Mercedes-Benz Malaysia has introduced two formidable additions to its elite AMG portfolio. For drivers looking for a thrilling ride, there’s the new Mercedes-AMG GT 63 4MATIC+ Coupé and the trailblazing Mercedes-AMG SL 63 S E PERFORMANCE to consider.
With roots firmly embedded in motorsport and refinement suited for grand touring, these machines represent the ultimate fusion of performance, design, and cutting-edge innovation.
A Flagship Reimagined
A modern icon reborn, the second-generation AMG GT Coupé is a commanding presence—its long bonnet, short overhangs, and muscular proportions evoking the very spirit of Affalterbach performance. Under the bonnet lies the hand-assembled 4.0-litre V8 biturbo engine, producing 585 hp and 800 Nm of torque. The result? A searing 0–100 km/h sprint in a mere 3.2 seconds and a top speed of 315 km/h.
Blending breathtaking power with everyday versatility, the GT 63 offers a 2+2 configuration and refined practicality beneath its sculpted silhouette. The AMG Exterior Carbon Package, 21-inch forged wheels, and seamless aerodynamics—complete with active rear spoiler—contribute to a car that’s as dramatic as it is dynamic.
Inside, the digital cockpit is tailored for the discerning driver. The MBUX infotainment system, performance steering wheel clad in carbon fibre and microfibre, and AMG Performance seats provide a sensory-rich experience. Every detail, from the capacitive touch controls to the fully customisable drive modes, caters to those who expect more than mere transportation.
Technically, it’s a tour de force. The GT 63 features AMG’s Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive system, AMG ACTIVE RIDE CONTROL suspension with roll stabilisation, rear-axle steering for optimal agility, and a lightweight high-performance brake system.
Intelligent aerodynamics include an active air control system and deployable carbon underbody element, fine-tuned for maximum downforce and efficiency at speed. For racetrack aficionados, AMG TRACK PACE comes as standard, offering real-time telemetry and data analysis.
Expressive Open-Top Power
Reinterpreting the roadster for a new era, the Mercedes-AMG SL 63 S E PERFORMANCE debuts as the most powerful SL ever made. Merging the visceral charm of a 4.0-litre V8 with a rear-mounted electric motor, this plug-in hybrid performance marvel produces a combined output of 816 hp and a staggering 1,420 Nm of torque. The result? 0–100 km/h in just 2.9 seconds and a top speed of 317 km/h—grand touring redefined.
The advanced hybrid system, inspired by Mercedes-AMG’s Formula 1 expertise, features direct-cooled battery technology, delivering immediate power delivery with four levels of energy recuperation. The electric motor—seamlessly integrated with the all-wheel drive system—boosts responsiveness while optimising weight distribution for superior handling.
Its arresting design is punctuated by classic SL hallmarks—elongated bonnet, power domes, and a soft-top roof—while the AMG Aerodynamics and Night packages heighten visual drama. The cockpit indulges occupants with opulent Nappa leather, AMG Performance seats with massage functions, and a sophisticated ENERGIZING comfort suite.
The MBUX infotainment system features hybrid-specific graphics, including real-time energy flow visualisation and performance telemetry. Engineered for control and stability, the SL 63 boasts AMG ACTIVE RIDE CONTROL, ceramic high-performance brakes, and rear-axle steering—delivering a drive both thrilling and composed.
