Reveal and rollout timing
Mercedes-AMG unveiled the GT SUV on 17 October 2026, describing it as the first full-size SUV the performance division has developed entirely in-house in its 59-year history, and the second vehicle built on the AMG.EA high-performance electric architecture after the electric GT 4-Door Coupe. Three variants were announced: GT 53, GT 55 and GT 63. 234
According to Mercedes-Benz's press release, the entry-level GT 53 was available to order from 20 October 2026, starting at €113,050 in Germany, with the GT 63 and GT 55 following in spring 2027. CarExpert reports the GT53 will be the first to come down the line at Sindelfingen, with the GT55 and GT63 available in Europe from the second quarter of 2027, and converts the German price to roughly A$183,000 — an indicative conversion only, not an Australian price. Spanish outlet AutoScout24 notes Spanish pricing and the GT 55/63 tariffs have not yet been announced. 234
No Australian pricing, specification or on-sale date has been announced by Mercedes-Benz, and Australian availability should not be inferred from the European rollout. CarExpert notes the entry-level GT53 is "unlikely to come to Australia", but that is the publication's attribution, not a confirmation from the local distributor. 14
Drivetrain: axial-flux tri-motor versus dual-motor entry
Mercedes-Benz says the GT 63 and GT 55 use three axial-flux motors — two at the rear within a single HP.EDU housing and one at the front — delivering up to 860kW (1169hp) and 600kW (816hp) respectively. The front motor acts as a booster that decouples under light load to cut drag losses. CarExpert identifies the motors as developed by Mercedes-Benz-owned Yasa specifically for AMG. The entry GT 53 uses two synchronous motors rated at 400kW (544hp) and 800Nm, with a two-speed gearbox on the rear axle for launch acceleration and efficient high-speed running. 123
CarExpert reports the GT63 produces 860kW and 2000Nm in Race mode, and that in other modes a double pull on the paddles unlocks extra boost for up to 63 seconds. AutoHled, compiling the official figures, adds that the GT 55 and GT 63 share the same 530kW continuous output and differ mainly in peak power and torque. Spanish outlet AutoScout24 similarly notes the GT 63's 1169hp is peak output, with continuous power of 721hp. 135
Claimed acceleration figures carry the usual caveats: Mercedes-Benz quotes 0–100km/h in 2.5 seconds for the GT 63 using a one-foot rollout, 0–200km/h in 6.8 seconds and a 270km/h top speed with the Driver's Package, while listing 2.7 seconds without the rollout method. AutoHled highlights exactly this distinction, quoting 2.7 seconds (GT 63), 3.1 seconds (GT 55) and 4.2 seconds (GT 53) on the non-rollout basis. 25
Battery, charging and range figures
The 800-volt AMG High Performance Electric Battery was developed in-house with input from Mercedes-AMG High Performance Powertrains in Brixworth, the F1 powertrain operation, per CarExpert. Mercedes-Benz specifies two usable capacities — 106kWh (18 modules) or 128kWh (22 modules) — with directly cooled cylindrical cells (105mm tall, 26mm diameter), an NCMA cathode and silicon-containing anode chemistry quoted at over 298Wh/kg cell energy density, cooled by electrically non-conductive oil. CarExpert, from its AMG briefing, describes the GT63 pack as adding four extra modules over the GT 4-Door Coupe's pack, which it puts at 127kWh usable; the GT55 and GT53 use the same 107kWh usable pack as the 4-Door Coupe on its figures. The small discrepancy between these usable-capacity figures and Mercedes-Benz's 106/128kWh is a presentation difference between sources, not a conflict on the underlying hardware. 12
On charging, Mercedes-Benz claims up to 600kW DC for the 106kWh pack and up to 710kW for the 128kWh pack, with up to 380km (106kWh) or 450km (128kWh) of WLTP range added in ten minutes, and 10–80 per cent in up to 12 minutes on the larger pack — figures dependent on suitably powerful 800V charging hardware that remains rare. AutoHled quotes the same 600/710kW peaks, 11 and 12 minutes for 10–80 per cent, and 14 or 16 minutes on a 400kW station; AC charging is rated at 11kW. The system can automatically switch to 400-volt operation where 800V infrastructure is unavailable. 25
Range figures are preliminary WLTP values without final type approval, as AutoHled notes. Mercedes-Benz quotes up to 700km (WLTP, 22-module pack). AutoHled breaks the variants down: 597–668km for the GT 53 (106kWh), 525–585km for the GT 55 and GT 63 on the 106kWh pack and 620–700km on the 128kWh pack, noting the headline 700km does not apply to every version. CarExpert's reveal coverage lists 620km for the GT55/GT63 with the larger battery, consistent with that breakdown's lower bound. 245
Chassis, dimensions and aerodynamics
The GT SUV measures 5084mm long, 2001mm wide and 1656mm tall on a 3040mm wheelbase (5080mm and 1653mm for the GT 53, per AutoHled), with 607 litres of boot space under the VDA method expanding to 1740 litres, plus a 78-litre front compartment. CarExpert calculates the SUV is 42mm wider and 245mm taller than the GT 4-Door Coupe, and weighs 2525–2715kg depending on specification, roughly 100–150kg more than the equivalent sedan. 45
Mercedes-Benz's newly developed AMG ACTIVE RIDE CONTROL+ suspension — standard on the GT 63, optional on the GT 55 — uses triple-stage adjustable air springs and active hydraulic pitch and roll stabilisation in place of conventional anti-roll bars. Active rear-axle steering turns the rear wheels up to 6 degrees opposite the fronts below 80km/h and up to 1 degree with them above. Braking is by carbon-ceramics as standard on the GT 63, optional steel-to-ceramic on the GT 55, and steel on the GT 53. 25
The AEROKINETICS aerodynamics system, fitted to the GT 55 and GT 63 per AutoScout24, keeps front air inlets closed when cooling is not needed below 150km/h and deploys an active roof spoiler above that speed; drag coefficient is quoted at 0.27 (0.28 for the GT 53), against 0.24 for the sedan per CarExpert, which links the higher drag and weight to the SUV being about 0.3 seconds slower to 100km/h and losing around 70km of range in 106kWh form. 34
CarExpert's prototype drive: sound, race engineer and context
CarExpert contributor Angus MacKenzie drove a yellow GT63 prototype on 23-inch wheels with Hankook Ion tyres at Mercedes-Benz's Immendingen proving ground, attending as a guest of Mercedes-Benz. He describes a simulated V8 experience: twisting the steering-wheel knob to S+ brings a rumble rising to a 7200rpm redline with simulated gearshifts, generated by mixing more than 1600 sound files recorded from real AMG engines to interpret throttle position against torque load — technology Mercedes-Benz markets as the AMGFORCE Sport+ programme, which also includes seat shakers and a matching display design. 12
The drive was limited to a full-bore acceleration run and low-speed familiarisation, and MacKenzie is explicit that big questions — road ride, limit handling, and whether the AMG Race Engineer is a genuine tool or a gimmick — remain unanswered. His assessment that the GT63 sets a new benchmark for high-performance SUVs is CarExpert's view from that brief session, not an independent road-test verdict. Mercedes-Benz's own framing, quoted in its release from board members Jörg Burzer and Stefan Weckbach, positions the car as setting a benchmark in the electric SUV segment. 12
Context worth noting: AutoScout24 positions the GT SUV against the Porsche Cayenne Turbo Electric (up to 1156hp) and the Ferrari Purosangue as an electric rival. Comparison between these vehicles on range, charging or performance requires like-for-like, cycle-matched figures, and no independent head-to-head testing exists in the current coverage. GT 63 buyers receive the active suspension and carbon-ceramic brakes as standard, while AMG's continuous-output claim of 530kW matters for track use, where peak figures alone overstate sustained capability. 352

Mercedes-Benz's own framing, quoted in its release from board members Jörg Burzer and Stefan Weckbach, positions the car as setting a benchmark in the electric SUV segment.
Benchmark-in-electric-SUV-segment framing is Burzer's quote; Weckbach's quoted framing is different (SUV by shape, GT by nature), so the joint attribution is slightly imprecise but the release quotes both board members.
