Meet the Mercedes-AMG GT XX Concept: AMG’s Electric Beast Unleashed
If there’s one word that sums up the Mercedes-AMG GT XX Concept, it’s bold. This all-electric beast isn’t just a concept it’s AMG’s statement to the world that performance has a new future. And trust us, it’s coming fast.
Design That Takes No Prisoners
The GT XX Concept has the look of something directly from a sci-fi film. Think fastback silhouette, low-slung aggression and every surface thrown together for speed. The Panamericana grille is reinterpreted with deep strakes and a central star, and the ultra-slim vertical headlights feature speakers to tell pedestrians to move out of the way.
Even the active 21-inch aero wheels are smarter-featuring blades that adapt for cooling and drag reduction. And with a drag coefficient of 0.198, this car cuts through air like a hot knife through butter.
Inside it’s part cockpit, part art installation. Exposed frames, glowing orange tubes, a rectangular F1-style steering wheel and biotech seat padding made from upcycled racing tires. If Tron built a racecar, this would be it.
Unleashing the Power: Mercedes-AMG GT XX Performance Breakdown
Underneath that body is a serious powertrain. Beneath its aerodynamic shell lies a triple-motor powerhouse that unleashes more than 1,300 horses. Two axial flux motors at the rear, one at the front-combined they deliver all-wheel drive precision and forward motion.
Key Performance Stats
- 0–200 km/h: Under 5 seconds
- Top Speed: Over 360 km/h (223 mph)
- Power Delivery: Consistent, repeatable thanks to advanced cooling
What’s different is the axial flux motors, which are lighter, more compact and over three times more power-dense than conventional setups. More power without bulk, efficiency without compromise.
Charging That’s Just as Fast
Forget slow charging. The GT XX is based on an 800-volt architecture and a brand new HP.EB battery pack with direct cell cooling. Plug in and you can gain 400 km of range in just five minutes. That’s faster than your phone.
