Mercedes-Benz AMG GT
The first generation bowed out in 2022, but here comes a brand new GT for 2024. The twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 is available with two output levels—476 horsepower in the GT 55 (0-100 km/h in 3.9 seconds) and 585 horsepower in the GT 63 (0-100 km/h in 3.2 seconds). In both cases, power is controlled by a nine-speed automatic transmission and 4Matic+ all-wheel drive system. The longer wheelbase benefits passengers taking a seat in this 2+2 coupe.
