2023 Mercedes-AMG GT43 / GT53 / GT63
Starting at $93.550

Highs Bonkers acceleration from the V-8 models, exotic looks, high-end cabin appointments.
Lows Heart-stopping prices, snug rear-seat headroom, confusing infotainment interface.
Verdict With four-passenger room and awesome performance the AMG GT is the great white shark of luxury performance sedans.

Overview
The 2023 Mercedes-AMG GT sedan synthesizes performance and presence in a way that few four-doors can. Mechanically, it’s based on the E-class wagon not the GT sports car, but no matter—it behaves much the same as the two-seater. The inline-six in the GT43 and GT53 models have plenty of muscle but its the t

win-turbo V-8-powered GT63 models that are the apex predators of the lineup. Handling is satisfyingly sporty for such a large vehicle—and brilliant in the most aggressive models. The fact that you can bring three passengers along on your joy rides is an added plus. Despite the car's performance potential, it doesn't skimp on luxury; the interior is nicely tailored in fine materials and dotted with modern conveniences. Rear-seat headroom isn't as generous here as it is in the E63 sedan, but the GT's low fastback roofline offsets that deficit with a more exotic look.

What's New for 2023?
The V-8­–powered GT63 and GT63 S models are back for 2023 after taking a year-long break. These high-performance variants of the GT sedan receive the same styling updates that the GT43 and GT53 models received last year. In addition, a range-topping GT63 S E-Performance model joins the lineup with a whopping 830-horsepower plug-in hybrid powertrain.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
GT43: $97,050
GT53: $107,850
GT63: $150,350
GT63 S: $171,500

We'd suggest going with the mid-range GT53, which offers plenty of horsepower and a pleasant driving experience. We'd add the Warmth and Comfort package, which adds a heated steering wheel, heated front armrests, and rapid-heating elements for the front seats. The Driver Assistance package is also appealing, as it adds a host of technologies including adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and blind-spot monitoring. Then again, we were seduced by the 630-hp GT63 S when we last drove it.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance
Under the hoods of both the GT43 and GT53 is a robust 3.0-liter inline-six-cylinder engine that features a turbocharger, an intercooler, an electric supercharger, and a small electric motor. From a stop, the electric motor and supercharger fill in the brief lapse in torque delivery before the turbo is spinning out full boost. The 3.0-liter, which packs a combined 429 horsepower in the GT53, snaps necks whenever you touch the accelerator. In our testing the GT53, which features a conventional nine-speed automatic transmission, it accelerated to 60 mph in 4.1 seconds, and its sporty suspension delivered flat, responsive cornering and sports-car levels of grip. The GT63 and GT63 S are powered by a thunderous 4.0-liter V-8. It’s a technological tour de force with dry-sump oiling, direct injection, and two turbochargers mounted in its V. It's rated at 575 horsepower in the GT63, and cranked up to 630 horsepower in the GT63 S. These models also get a dual-clutch nine-speed automatic transmission and air suspension. In our testing, the GT63 S needed just 2.9 seconds to reach 60 mph. That's as quick as a Porsche Panamera Turbo. An even more powerful GT63 S E-Performance plug-in hybrid model has been confirmed for 2023 and uses a rear-mounted electric motor to boost combined horsepower to a 830 hp. Tarmac everywhere need be worried.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
While much of the GT's interior is shared with the other four-door coupe from Mercedes, the CLS, the large console between its seats appears to have been pulled from the GT sports car. It's a bit intrusive but makes for a sporty cockpit feel. The interior design overall is futuristic and visually exciting, but some of its ergonomics can take some getting used to. This is also a four-seater, which may be an issue for some families. Aggressively bolstered sport seats are standard and comfortable, while a fat and flat-bottomed steering wheel, aluminum trim, and digital gauge cluster fit the sedan's high-performance mission.
