Watch the Mercedes AMG GT Premiere Live Streaming
Mercedes-Benz is about to unveil its most direct competitor ever to the Porsche 911, and you can watch the action here.
The AMG GT is a front-engined, rear-drive car that has been developed exclusively by AMG as a successor to the SLS AMG. This car will be smaller and lighter than its predecessor and it will not feature that car’s signature gull-wing doors.

Power will come from a brand-new twin-turbo V8 that will make between 462 and 510 hp output. There will likely be different power outputs for different trim levels of the car. The engine takes advantage of an advanced direct injection system with variable fuel pressure between 1,450 and 2,900 psi through a set of piezo injectors.
We have already seen shots of the car in camouflage, the interior, and a set of teaser images from a video game, but today we will finally see the final design in its entirety.
The car will debut at 2:30 pm EST, and the live stream is set to begin at 1:30 pm EST. Make sure to check back to AutoGuide for all the details.
