Mercedes-AMG GT SUV: Everything to know about it
Exterior details and styling
The new AMG GT SUV boasts a design inspired by the GT 4-Door Coupe model, which was also revealed a few months ago. With an overall low-slung profile and a sloping roofline, the AMG GT SUV packs a wider footprint with chiselled body panels and sharp styling cues.
At the front, it features a big illuminated grille with an illuminated Mercedes logo. This is complemented by the sculpted front bumper, which features the three vertical air dams on the lower part, and LED headlights with Digital Light tech, featuring the tri-star LED daytime running lights.
The side profile is dominated by the stretched-out wheelbase, big AMG alloy wheels, retractable door handles, and wide rear haunches. At the rear, the design is dominated by a sloping roof-mounted spoiler, an uplift boot with six circular tri-star LED taillights, an optional connected light bar, a sporty spoiler with diffuser, and an active spoiler that opens up above 150 km/h.
Mercedes is also offering the Manufaktur Programme that adds a long list of customisation options. Customers can choose from 60 different exterior colours, and AMG forged wheels that can be had in various colours and shades like Matt Black, Matt Copper, etc. To top it off, the active aerodynamics are offered as standard on the range-topping GT 63 variant.
Dimensionally, the GT SUV measures 5,084 mm in length, 2,001 mm in width, 1,656 mm in height, and has a wheelbase of 3,040 mm.
Interior design and features

The three-spoke AMG steering wheel features roller-type switches and circular dial knobs for drive modes, traction modes, and other performance-related options. Customers can also customise these buttons as per their choice.
Moving further, the whole cabin uses a mix of recycled materials and high-grade materials like aluminium pedals, switches, door panels, etc. The Manufaktur Programme adds a long list of customisation options, while the features include Level 2+ ADAS, wireless connectivity, AI-assisted infotainment, and a Race Telemetry UI, offering a thrilling experience.
