Las Vegas stunt with camouflaged prototype celebrates new collaboration

To mark this partnership, Mercedes‑AMG staged a spectacular high-energy stunt in Las Vegas, starring Brad Pitt, George Russell and a camouflaged prototype of the upcoming vehicle. The scene: Brad waits for his car at a valet stand - only to discover that the valet driver is none other than five-time F1 race winner George Russell. Behind the wheel of a Mercedes‑AMG GT 4‑Door Coupe prototype, George puts the car through its paces, offering a first look at the breathtaking precision, agility, and thrill that will define the new Mercedes‑AMG GT 4‑Door Coupe.¹

Revolutionary drive concept

The upcoming Mercedes‑AMG 4‑Door Coupe is based on the high-performance architecture AMG.EA and features a revolutionary new drive concept. Three axial flux motors and a direct-cooled battery deliver a new dimension of performance and outstanding continuous power. This summer, the CONCEPT AMG GT XX showcased the impressive performance capabilities of this technology with a record-breaking run in Nardò, southern Italy. The drivetrain of the upcoming series-production Mercedes‑AMG GT 4‑Door Coupe is based on the same technologies.
