The CONCEPT AMG GT XX embodies the future of high-performance electric mobility. Merging advanced electric drivetrain technology with iconic AMG design DNA, it represents the next evolution of sports car engineering—electrified, intelligent, and radically emotive. With a power output exceeding 1,341 hp, a top speed of over 223 mph, and a charging time of just ~5 minutes for approximately 400 km of range (WLTP), it stands as a technological masterpiece wrapped in breathtaking aesthetics.
Raw Performance Meets High Technology
At the heart of the CONCEPT AMG GT XX is a tri-motor setup—three axial flux electric motors paired with the AMG Performance 4MATIC+ fully variable all-wheel drive system. This configuration enables fully variable torque distribution and a precise balance of traction, efficiency, and directional stability. Transitions between rear- and all-wheel drive occur seamlessly, thanks to intelligent control algorithms embedded in the vehicle’s architecture.
With an average DC charging power exceeding 850 kW and >800 V nominal voltage, the CONCEPT AMG GT XX sets new standards for ultra-fast charging and high-voltage architecture.
Revolutionary Aero Dynamics: The Active Aero Wheel
A world first, the active, intelligent, electronically controlled Aero Wheel optimizes brake cooling and range. Each 21-inch forged aluminum wheel integrates five moving aero blades, which can open to increase brake cooling efficiency or close flush with the rim to minimize drag. Controlled autonomously via Bluetooth and powered by their own mini-generators, these systems operate independently to ensure peak aerodynamic performance.
A Sculptural, Lightweight Interior That Speaks Performance
The interior of the CONCEPT AMG GT XX is a statement of precision-engineered minimalism. Exposed extrusions of the body structure around the center console—with illuminated orange tubes—create a visceral visual link to high-voltage systems, symbolizing the electrified soul of the car. A design element in the form of the AMG crest, milled from solid metal and subtly illuminated, anchors the center console.
There is no cladding on the instrument panel, which recalls the look of a classic sports car engine block. The matte black finish with a machined AMG logo reinforces its performance DNA. The panel itself integrates the air ducting and electrical cable routing, while a structural crossmember forms the cockpit’s upper edge.
Vertical H-struts below the panel unite the cockpit substructure with the center console, emphasizing a cohesive design language around exposed extrusion elements. Even the door armrests and panels use this structure—with backlit racing perforations and orange closing loops—blending innovation with motorsport cues.
Ergonomics Reimagined: 3D-Printed Seat Pads and Carbon Fiber Buckets
The carbon fiber front bucket seats come with 3D-printed seat pads tailored to the driver using individual body scans. Covered in Pearl Black LABFIBER Biotech Leather Alternative, they offer race-proven ergonomics with luxurious comfort. Rear bucket seats, formed directly into the carbon rear bulkhead, and the lack of a roof headliner further reduce weight while highlighting structural materials.
Sustainable and Innovative Materials
The CONCEPT AMG GT XX is pioneering in its use of biotechnology-based materials. The LABFIBER Biotech Leather Alternative, developed with U.S. startup Modern Meadow, is crafted from recycled AMG GT3 racing tires, vegetable proteins, and biopolymers. It mimics genuine leather in texture and durability, offering surface finishes from suede to full grain. Breathable, waterproof, and twice as strong as leather, it demonstrates AMG’s commitment to sustainable luxury.
The interior also includes LABFIBER Biotech Silk Alternative—a plant-based, biodegradable yarn produced from genetically engineered silk proteins. Used on elements such as door handles, it offers the look and strength of silk while being 100% animal-free.
Recycled floor coverings with a checkered flag design, aluminum AMG-crest buttons, and fabric with color-backlit patterns contribute to a dynamic, race-inspired environment.
MBUX and the Digital Experience
The Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) is fully reimagined for the CONCEPT AMG GT XX. Powered by the Mercedes-Benz Operating System (MB.OS) and built on a chip-to-cloud architecture, it displays key highlights of the High Performance Electric Battery with vivid animations. This interface combines functionality with emotional design, offering intuitive control over all vehicle domains.
Fluid Communication: MBUX Fluid Light Panel and Luminescent Paint
Communication becomes a visual language with the MBUX Fluid Light Panel—a rear LED matrix of over 700 RGB pixels. It can display animations, charging status, or AMG logos in real-time. Paired with electroluminescent paintwork, including glowing segments along the side skirts and AMG logos, the vehicle becomes a living expression of its electric identity. The paint also functions during charging, gradually dimming to visually signal readiness.
Sound Innovation: Headlight-Integrated Speakers
In a world-first design, external speakers are integrated into the front headlights, using the housing as an acoustic chamber. This innovation saves space, reduces weight, and enables new, richer sound profiles for both emotional driving experiences and pedestrian protection.
