Unveiling the 2025 Mercedes-AMG GT63 Two-Door Coupe: Luxury Meets Performance
The automotive world is abuzz with the arrival of the 2025 Mercedes-AMG GT63 two-door Coupe, a model that seamlessly blends luxury, performance, and cutting-edge technology. This new iteration replaces the 2015-2021 AMG GT, bringing with it a host of new features that are set to elevate the driving experience.
A New Generation of Design and Comfort
The 2025 GT63 Coupe introduces a larger, heavier body that accommodates a four-seat cabin layout—a significant upgrade from its predecessor. This two-plus-two seating arrangement ensures that four occupants can travel in style and comfort, a feature that sets it apart in the high-performance coupe segment.
The exterior design of the GT63 is both bold and refined. With a long wheelbase, short overhangs, and a large Mercedes-Benz grille framed by the signature ‘power dome’ bonnet, this coupe commands attention on the road. The flush door handles and retractable rear spoiler, which can be set in five different positions, add to its aerodynamic efficiency and sleek appearance.
Power and Performance
Under the hood, the GT63 boasts a hand-assembled 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine, delivering a staggering 430kW of power and 800Nm of torque. This engine, shared with other high-performance Mercedes-AMG models like the SL63, is mated to a nine-speed automatic transmission and an all-wheel-drive system. The result? A blistering 0-100km/h sprint time of just 3.2 seconds and a top speed of 315km/h.
For those seeking even more power, a higher-spec S E Performance version, featuring a hybrid powertrain, was unveiled at the 2024 Chinese Formula One Grand Prix. However, this variant has yet to be confirmed for the Australian market.
Advanced Aerodynamics and Suspension
Mercedes-AMG has equipped the GT63 with advanced aerodynamic features designed to enhance stability at high speeds and improve powertrain cooling. One standout feature is the patented underbody system, which can lower the car by 40mm, creating a Venturi effect that increases downforce. Additionally, the ‘Airpanel’ system opens louvres to cool the engine as needed.
The AMG Active Ride Control suspension replaces traditional anti-roll bars, offering superior body control during cornering, acceleration, and braking. The lift system can raise the front of the car by up to 41mm, making it easier to navigate speed humps and other obstacles.
Luxurious Interior with Cutting-Edge Technology
Inside, the GT63 is a showcase of luxury and technology. The leather-upholstered AMG sports seats, available in six colors, come with integrated head restraints, inflatable side bolsters, and a massage function as part of the standard ‘Energizing Package Plus’. The flat-bottom AMG steering wheel features integrated LCD buttons for driving modes and functions, complemented by aluminium shift paddles.
The digital cockpit is anchored by a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and an 11.9-inch portrait-oriented infotainment touchscreen. This system includes AMG-specific content, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, navigation with augmented reality, and the AMG Track Pace software for performance tracking.
For audiophiles, the 11-speaker 600W Burmester surround sound system promises an immersive listening experience, while the 64-colour ambient lighting and fixed sunroof enhance the cabin’s atmosphere.
Pricing and Options
The 2025 Mercedes-AMG GT63 two-door Coupe is priced at $366,500 before on-road costs, reflecting its premium positioning in the market. Buyers can further personalize their vehicle with several optional packages:
