'The new E-Class Cabriolet gives its drivers even more that they will love – and not only because it's 13 centimetres longer and seven centimetres wider is than its predecessor,' says Dieter Exler, President & CEO of Mercedes-Benz USA. 'It's hard to find a cabriolet with more space and comfort. And, at the same time, it's one of the most intelligent vehicles on the road.' 50 years of AMG – half a century of performance The Mercedes-AMG GT Concept, which is likewise celebrating its USA premiere, heralds another milestone for the Mercedes-AMG sports car brand with features such as its high-performance hybrid drive. ' The GT Concept demonstrates that maximum efficience and outstanding performance fit perfectly together,' says Tobias Moers CEO of Mercedes-AMG GmbH. The GT Concept's performance hybrid system combines a highly efficient V8 petrol engine with a powerful electric motor and a modular battery concept. It offers a compelling electric range and, in its latest iteration, can generate an output of up to 600 kW (816 hp). The GT Concept accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in less than three seconds, putting it on par with a super sports car. Yet the dynamic fastback also offers an extremely high level of everyday usability, complete with its large tailgate and variable interior and luggage space. The four-door coupé thus combines high functionality with the excellent performance of the AMG GT sports cars. The show car's look is defined by muscular proportions, large volumes and a sensual yet minimalist surface design.
