The new Mercedes-AMG XX is a concept car that has been unveiled by the popular car manufacturer, with a production version expected soon.
The design features a range of cutting edge motor and battery technology for the all-electric car to replace the current Mercedes-AMG GT Four Door.
It is expected to be the most aerodynamic, as a main focus, and one of the fastest cars Mercedes has ever made - even more than their Forumla-1 inspired AMG One.
There will be due to the 1,360hp from three new electric motors fitted into the vehicle, giving it a combined power output of one megawatt.
This means the new AMG XX will be able to reach a top speed of 224mph, which is 5mph faster than the AMG One.
Whilst a zero to 60mph has not been revealed for the car, it is likely to have the fastest accelerating power of any car from the brand.
It will therefore be more powerful, and lighter than a Porsche Taycan Turbo GT, and may even break the 2.0-second barrier.
Other exciting features include speakers in the headlights, carbon fibre bucket seat customised to passengers body shapes using 3D printed foam panels, and chequered flag ambient lighting on the interior.
The speakers will be able to make different noises at low or fast speeds, and warn pedestrians of the cars presence.
There is no rear window on the car, but there is a panel between the taillights which enables owners to customise their own message on the back.

As an electric car, the AMG XX is expected to be four times more powerful than the latest Tesla at 850kw DC.
That means in just five minutes, the car can be charged 20-80 per cent, if a station that supports it can be found.
Although no official figure for the car's range has been determined, it is expected to get around 300 miles on a single charge.
It is uncertain when the new Mercedes-AMG XX Concept will go on sale, but it has surely inspired production for a car to go on the market in the near future.
