During his final year in 2014, he even created his own car magazine from scratch u2013 which you can still read right here u2013 and achieved a 2:1 Batcheloru2019s Degree.nnnnJake then cut his teeth working for Dennis Publishingu2019s automotive titles Carbuyer and Auto Express for two years; time at the former taught him how to drive a website content system like he stole it, and the latter refined his news writing skills.nnnnAt CAR, itu2019s his job to know whatu2019s happening at all times in the automotive industry, react to breaking news stories and direct CARu2019s team as to how to approach news content both in print and online. He interviews industry executives to either get the scoop or help flesh out a story happening in the automotive world around us, attends press conferences and events to get the story from on the ground and investigates the latest technologies being developed for and by the car industry.nnnnJake writes mostly about new car reveals, wider industry stories and articles surrounding electric cars.

Heu2019s also the custodian of the CAR newsletter, keeping you up to date with everything thatu2019s happened in the world of CAR.nnnnWhen heu2019s not driving, Jake is a big gamer. As well as hammering racing games, Jake spends a lot of his time on role-playing games and gets his real geek on with simulation games like city builders on the PC. When heu2019s not in the digital universe, heu2019s usually seen building the latest Lego kit or buying a new pair of trainers u2013 even if his house is rapidly running out of space to fit any more of either.nnnnOn social media, Jakeu2019s Instagram profile is filled with all of the cars heu2019s been lucky enough to drive over the years, and you can follow him on X (nu00E9e Twitter).

The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carmagazine.co.uk\/car-news\/first-official-pictures\/mercedes-benz\/amg-gt-xx\/\">GT XX prototype<\/a> that previewed the technology that lies beneath the new AMG GT four-door also pointed us in the general direction of how it would be designed. But some of this is still a lot to swallow.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/480x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-23.jpg?scale=down\" alt class=\"wp-image-263373\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/480x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-23.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/720x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-23.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/1040x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-23.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>Its look has evolved from the GT XX development mule with the production car\u2019s face being slightly less dopey-eyed catfish than the XX model but more angry basking shark, albeit with a \u2018grille\u2019 that\u2019s blanked-off (the GT XX\u2019s was real and functionally useful) and optionally backlit vertical strakes that look like venting. Its stance is certainly more aggressive and a little less cab-rear than the XX, with some properly intricate wheel designs and a remarkably low ride height despite the battery pack being under the floor. It\u2019s 5094mm long, 1959mm wide and 1411mm tall, making it longer and a smidge taller than a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carmagazine.co.uk\/car-reviews\/porsche\/taycan-gts\/\">Taycan<\/a> but a similar footprint to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carmagazine.co.uk\/car-reviews\/lotus\/emeya-saloon\/\">Lotus Emeya<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s perhaps most challenging to look at is that rear end. It almost looks like the visor from a pair of ski googles, with a large dark-colour panel blunting the car\u2019s backside. A pair of three circular taillights each with their own three-pointed star inside are a badly translated carry-over from the XX here, but the production-spec GT benefits from active aerodynamics that shapeshift the car\u2019s silhouette just like the XX did.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject show-for-medium-up hide-for-xlarge-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/480x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-26.jpg?scale=down\" alt class=\"wp-image-263376\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/480x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-26.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/720x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-26.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/1040x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-26.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>As well as some active air dams inset into the front bumper and an active rear spoiler that lifts and changes angle depending on speed, complex air channels run underneath the car enables a motorsport-spec venturi effect. \u2018Where it gets really interesting, though, is that we\u2019ve added an active rear diffuser \u2013 we think that\u2019s a world first,\u2019 says GT project manager, Oliver Ganzmann. He adds that this is an aerodynamic trick that\u2019s been brought over from both the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carmagazine.co.uk\/car-news\/first-official-pictures\/mercedes-benz\/vision-eqxx\/\">Vision EQ XX<\/a> \u2013 the low-drag, super-slippery and efficient prototype that has repeatedly clocked more than one thousand kilometres on a single battery charge \u2013 as well as the GT XX. When fully receded, the diffuser is designed for maximum aerodynamic efficiency but, when fully extended, its aim shifts to focus on high-speed stability. It deploys automatically at 74mph (so it\u2019s a good marker for if you\u2019re speeding in the UK\u2026) or can be manually deployed in the car.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Speaking of the interior\u2026<\/h2>\n<p>A lot of this will be largely unsurprising in here. It\u2019s a proper performance car interior with plenty of microfibre upholstery, a chunky steering wheel beset with AMG\u2019s usual suite of customisable switches, thickly bolstered performance seats and a shallow glasshouse that almost gives the impression it\u2019s a two-door.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject show-for-medium-up hide-for-xlarge-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/480x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-27.jpg?scale=down\" alt class=\"wp-image-263377\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/480x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-27.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/720x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-27.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/1040x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-27.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<p>The GT four-door includes three big displays inset into its dashboard panel running an AMG-reskinned version of MBUX, which comes complete with a bunch of performance car graphics and design details.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the only unique thing about the GT four-door\u2019s interior is the trio of switches on the centre console that are designed to alter the car\u2019s dynamics to suit the situation. The software running it is named AMG Race Engineer, which enables direct access to every facet of the car\u2019s handling attributes and gives you control of details like power delivery, braking, recuperation and body control.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">And\u2026 more power than an AMG One?<\/h2>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>1153bhp to be precise, so long as you choose the more powerful AMG GT63 version.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s enabled by a trio of axial flux electric motors designed and manufactured by Mercedes subsidiary Yasa, with one on the front and two on the rear. That enormous power figure allows this four-door GT to accelerate to 62mph in 2.1 seconds and a 0-124mph speed over with in 6.4 seconds. There is also a GT55 variant (pictured in white) that has to deal with a piffling 805bhp but, even then, this model can still sprint to 62mph in 2.5 seconds.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject show-for-medium-up hide-for-xlarge-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/480x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-33.jpg?scale=down\" alt class=\"wp-image-263383\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/480x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-33.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/720x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-33.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/1040x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-33.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Claus Schulte-C\u00f6rne, head of e-drive at AMG, says: \u2018axial flux motors have about 70 per cent less length and overall volume, but our power and torque density is two, maybe three times higher [than a conventional radial motor used by almost all other EVs on the road].\u2019 AMG engineers claim better reliability, but their much smaller size means they\u2019re also easier to repair \u2013\u00a0and better for heat dissipation. \u2018In a regular motor, the rotor is deep inside a large housing,\u2019 says Schulte-C\u00f6rne, \u2018so you cannot get any heat transfer.

It\u2019s all connected via an 800-volt electrical architecture for extreme charging speeds, with AMG\u2019s engineers claiming a peak DC speed of 600kW. A 10 to 80 per cent charge would be done in 11 minutes at that max rate, with Mercedes working with Alpitronic to roll out chargers capable of such rates via its own growing network around the world.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>To handle all the power and torque, GT four-doors come standard with rear-wheel steering, AMG-spec semi-active roll stabilisation and carbon ceramic front brakes.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">And it sounds like a V8?!<\/h2>\n<p>That\u2019s perhaps the most interesting bit \u2013 a bit of technology called AMGForce. It\u2019s a party piece for the GT four-door that acts a lot like Hyundai\u2019s N Shift technology. Paddles on the steering wheel adjust the level of regeneration by default but, when in S+ mode, AMGForce activates and turns your silent EV into a grand tourer that seemingly has a classic AMG V8 under the bonnet and simulated \u2018gears\u2019 to match.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It\u2019s all about the emotion now, and sound in particular is so important for Mercedes-AMG customers, so we hired the best sound talents with many coming from the music industry,\u2019 says Scheibe, to the point that he says AMG developed its own \u2018ministry of sound\u2019 to accurately develop sounds with cross-department teams.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/480x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-28.jpg?scale=down\" alt class=\"wp-image-263378\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/480x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-28.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/720x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-28.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/263368\/1040x0\/amg-gt-four-door-2026-28.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject show-for-medium-up hide-for-xlarge-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>The result is convincing; pressing the throttle elicits a deep, bellowing bark from speakers built into the car that\u2019s audible both inside and out.

The paddles work like a dual-clutch transmission, enabling you to \u2018shift\u2019 gears with a corresponding torque dip from the e-motors; the only difference between this and Hyundai\u2019s technology is there is no synthetic redline that cuts power here.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When and how much?<\/h2>\n<p>AMG says you\u2019ll be able to order a new GT four-door very soon, with production starting in the summer of 2026.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<aside class=\"about-author\">\n<h2 class=\"about-author-heading\">About the author<\/h2>\n<div class=\"about-author-inner\">\n<div class=\"main-author-summary-container\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"main-author-image\" href=\"https:\/\/www.carmagazine.co.uk\/author\/jake-groves\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"background-image: url(https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/14234\/120x120\/jg5.jpg?quality=90)\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"main-author-name-container\">\n<div class=\"main-author-name\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carmagazine.co.uk\/author\/jake-groves\/\">Jake Groves<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"main-author-job-title\">News Editor<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"main-author-byline\">Jake has been an automotive journalist since 2015, joining CAR as Staff Writer in 2017.
