After a five-year absence from the Indian market, Mercedes-AMG's flagship grand tourer is back. The arrival of the second-generation AMG GT in India marks a significant milestone, reintroducing the high-performance coupe that had exited the country in 2020 following the discontinuation of the first-gen model. The luxury manufacturer has brought in the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 and GT 63 Pro. They are priced at ₹ 3 crore and ₹ 3.65 crore respectively. Both prices are ex-showroom.
Bookings are currently open for both variants. While deliveries for the AMG GT 63 are slated for Q4 2025, the Pro variant will reach customers early next year.
Globally unveiled in August 2023, the new AMG GT brings with it a host of updates that go beyond just cosmetic changes. Unlike the earlier iteration, which was a strict two-seater, the latest model adopts a more practical 2+2 seating configuration. Its overall dimensions have grown noticeably—182 mm longer, 45 mm wider, and 66 mm taller—resulting in a roomier cabin and improved road presence. The wheelbase, extended by 70 mm, contributes to better passenger space and improved ride comfort.
The second-gen GT 63 adopts a 2+2 seating configuration alongside a 70 mm longer wheelbase that allows for enhanced interior comfort.
Design-wise, the second-gen GT continues to carry the DNA of its predecessor with subtle aerodynamic enhancements and modernised lighting elements. While the profile remains unmistakably AMG GT, the updates lend it a more mature and versatile persona. The interior has also seen a significant overhaul with a new AMG-spec steering wheel, sculpted sport seats with integrated headrests, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, and an 11.6-inch vertical touchscreen infotainment system.
Under the hood, the AMG GT 63 is powered by a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine that puts out 585 bhp and 800 Nm of torque. The powertrain is coupled with a 9-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and Mercedes' 4Matic+ all-wheel-drive system. The car accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.2 seconds and reaches a top speed of 315 km/h, showcasing serious performance credentials.

The GT 63 Pro is the performance-oriented version that gets the AMG Aerodynamic Package as standard while stripping off the rear seats.
For those seeking an even more performance-oriented version, Mercedes-AMG has introduced the GT 63 Pro. This is a track-ready version that gets the AMG Aerodynamic Package as standard and retains only the front row seats. This variant features a more potent tune of the same V8 engine, now delivering 612 hp and 850 Nm of torque. While the 0-100 km/h time remains nearly identical at 3.1 seconds, the Pro version is 0.5 seconds quicker in the 0-200 km/h sprint, achieving it in 10.9 seconds. Its top speed is also marginally higher at 317 km/h.
Mechanical and aerodynamic improvements further differentiate the GT 63 Pro. It receives better cooling systems, revised aerodynamics, larger brakes, lightweight wheels, and upgraded tires. The downforce at the rear has been increased by 15 kg, while front-end lift is reduced by 30 kg, enhancing high-speed stability and handling precision.

F1 Austrian Grand Prix: Lando Norris puts McLaren on pole; Oscar Piastri qualifies third
Lando Norris bounced back from his collision in Canada to put McLaren on pole position for the Austrian Formula One Grand Prix on Saturday while championship-leading teammate Oscar Piastri qualified third. Ferrari's Charles Leclerc joined Norris on the front row with teammate Lewis Hamilton fourth, raising the Italian team's hopes after a difficult weekend so far. Red Bull's Max Verstappen qualified only seventh at his team's home circuit after pulling out of his final flying effort when Alpine's Pierre Gasly spun at the last corner and briefly brought out yellow flags. Piastri was also forced to bale but had been slower than Norris in both of the first two phases. Norris, who needs a strong result after a collision with Piastri in Canada two weeks ago, is 22 points behind the Australian in the championship after 10 of 24 races. 'I did what I planned to do and when I plan to do something and it goes right, it normally goes very, very well. A good day and it has been a good weekend for me so far, so hopefully we can keep it up,' said Norris.

RED FLAG George Russell, last year's race winner, qualified fifth for Mercedes but faced an investigation for a potential unsafe release in the pitlane. Liam Lawson will line up sixth for Racing Bulls, ahead of Verstappen, with Brazilian rookie Gabriel Bortoleto making it into the final phase for the first time and qualifying eighth for Sauber. Italian rookie Kimi Antonelli was ninth fastest for Mercedes and Gasly completed the top 10. The second phase of qualifying was red-flagged when the trackside grass at turn 10 caught fire, the latest of a series of such incidents. The governing FIA said the fire was caused by a car going off track, rather than by sparks from the titanium skid blocks, and carried out additional dampening of the grass before the final top 10 shootout. Verstappen's teammate Yuki Tsunoda and Williams' Carlos Sainz made early exits, neither getting through the opening phase. 'There's damage in the car, for sure. The car is undriveable ... it's pulling under braking, no load in high speed,' said Sainz, who qualified 19th with only Sauber's Nico Hulkenberg behind. He explained later that the team had put new brakes on the car for qualifying, as usual, but it started pulling to one side immediately.

Motor racing-Mercedes talk of Verstappen is a lot of noise, says Horner
SPIELBERG, Austria, - Red Bull team boss Christian Horner dismissed talk of Max Verstappen moving to Mercedes, maybe even next year, as just noise on Saturday and suggested that the four-times world champion was irritated by it. HT Image Mercedes have George Russell out of contract at the end of the year and both the British driver and team boss Toto Wolff have referenced the possibility of Verstappen becoming available at some point. "It's a lot of noise. I think Max gets quite annoyed by it and we are very clear with the contract that we have with Max until 2028," Horner told Sky Sports television after Austrian Grand Prix qualifying. "Anything is entirely speculative that is being said but we tend not to pay too much attention to it. "I can imagine that George is frustrated, he hasn't been given a contract yet. But that's between him and his team. The situation with Max, we know clearly where we're at, as does Max," he added. "Everything is subject to noise and within any contract it remains confidential between the parties." Verstappen is known to have a release clause in his contract which would allow him to leave if certain performance targets are not met. The Dutch driver is third overall in the championship, 43 points behind McLaren's Oscar Piastri, but qualified only seventh on Saturday for his team's home race at the Red Bull Ring with McLaren's Lando Norris on pole. Verstappen recognised he would not have been able to take pole position even without the yellow flags that forced him to abort his final effort. "FP3 wasn't too bad but somehow in qualifying it just completely disappeared, there wasn't a single corner where I felt happy with the car," said the champion. "That is of course a big problem with qualifying. "Hopefully tomorrow we can at least be competitive with Ferrari or Mercedes. I don't know because with the balance that I had in quali, for sure that is not going to look great for tomorrow."

Max Verstappen off the pace with 'undriveable' car in qualifying for Red Bull home race
SPIELBERG, Austria — Max Verstappen felt his Red Bull car was 'undriveable' as he found himself off the pace at his Formula 1 team's home race. HT Image A lack of grip and an unfortunately timed yellow flag both played a role as Verstappen placed seventh in qualifying at the Red Bull Ring, where he's won five times, to further dent his hopes of defending the F1 title. A frustrating day for Verstappen and the wider Red Bull team came amid widespread speculation over his future after Mercedes driver George Russell indicated on Thursday he believed Verstappen was in talks about a move. 'The car is completely undriveable. I have no grip," Verstappen told the team over the radio part way through Saturday qualifying. Things got worse later on as he had to back off his final lap of the session because of a yellow flag. Speaking to British broadcaster Sky Sports after the session, Verstappen indicated he believed his car was 'miles off pole" set by McLaren's Lando Norris, even without the yellow flag. 'Hopefully tomorrow we can at least be competitive with Ferrari or Mercedes," Verstappen said. "I don't know even, because with the balance we had in quali that's for sure not going to look great for tomorrow, but we will analyze everything.' Verstappen's teammate Yuki Tsunoda was even less competitive as he qualified 18th and complained he, too, was lacking grip. Norris said he and McLaren expected Red Bull 'to be quicker here this weekend' after both teams brought upgraded parts to Austria, but said he wouldn't write off Verstappen. Piastri leads Norris by 22 points in the standings with Verstappen third, 21 points further back. 'Max has been our main contender for every race this season," Norris said. "Just because he's had a slightly worse qualifying today, definitely not going to count him out of of the race tomorrow and definitely not going to count him out for the rest of the season.' auto racing: /hub/auto-racing This article was generated from an automated news agency feed without modifications to text.
