The 2026 Mercedes-AMG GT XX isn’t just a bold vision, it’s a full-force leap into the future of electric performance. Built on Mercedes-AMG’s dedicated AMG.EA platform, the GT XX is a high-voltage, track-focused four-door that looks like it time-warped in from tomorrow.
Unveiled as a concept but packed with production-ready innovation, this car breaks every mold we’ve come to expect from electric performance vehicles.
Power in a New Dimension
At the heart of the GT XX lies an all-new drive system using three axial flux motors, jointly engineered by AMG and YASA. This revolutionary layout produces a jaw-dropping 1,360+ horsepower, delivering instant torque and race-ready responsiveness.
Paired with AMG’s proprietary Light Speed Transmission and all-wheel-drive system, the GT XX can rocket to speeds beyond 360 km/h. Thanks to an overhauled thermal system and oil-cooled motor integration, the drivetrain keeps cool, even under punishing conditions.
Charging isn’t just fast, it’s mind-blowing. With an 800V system and next-gen battery cooling, the GT XX can gain 400 km of range in about 5 minutes. That’s faster than topping off most fuel tanks.
Battery Innovation Inspired by Formula 1
The GT XX uses AMG’s High Performance Electric Battery, developed with knowledge from Formula 1 and the AMG ONE hypercar. Featuring slim, cylindrical cells with direct oil cooling, the battery excels in both power output and thermal efficiency.
With 850+ kW average charging power and ultra-precise heat management, this system allows for repeated high-output performance without loss of stamina. It’s performance that doesn’t fade, even under intense track use.
Aerodynamics That Think for Themselves
Form meets function in the GT XX’s silhouette. Aerodynamics aren’t just sculpted, they’re intelligent. A 0.198 drag coefficient, paired with active elements like an airbrake and underbody Venturi tuning, makes this car slice the air with purpose.
Aero wheels with active blades open to cool the brakes when needed, then seal shut to reduce drag. This patented system even powers itself using mini-generators inside each wheel.
Design That Moves and Speaks
Finished in shimmering Sunset Beam Orange, the GT XX makes a bold first impression. Its MBUX Fluid Light Panel at the rear can display dynamic lighting, animations, and real-time messages. Meanwhile, hidden speakers in the headlights project audio, alerts, and even bass-heavy notes using passive membranes.
Interior: From the Track to the Future
Inside, the GT XX is stripped-down yet stunning. Black dominates the cabin, while exposed carbon structures and orange high-voltage-inspired accents create a motorsport vibe.
Custom 3D-printed seat cushions, derived from real driver scans, are wrapped in LABFIBER Biotech Leather, a sustainable material made from recycled AMG GT3 racing tires. Even the door handles are finished in biotech silk.
Screens are minimal and functional, focused on the driver. A digital AMG crest glows on the center console. Orange loops replace traditional door handles. It’s high-performance theater from every angle.

Built to Handle Every Curve
The GT XX uses fully variable AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive with torque-vectoring via its three motors. With the front motor acting as a booster, the system transitions between RWD and AWD seamlessly, maximizing grip, agility, and efficiency.
Summary
The 2026 Mercedes-AMG GT XX redefines the hypercar as we know it. It’s more than powerful, it’s intelligent, expressive, and sustainable. With futuristic aerodynamics, track-ready endurance, and head-turning design, the GT XX is a concept that feels ready for reality.
