The AMG®-developed V8 is engineered for a new era of performance. Generating high output from compact displacement, the 550-hp V8 biturbo engine elevates responsiveness and efficiency on Enterprise roads. Its massive torque reaches its 502 lb-ft peak at just 2,100 rpm, and holds it all the way to 5,500 rpm, for a 3.6-second 0-60 time and instant acceleration at any speed. Yet even with its advanced design and technologies, each AMG® GT engine is still hand-built and signed by its own craftsman. Talk performance with a Mercedes-Benz of Henderson Team Member at (702) 485-3000.
For better performance and packaging, the AMG® V8’s twin turbos are placed inside the “V” of the engine. The setup sends the compressed charge from each turbo to its bank of cylinders via an extremely short path, with near-zero pressure loss or turbo lag. The high-pressure turbos spool up quickly to as much as 186,000 rpm. The setup is also highly efficient from intake to exhaust, with liquid-cooled intercoolers and close-mounted catalysts that reach peak efficiency on Boulder City roads in seconds.
