Electric performance four-door coupe in a dark urban setting

AMG GT 4-Door EV: 0-60, Specs & Charging

Mercedes-AMG revealed the production electric GT 4-Door Coupé in May 2026, with series production starting in summer 2026 in Sindelfingen, Germany. It is the first production car built on AMG's dedicated high-performance EV platform, AMG.EA, and the top GT 63 4MATIC+ variant claims up to 1,153 hp and 0-100 km/h in 2.1 seconds. Here is what is confirmed — and where the marketing numbers need a footnote.

Concept vs. Production: Don't Confuse the Two

There are two different vehicles in the headlines, and they are easy to mix up:

This article is about the production car. The concept's bigger numbers (1,341 hp, 850 kW) did not all carry over.

AMG GT 4-Door EV 0-60 mph and Acceleration

Mercedes-AMG quotes the GT 63 4MATIC+ at 0-100 km/h in 2.1 seconds and 0-200 km/h in 6.4 seconds. Two important caveats:

First, 0-100 km/h is 0-62 mph, not 0-60 mph. A true 0-60 mph time would be slightly quicker — likely around 2.0 seconds — but no independently tested 0-60 mph figure has been published yet, so treat any exact 0-60 number as an estimate.

Second, that 2.1-second figure is a best-case number. Peak power of 860 kW (1,153 hp) is only unlocked via AMG Launch Control with the battery at 80% state of charge or higher. At lower charge, the GT 63 runs closer to its continuous output of around 711 hp and will not replicate the headline run. This is the classic manufacturer-claim-versus-reality gap: peak power is conditional, 0-100 km/h is not 0-60 mph, and state of charge, temperature, and surface all move the real number. When owners get cars, a GPS timer is how you verify the 2-second claim against an actual measured 0-60.

| Spec | GT 55 4MATIC+ | GT 63 4MATIC+ | |------|---------------|---------------| | Peak power | 805 hp / 600 kW | 1,153 hp / 860 kW (Launch Control, 80%+ SoC) | | Continuous power | ~503 hp / 375 kW | ~711 hp / 530 kW | | 0-100 km/h | sub-3 s (~2.8 s cited) | 2.1 s | | 0-200 km/h | — | 6.4 s | | Top speed | 186 mph (300 km/h)* | 186 mph (300 km/h)* | | Battery | 106 kWh | 106 kWh | | WLTP range | up to ~435 mi | up to ~432 mi | | Architecture | 800 V | 800 V | | Peak DC charge | 600 kW | 600 kW | | Curb weight | ~2,460 kg | ~2,460 kg |

Powertrain: A Tri-Motor Axial-Flux Setup

The GT 4-Door uses three motors — one on the front axle and two on the rear — based on compact axial-flux units (YASA-derived) in AMG's HP.EDU drive units. The GT 63 makes up to 1,169 PS (1,153 hp / 860 kW) peak and around 1,475 lb-ft of torque, delivered to all four wheels from zero rpm.

Three axial-flux motors and instant torque are why a 2,460 kg sedan-coupe can out-launch much lighter combustion supercars off the line. It is a clean illustration of why instant-torque AWD EVs dominate 0-60 despite their mass — the same theme that runs through our EV 0-60 rankings and the fastest cars of 2026.

The AMG.EA Platform

AMG.EA is Mercedes-AMG's dedicated high-performance electric architecture, and the GT 4-Door Coupé is the first production car built on it. It uses an 800-volt system, a 106 kWh battery with directly oil-cooled cylindrical cells (around 2,660 of them), and a slippery 0.22 drag coefficient.

Battery, Range and 600 kW Charging

The 800-volt, 106 kWh pack supports DC charging up to 600 kW — roughly 10-80% in about 11 minutes, or about 460 km of range added in 10 minutes. That is fast enough to recharge between launch attempts quicker than almost anything else on the road, though it is well short of the GT XX concept's 850 kW claim. WLTP range is up to roughly 700 km (around 435 miles).

Price and Availability

Mercedes-AMG had not officially confirmed US pricing or an on-sale date at reveal, so any specific figure is unverified. Production begins summer 2026 in Sindelfingen.

FAQ

How fast is the Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door EV 0-60?

Mercedes-AMG claims 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in 2.1 seconds for the top GT 63 4MATIC+, using AMG Launch Control with the battery at least 80% charged. A true 0-60 mph time would be marginally quicker, but no independently tested figure has been published yet.

Is the AMG GT 4-Door EV the same as the Concept AMG GT XX?

No. The Concept AMG GT XX (June 2025) is a non-production technology showcase rated at roughly 1,341 hp with 850 kW charging. The production GT 4-Door Coupé (revealed May 2026) makes up to 1,153 hp with 600 kW charging, built on the AMG.EA platform.

How much power does the AMG GT 63 EV make?

Up to 860 kW (1,153 hp) peak via Launch Control at 80%+ charge, from three axial-flux motors. Continuous output is around 530 kW (711 hp).

How fast does the AMG GT 4-Door EV charge?

The 800-volt, 106 kWh pack supports up to 600 kW DC charging — about 10-80% in roughly 11 minutes, or about 460 km of range added in 10 minutes.

What is the AMG.EA platform?

AMG.EA is Mercedes-AMG's dedicated high-performance electric architecture. The GT 4-Door Coupé is the first production car built on it, using an 800-volt system and YASA-derived axial-flux motors.
