Launching of Mercedes AMG GT

T. Gargour & Fils offered their guests a unique private night on Thursday 23^rd of April 2015 in a first-of-its-kind indoor exclusive viewing organized at Mercedes-Benz showroom in Dora. Attendees had the opportunity to indulge in the exceptional Skybar experience and discover the new Mercedes-AMG GT sports car along with the brand racing history.

The first Mercedes was a racing car and its most recent successor
carries this heritage forward: with the new Mercedes-AMG GT, the Mercedes-AMG sports car brand is moving into a new, top-class sports car segment for the company. Its newly developed AMG 4.0-litre V8 biturbo engine underscores the hallmark AMG driving performance. The first sports car engine with internally mounted turbochargers ("hot inside V") and dry sump lubrication is configured in two output ratings, with the GT S launch model having an output rating of 375 kW (510 hp). The new GT combines driving dynamics and first-class racetrack performance with superb everyday practicality and efficiency that sets new standards in the segment.

It has everything you would expect from an authentic Mercedes-AMG sports car – from the characteristic styling and thoroughbred motorsport technology to the optimum weight distribution. The drive system tailored consistently to driving dynamics perfectly complements this set-up.

At the same time, the two-seater is a straightforward, comfortable and reliable companion for everyday motoring thanks to its practical tailgate, easily accessible luggage compartment, high level of comfort on long journeys and the extensive range of Mercedes-Benz Intelligent Drive assistance systems.

"The new Mercedes-AMG GT shows that we are positioning AMG more vehemently and aggressively than to date as a dynamic sports car brand"; says Mr. Cesar Aoun, General Manager of Mercedes-Benz and smart at T. Gargour & Fils. "The technological substance of the Mercedes-AMG GT underscores our high aspirations with regard to driving dynamics, agility and sportiness.”

The new Mercedes-AMG GT embodies sportiness and emotion as an expression of sensual purity.
