2024 Mercedes-AMG GT 63 Coupe: The GT Matures

The Mercedes-AMG GT showed its face in 2014 and laid the groundwork for some of the most interesting Mercedes models of the decade. After Mercedes-AMG expanded the GT’s offerings by folding a four-door variant into its naming convention in 2018, there were some doubts about the small coupes push for a second generation. Fortunately for AMG GT coupe fans, Merc did roll out a second-generation AMG GT in 2023 during Car Week festivities. This second-generation AMG GT did bring a new set of naming conventions and an all-wheel-drive system but still kept the coupe shell. Alongside the changes to the second-gen GT, this latest iteration also adds a second row of seats for those who need extra passenger space and a more price-conscious powertrain for those who don’t need four-liters of turbocharged grunt under the hood.  On this episode of Quick Spin, Autoweek’s executive editor Tom Murphy hops behind the wheel of the 2024 Mercedes-AMG GT 63 and puts it through its paces. Murphy takes you on a guided tour of the second-generation AMG GT and highlights some of his favorite features. Later, Murphy takes you along for a live drive review. Adding to these segments, Murphy chats with host Wesley Wren about the 2024 Mercedes-AMG GT 63, the generational changes that came to the AMG GT Coupe, and more. Closing the show, the pair break down what makes the ’24 Mercedes-AMG GT 63 special.
