2020 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT review

1. Powerful engines 

No matter whether you opt for the base four-door coupe or the limited-edition GT R Pro, you'll find plenty of power in the 2020 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT to get your heart racing. The base 3.0L, inline-six turbo engine delivers 429 horsepower, and the GT lineup only goes up from there. Every other trim has a biturbo 4.0L V8 with power ranging from 469 hp in the base GT Coupe and Roadster up to an impressive 630 hp in the GT 63 S Coupe. Yes, that means the quickest of the bunch is the top-end, four-door coupe. 

2. Modern infotainment system 

If you don't want to depend on keeping the native navigation system up-to-date, the 2020 Mercedes-Benz AMG has standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration at every level. This infotainment system offers crisp graphics as well as a 10.25-inch display. Plus, if you hate fingerprints on the screen, you'll appreciate that the infotainment system has touch controls on the left side of the steering wheel. 

3. Eye-catching exterior 

Though the 2020 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT offers three body styles (sedan, coupe, and convertible), you'll appreciate the sleek family resemblance among the trio. The ageless Mercedes grille is bold but blends well with the sleek fast-back design, and the LED high-performance headlights help solidify the connection between the three variants. If you want something extra, be sure to look for the various carbon fiber packages that offer everything from carbon fiber accents to a carbon fiber roof. 

4. Attention to detail 

The interior of the 2020 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT is both high-tech and high-end. The adjustable 12.3-inch gauge cluster has modern appeal, while the luxurious materials and stitching accents hearken back to an old-world feel. From Nappa leather seats to suede material on the steering wheel, there are a wide variety of interior options to watch for, but they all say luxury. 

5. Log your track data 

If you intend to track your 2020 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT, the AMG TRACK PACE virtual race engineer is available on the two-door coupe and roaster. On closed-course race tracks, this system will allow you to record things such as speed, acceleration, and lap times, so you can analyze and improve your driving skills.

It has well-known tracks, like the Nürburgring, pre-loaded into the system, but it's also possible to record your own tracks — meaning you can use it on your local circuit.
