Mercedes-Benz AMG GT 53 Sedan Exterior Shown

There's a lot to like with the Mercedes-2022 AMG GT 53 sedan. It's sporty, offers lots of trunk space, and is available with some of the best in-car tech and driver aids around. Unfortunately, the whole package doesn't work as well as some rivals. You can find four-doors that offer better performance, more utility and similar features for equal or less money, including from Mercedes-Benz itself.

Overview

Written by automotive expert Alex Nishimoto

6/15/2022

Mercedes-Benz has discontinued the AMG GT coupe and convertible for 2022, leaving the sedan as the sole offering. The sedan — Mercedes calls it a four-door coupe, just so you know — gets a further paring down, with the high-performance GT 63 S trim getting the ax, at least for the initial part of the model year. There is a possibility that it will return later for 2022 if Mercedes can sort out the supply chain issues that have made it difficult to build the V8s found in its various AMG 63 trim vehicles.

There's still plenty to like about what's left for the 2022 AMG GT. This "four-door coupe" takes the aggressive styling and low-slung coupe shape of the AMG GT sports car and incorporates it into a sedan body. It comes in two flavors for 2022: GT 43 and GT 53. Both are enjoyable to drive thanks to smooth power and plenty of available luxury features.

Yet we've also found the AMG GT has some deficiencies compared to its main rivals, the BMW 8 Series Gran Coupe and Porsche Panamera. Make sure to check out the categories of our test team's Expert Rating below to help you decide if this Benz is the best midsize sport sedan for you.

Edmunds Expert Rating

edmunds TESTED

by the Edmunds Experts

Average

7.6

out of 10

We drove the 2022 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.

Performance

8/10

How does the AMG GT drive? We tested the GT 53 sedan. Its engine feels strong and responsive around town and is incredibly smooth. Standard all-wheel drive means plenty of traction, too. At our test track, the AMG GT 53 accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds. That's on par with other rival six-cylinder sport sedans we've tested such as the Audi S7 and BMW 840i Gran Coupe. The automatic transmission downshifts quickly when you need it and smoothly when you don't. The GT 53's engine stop-start system is unobtrusive too.

Unfortunately, the rest of the GT 53 can't match the engine's strong performance. Every car in this class is big and heavy, but the GT 53 doesn't hide its mass as well as the Porsche Panamera or Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing. The suspension helps it corner flat, but the steering lacks the precision we want from a truly great sport sedan. The brakes, too, were off the mark in our emergency braking distance tests, though they feel plenty strong in day-to-day driving. A wide turning radius that makes it hard to pull off tight U-turns is another demerit here.

Comfort

8/10

How comfortable is the AMG GT? The AMG GT 53's suspension is tuned firmer than we'd prefer from a sport sedan. While it's comfortable on smooth highways, the car transmits more road imperfections into the cabin than the Audi S7 or BMW 8 Series Gran Coupe. Wind and road noise is higher than we prefer too. At least the inline-six's exhaust note sounds pretty sweet.

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. Seems like nickel and diming to us. That said, the front seats are comfortable, and the rear buckets are well padded.

Interior

7.5/10

How’s the interior? The GT 53 was recently updated with an all-new infotainment system, though it's the same one we've seen in other Mercedes-Benz cars for the past few years. The learning curve might be a bit steep, but that's simply because there's so much that the system can do. It's relatively easy to navigate the menus using either the touchscreen or the touchpad on the center console. There are plenty of real buttons, too, for quick access to navigation or media. Some buttons on the center console are actually little screens. They look cool but totally wash out if you're wearing polarized sunglasses. The gear selector is awkwardly located too.

Getting in and out can be a bit of a challenge too. The low roofline and wide doorsills mean you have to duck and then awkwardly step in. The heavily bolstered Performance seats of our test car further impeded access. Once you're situated, you'll find the driving position to be set rather low, which might not suit everyone. This, plus the small windows, also makes it hard to see out of the car, but the excellent surround-view cameras help here.

Technology

8/10

How’s the tech? The AMG GT 53 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 business that clutters other systems. You can input directions in a variety of ways, from the 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 neither one offers wireless connectivity. A wireless charging pad is standard but tucked away behind the cupholders. There are a handful of USB-C ports in both rows.

Mercedes offers the AMG GT 53 with a variety of driver aids, though most have to be added as options, either stand-alone or as part of larger packages. Our car was equipped with adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, lane keeping assist and more. Most of it worked well, though we had persistent problems with the traffic sign recognition slowing the car down unnecessarily.

Storage

7/10

How’s the storage? Mercedes may have given the AMG GT 53 a coupe-like profile, but it doesn't suffer from coupe-like storage. The big plus is the GT 53'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; 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 off the lid off a small cup of coffee. Plus, using them completely blocks the wireless charging pad.

Got kids? The sloping roofline might 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 affect how easy it will be to install your kid's safety seat.

Fuel Economy

6.5/10

How’s the fuel economy? The AMG GT 53 has an EPA-estimated fuel economy of 21 mpg combined (19 city/25 highway). It got 22.4 mpg on our 115-mile evaluation loop. That's better than its V8-powered rivals but worse than most of the six-cylinder competition, most of which cost significantly less.

Value

7/10

Is the AMG GT a good value? For better or worse, the GT 53 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 included.

Wildcard

8/10

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 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 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.

2022 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT trim level differences

The 2022 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT is a coupe-style sedan with a hatchback-style trunk. It comes in two trim levels: AMG GT 43 and AMG GT 53. All-wheel drive is standard, as is a nine-speed automatic transmission. It typically seats four but can be equipped with an optional rear bench seat that ups the passenger count to five. Highlighted standard features include: Compare the 2022 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT trim levels in-depth.

Which AMG GT trim does Edmunds recommend?

The AMG GT 53 is going to be your best option for now. The power from its turbocharged straight-six is more satisfying than what you get from the base AMG GT 43. Among the car's many options, the Driver Assistance package is a near must-have.
