• The new GT63 Pro 4Matic has a 4.0-liter V-8 engine from the second-generation AMG GT that makes 603 horsepower and 627 pound-feet of torque.
  • Better cooling and aerodynamics are the major changes to the car. Track-biased Cup R tires are available as an option, and carbon-ceramic brakes are standard.
  • The 2025 model should start being delivered in early 2019.

Over time, different versions of the original AMG GT Coupe that were faster and had more power were added to and changed, all the way up to the terrifying GT Black Series. The second-generation car, which came out last year, is now on the same trip. AMG has already shared information about the upcoming 805-hp plug-in hybrid GT63 S E, which will be the most expensive and powerful car in the line. Here’s a new version that was shown off at the UK’s Goodwood Festival of Speed: the AMG GT Pro, which is faster and more focused on the track.

Some say that when the car is driven on a track, the small changes that were made individually over the current GT63 add up to a big speed boost. Better cooling, more power, and standard carbon-ceramic brakes are now standard on the Pro. There will also be free tires made just for the race. “To maintain a high level of day-to-day usability for a car of this type,” said Michael Schiebe, CEO of AMG. The Pro is good for the track but not too rough on the road,” he said.

Details about the engine

AMG’s 4.0-liter twin-turbo V-8 has been around for a long time because it can be used in a variety of situations. It can produce between 450 and 750 horsepower and comes with both cross-plane and flat-plane crank versions. The standard cross-plane type that powers the new GT63 Pro isn’t much better than the one that powered the GT63. Peak power and torque are 26 horsepower and 37 pound-feet higher than they were in the last model. As with the GT63, it has a nine-speed automatic gearbox with a wet clutch instead of a torque converter and all-wheel drive with 4Matic. AMG says that the GT63 Pro can reach 60 mph in 3.1 seconds, which is the same time as the regular model. The Pro, on the other hand, is said to be 0.5 seconds faster from 0 to 124 mph, which means it can finish the tougher standard in just 10.9 seconds.

However, the AMG’s slightly higher output is less important for its planned racetrack home than its major cooling benefits. In addition to having separate radiators for the front and back differentials, the Pro has two very hot front radiators. The electronically controlled transfer case, which sends power to each axle, is also actively cooled. To get more air to the brakes, the outside of the front bumper is bigger on the sides.

How air moves and flows

Adding a fixed rear wing made of bare carbon fiber is the most noticeable change to the car’s aerodynamics. More air deflectors are put under the car to make more airflow over the trunk and rear diffuser. AMG doesn’t give out total downforce numbers, but the Pro has up to 33 pounds more downforce in the back and up to 66 pounds less aerodynamic lift over the front axle. Customers will be able to choose between free track-focused Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tires and Michelin Pilot Sport 5 tires. The car will come with a set of 21-inch forged metal wheels.

The Pro keeps many active dynamic features from the regular GT63, such as rear-axle steering, an electrically controlled limited-slip differential in the back, and adjustable dampers with hydraulic cross-linking that make cornering loads much less likely to cause the car to roll.

Even though it’s the most expensive, the GT63 Pro won’t be a limited edition model. Instead, the market will decide how popular it is compared to the other cars in the clan. We will get more information, including prices before the orders start in early January of next year.
