The Mercedes Benz AMG GT XX is a 1340HP Electric Sedan!
the new Mercedes AMG GTX, which has just been announced. It has 1340 horsepower. It’s a four-door sedan. It’ll do 223 mph. The downside is it is electric, and it looks like this. I will say there’s some interestingly news hidden within this. It’s some new battery technology for Mercedes. It’s on an 800 volt electric architecture, which I don’t think other Mercedes are. They claim that it can charge 248 mi of range in 5 minutes. Assuming you have an 850 kW charger, which obviously doesn’t exist in the real world, but like if it did. So assuming you have your own nuclear power plant, you could charge it really fast. That’s very helpful. Mercedes.
I do hope this is them taking a bunch of battery technology and motor technology for performance that then migrates down the line.
My personal opinion is I think it’s I actually think it’s cool. I bet it’s going to get a ton of hate online cuz that’s what happens. But I think it’s pretty cool. I just think the enthusiast electric car, especially at this price point, I’m not sure there’s really a market. we’re going to see these and they’re going to be the official promo car for this event and that race and whatever. But like I’m not sure there’s actually people out there who’s that interested in these cars and I just think if the manufacturers want to go electric, electric cars should be little sedans and crossovers that people like Felippo buy.
How do you debut like the new technology? Traditionally, it’s been with a halo car that then trickles down. So like the formula makes sense, but I agree that I just think things are so different now. Manufacturers should probably rethink how they approach stuff like this. You know how I debut new technology in a Gwing rebodied as a modern car. Think about it, Mercedes-Benz.
