Mercedes-Benz AMG GT launched in Philippines Officially

MANILA: The much awaited Mercedes-AMG GT S was presented by the Auto Nation Group, Inc. at the Mercedes-Benz Greenhills showroom. AMG GT was launched globally last year and now it is officially available in the country.

The AMG GT S is powered by a 4.0-litre bi-turbo V8 engine that produces a maximum power of 510 hp. It is mated with a 7-speed dual clutch transmission which is capable of accelerating from 0 – 100km/h in just 3.8 seconds.

Inside, the car seats comes upholstered with premium Alcantara and leather with red stitching and a flat-bottomed steering wheel. The center console consists of a large LCD screen along with a flush gear selector installed within the center of a glossy piano black console. It also boasts of a fastback tailgate in order to provide large luggage compartment.

Apart from the GT S, the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 Orange Art Edition was also showcased. It is quite similar to the current AMG CLA 45, holding top-stitching accents on the Premium leather seats, the AMG radiator grille, side mirrors, and hub caps. The GT is the second sports car which was manufactured by Mercedes-AMG. The GT S is reportedly priced at a PhP 14M.

The event noticed a large number of current AMG owners, so the AMG invited them to register in the AMG Private Lounge global online community which facilitates easy registration, keeping owner's contact and vehicle details private. Thereafter, the registered users will be alerted for special AMG events like driving activities and offers.
