2026 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT

Price Range: $102,100 - $200,500

Average

It's clear from the AMG branding that the 2026 Mercedes-AMG GT is intended to be a luxurious sport sedan. It falters in both missions. The suspension is too harsh for a luxury car, and the steering and brakes aren't up to snuff for a sport sedan. Competitors better balance comfort and performance.Read full review

Overview

Written by automotive expert Jared Gall

4/8/2026

Elsewhere in the Mercedes-Benz lineup, if a sedan and a coupe wear the same alphanumeric badge, both have four doors, they're mechanically identical, and the latter has a fastback roofline. But when it comes to the AMG GT, "coupe" means just two doors and the sedan is mechanically unrelated. Both cars offer a wide range of engines at an equally broad span of price points, as well as sleek familial sheetmetal.

Edmunds spotlight: No relation

The AMG GT coupe and sedan (which Mercedes confusingly refers to as the "4-door Coupe") might share a name and some of their engines, but differences between the two go much deeper than door count. The coupe shares its underpinnings with the SL roadster, while the sedan's structure is derived from that of the previous-generation E-Class sedan. And in the case of the AMG GT 43, the two body styles aren't even powered by the same engine. The AMG GT 43 coupe packs a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder, while the AMG GT 43 sedan gets a turbo 3.0-liter inline-six. Coupe and sedan are similarly thrilling performers, though, so we won't quibble anymore about semantics.

Competitors to consider

If you're looking at the AMG GT coupe, the Porsche 911 and Chevrolet Corvette are worth checking out. Both are more focused on performance than the comparatively luxurious AMG GT. And both are available as convertibles; if you want a convertible AMG, you'll have to check out the Mercedes-Benz SL. If you're shopping sedans, you'll also want to take a look at the BMW 8 Series Gran Coupe and Porsche Panamera, both of which offer a similar range of powertrains and performance. For 2026, Audi's fastback four-door is only available in maximum-performance RS 7 Performance guise.

Edmunds Expert Rating

edmunds TESTED

Driven, tested, rated by automotive expert Reese Counts

Average

5.8

out of 10

We drove the 2026 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.

Driving experience

7.5/10

How does the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT drive? At our test track, the AMG GT 53 accelerated to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds. That's on par with rival six-cylinder sport sedans we've tested. The automatic transmission downshifts quickly when you need it and smoothly when you don't. The engine stop-start system is unobtrusive too.

Unfortunately, the rest of this AMG can't match the engine's performance. The suspension helps it corner flat, but the steering lacks the precision of a truly great sport sedan and the car doesn't hide its mass as well as rivals. The brakes were off the mark in our emergency braking distance tests, though they felt plenty strong in day-to-day driving. The suspension is tuned firmer than we'd like in a sport sedan. While it's comfortable on smooth highways, the car transmits many road imperfections into the cabin.

A low driving position and small windows make it hard to see out of the car, but the excellent surround-view camera system helps. Mercedes offers a variety of driver aids, though most are optional. Our car was equipped with adaptive cruise control, blind-spot warning, lane keeping assistance and more. Most features worked well, though the traffic sign recognition kept slowing the car unnecessarily.

Comfort

5.4/10

2026 mercedes-benz amg gt 63 s e performance

How comfortable is the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT? Our test vehicle was equipped with the optional AMG Performance seats. They're thinly padded and don't offer much adjustment unless you opt for the additional adjustment package at an extra cost. Heated and ventilated seats are an option, too, as is a rear bench seat. That said, the front seats are comfortable, and the rear buckets are well padded.

It's relatively easy to navigate the infotainment system's menus using either the touchscreen or the touchpad on the center console. There are plenty of real buttons, including some on the center console that house little screens. They look cool but wash out if you're wearing polarized sunglasses.

Getting in and out can be a challenge. The low roofline and wide door sills mean you have to duck and then awkwardly step in. The heavily bolstered Performance seats further impeded access. Once you're in, you'll find the driving position is set rather low, which might not suit everyone.

The sloping roofline can make installing taller car seats a bit of an issue, as will the wide doorsills. The anchor points are clearly marked, but they're buried within the seat bolstering. The bucket-style seating might also complicate seat installation.

In-cabin tech

7.6/10

How’s the tech? The AMG GT sedan uses Mercedes' MBUX infotainment system, and it features one of the best in-car navigation systems available today. The map is clear and easy to read, lacking the busyness that clutters other systems. You can input directions in a variety of ways, from the 12.3-inch touchscreen to Mercedes' excellent "Hey, Mercedes" voice command system. Voice commands in general are excellent and can be used to adjust the climate control, change the radio station, or even tell you a joke.

Both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, though there's no wireless connectivity for either. A wireless charging pad is standard but tucked away behind the cupholders. There are a handful of USB-C ports in both rows.

Storage & cargo

4/10

How’s storage and cargo? Mercedes may have given the AMG GT a coupe-like profile, but it doesn't suffer from coupe-like storage. The big plus is the GT's rear hatch. Its 12.7 cubic feet of cargo space is less than what other coupe-like sedans offer, but the space itself is wide and deep. The biggest issue is the tall rear bumper because it makes putting stuff in the back a bit of a stretch.

As for in-cabin storage, the door pockets and center console are about average-size for the class. We do have an issue with the cupholders. They're too deep for shorter cups and can inadvertently snap the lid off a small cup of coffee. Plus, using them completely blocks the wireless charging pad.

Value

7.1/10

Is the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT a good value? For better or worse, the AMG GT looks and feels like a Mercedes-Benz. The interior is handsome and well appointed, with nice wood trim and soft leather on the seats. Our test vehicle was well equipped with features like forged wheels, performance exhaust and AMG Performance seats as well driver aids like adaptive cruise control. All of that does come at a cost, however. BMW, Audi and Cadillac all offer V8 power and better performance for significantly less money.

Mercedes has a standard four-year/50,000-mile basic, powertrain and corrosion warranty, average for the class. It also includes four years/50,000 miles of roadside assistance, but — unlike some rivals — no free maintenance is offered.

MPG

3/10

How’s the fuel economy? The AMG GT 53, which is what we tested, has an EPA-estimated fuel economy of 21 mpg combined. It got 22.4 mpg on our mixed-driving evaluation route. That's better than its V8-powered rivals but worse than most of the six-cylinder competition, most of which cost significantly less.

X factor

7/10

The AMG GT 53 handles well and has a strong engine. The problem is that the same can be said of other Mercedes sedans. The E-Class and CLS both offer similar features and performance, making the AMG GT 53 feel less special. While it looks good, it doesn't really do enough to stand out from Mercedes' other models.

That might be fine if it was more entertaining to drive. Don't get us wrong: The AMG GT 53 is quick and sporty. It's just that it doesn't feel as sharp or as nimble as some of its rivals. Other automakers do a better job of making their sport sedans feel smaller and less heavy than they actually are. All of these luxury sedans are big cars — but not all feel like it.

2026 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT trim level differences

The 2026 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT is available as a two-door coupe and a four-door sedan. The coupe can be had in five trim levels: AMG GT 43, AMG GT 55, AMG GT 63, AMG GT 63 S E Performance and AMG GT 63 Pro. Each is distinguished by its engine and — in most cases — other performance and luxury additions. A small rear seat is standard in the AMG GT 43 and optional in the other coupes. Compare the 2026 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT trim levels in-depth.

Which AMG GT trim does Edmunds recommend?

The happy medium in the sedan lineup is the AMG GT 53. Its turbocharged inline-six engine puts out plenty of power at a tremendous savings compared to its V8-powered siblings. The one must-have option in our book is the Driver Assistance package for its lengthy list of supplemental safety technologies.

My 2016 AMG GT S. It has every performance upgrade that MB offers. A thinly disguised race car, not a sports car. Interior quality second to none. Braking like I didn't know was possible.
