Mercedes AMG GT73 Spied at a charging port

Mercedes AMG 4 Door hybrid

 














You have may already seen this which is the GT class. Became the new family member last year the GT class was the new rival to the Porsche Panamera. Mercedes AMG have been notifying a Hybrid version of the GT class to come out possibly next year in 2021. Recently, it was spied in a charging station which I know that the new GT hybrid will rival the Panamera Hybrid as well. This will be known as the new 73 series the AMG GT73 which thinking that Mercedes would have a V12 engine but due to economy issues that is not going to happen. 

Instead the AMG GT73 is going to use the same 4.0 litre Twin turbo V8 they use in the GT63 Models which was mentioned that the car would produce over 800HP. 800HP for an AMG saloon now there is enough power to even get from 0-60mph however that has not been confirmed just yet but will be confirmed soon and the top speed has not bee confirmed but I perosnally think that the GT73 should plough over 200mph. 

Along with the V8 combustion engine there is a hybrid electric motor by EQ Power+ which therefore the car can now be driven on electric power along as well. Mercedes has not confirmed the total range in Electric mode but I suggest it wont be many as I can estimate around 25 miles of pure electric driving but thats enough for your morning commute to work. 

The price has not been listed as well but since this is the powerful version it will be more expensive than the GT63s which doesnt seen pleasing however this car shows a new approach to AMG as AMG engines are getting smaller such as the 53 series are being introduced onto a variety of cars with a EQ boost technology to enhance efficiency when driving. Here is a teaser video for the AMG GT73.
