Mercedes-AMG GT 63, GT 63 Pro Launched In India, Prices Inside
Last Updated:
The GT 63 twins will be brought to India as CBUs and will rival the Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS.
Mercedes-Benz India has reintroduced its iconic AMG GT series with two powerful models — the AMG GT 63 and the AMG GT 63 Pro.
Priced at Rs 3 crore and RS 3.65 crore (ex-showroom) respectively, these high-performance machines mark the return of the AMG GT nameplate after a three-year break. This launch is part of the brand's ambitious plan to roll out eight new models in 2025.
Earlier this year, Mercedes also launched the EQS 450 SUV, the electric G-Class, and the luxurious Maybach SL 680.
Performance
Both versions come equipped with a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine. While the GT 63 produces 585bhp and 800Nm of torque, the more aggressive GT 63 Pro churns out 612bhp and 850Nm.
A 9-speed AMG Speedshift automatic gearbox and Mercedes' 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive help the GT 63 hit 0–100 km/h in just 3.2 seconds, and the Pro does it in 3.1 seconds. Top speeds touch 317 km/h.
The Pro also features track-focused upgrades like ceramic brakes, aerodynamic aids, and AMG Active Ride Control for better high-speed handling.
Dimension
The new GT 63 is noticeably larger than the earlier model. It's longer by 182mm, wider by 45mm, and taller by 66mm. The increased size also means a more spacious cabin and a bigger boot, making it a more practical luxury coupe.
Features
The feature highlights include a 12.3-inch digital display, an 11.9-inch touchscreen, and comfortable sports seats. Buyers can choose eye-catching paint finishes like Alpine Grey Solid or Patagonia Red Bright.
Deliveries and Competition
Deliveries of the GT 63 will begin by the end of this year, while the GT 63 Pro will arrive next year. These new AMG GT models will rival the Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS and will be brought in as fully imported units.

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.
