Mercedes-AMG Unveils First Ground-Up SUV: A 1,150hp Electric Beast
Mercedes-AMG has revealed the 2028 GT SUV, its first ground-up SUV, an electric people-hauler with over 1,150 horsepower and ultra-fast charging, matching the GT four-door coupe's three axial flux motors.
Mercedes-AMG has introduced the 2028 Mercedes-AMG GT SUV, described as its first ground-up SUV. According to The Verge, the vehicle is an equally powerful, ultra-fast-charging electric people-hauler that delivers over 1,150 horsepower, matching the output of the AMG GT four-door coupe revealed earlier this year.
The GT four-door coupe, a souped-up sports sedan, features three axial flux motors producing over 1,150 horsepower. The new GT SUV shares that powertrain approach, according to the source, and is positioned as a beefier cousin to the coupe. The report notes that the SUV marks a new step for the AMG performance brand.
Because the source states the SUV is equally powerful and ultra-fast-charging, the GT SUV appears to carry the same high-performance electric focus into a larger, people-hauling form factor. The report does not provide further details on range, charging times, or pricing, so those specifics remain unconfirmed.
What to watch next: official specifications from Mercedes-AMG, including confirmed power output, charging capabilities, and availability for the 2028 model year. As the source indicates, the GT SUV is the brand's first ground-up SUV, making its full details a key follow-up.
