The new Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door\u2019s interior is dominated by screens"},"content":{"rendered":"<div data-testid=\"HtmlContent\" class=\"MarkUpWrapper-sc-t20i90-0 hQwWlJ\">\n<p>Mercedes-AMG is preparing a fully electric GT-style four-door performance coupe called the Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe. Snappy title, likely head-snapping performance, if the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.topgear.com\/car-news\/first-look\/meet-223mph-concept-amg-gt-xx-a-1340bhp-ev-previews-merc-amgs-e-hypercar\" data-entity-type=\"external\">Concept AMG GT XX<\/a> that previewed it is anything to go by.<\/p>\n<p>And today, we learn the inside of this shiny, electric AMG is absolutely dominated by screens. Two of them. No, three of them, if you tick an option box. One\u2019s a 10.2in instrument cluster for the driver, then comes a 14in multimedia screen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"HtmlContent\" class=\"MarkUpWrapper-sc-t20i90-0 hQwWlJ\">\n<p>That\u2019s there to handle all of the AMG\u2019s multimedia functions, angled slightly towards the driver for \u201coptimum readability and intuitive operation\u201d. Then comes a <em>third<\/em> screen \u2013 optional \u2013 for the passenger, measuring 14in and there to allow \u201cthe front passenger to immerse themselves in the sporty digital experience\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, despite \u2018dominating\u2019 the dashboard, these screens take second billing in AMG\u2019s literature, because what it\u2019s focused on are the three rotary dials that change the 4-Door Coupe\u2019s dynamics.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"HtmlContent\" class=\"MarkUpWrapper-sc-t20i90-0 hQwWlJ\">\n<p>\u2018Response Control\u2019 is there to adjust how the electric motors respond to accelerator inputs, \u2018Agility Control\u2019 changes the car\u2019s cornering behaviour, while \u2018Traction Control\u2019 changes the setting of the sunroof. Kidding! It is of course a nine-stage slip control setting.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of much slip, the seats are specially bolstered for lateral support during what AMG describes as \u201cdynamic cornering\u201d, there\u2019s a special AMG steering wheel with buttons, \u201ccomfortable\u201d and \u201ccontoured\u201d rear seats tailored for two (or the option for three), and \u2013 yes \u2013 a switchable panoramic glass roof.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"HtmlContent\" class=\"MarkUpWrapper-sc-t20i90-0 hQwWlJ\">\n<p>So if you want to block out the sun, you can turn the roof into a giant advert for the company you\u2019ve just bought your car from. Outside that, it\u2019s what you\u2019d expect from a luxury, expensive and likely extraordinarily powerful Mercedes. Diamond quilting. Posh lights. A world of optional materials and trims.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of much performance, we don\u2019t yet know what AMG\u2019s cooking up for this 4-Door, but the GT XX concept (below) landed with a 1,340bhp, tri-motor thud. That concept \u2013 which of course previewed this new arrival \u2013 got 800V architecture, stupendously fast-charging, and a stupendously fast top speed of 223mph.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully, the new production car will get a stupendous soundtrack, too. Late last year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.topgear.com\/car-news\/interview\/amgs-electric-supersaloon-will-have-a-v8-soundtrack-and-fake-gearshifts\" data-entity-type=\"external\">AMG boss Michael Schiebe told TopGear.com<\/a> the 4-Door will come with a fake V8 soundtrack (along with fake gearshifts, too).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have a very strong history and heritage with our V8s,\u201d he said. \u201cYou know, one man to one engine, the sound etc. This is why at the very beginning of the development of the AMG.EA architecture we already thought that we need to have great sound and a combustion-like drive mode.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"HtmlContent\" class=\"MarkUpWrapper-sc-t20i90-0 hQwWlJ\">\n<\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"HtmlContent\" class=\"MarkUpWrapper-sc-t20i90-0 hQwWlJ\">\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mercedes-AMG is preparing a fully electric GT-style four-door performance coupe called the Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe.
