instilling in buyers that excess is worth paying for. Going electric gives it new ways to make that argument, but the price (still unannounced) will tell us how ambitious it’s feeling. For reference, the AMG GT 4-Door EV starts at €115,430 for the GT 53 in Germany and rises to €196,350 for the GT 63; U.S. pricing has not yet been announced. We want your opinion!
