4 cylinders for that long ahh hood is insane 😭😭
No different than a V8 though
Nah, honestly at least it’s not as long as the older/previous gen,s still kinda wild though fr
I hate the long hood mercedes designs. Look so ugly
Womp womp
faxxxxxxx
It wil be 100K+ and I'd take an Emira all day.
Emira is a small nimble car but you won't get the rest.
I’m taking a 911 carrera all day
LC500
@@Bizmyurt Don't need the rest for this money. The Emira looks better, with the V6 it sounds better, it's lighter and cheaper too. If I want something more luxurious then I'll just get a H6 718. An AMG with a 4 cylinder at 100K is just not happening. 😂
Sales will be the same as the new c63… close to 0
A GT53 with their 3.0 straight 6 would be 🔥
I'm ngl I work at the Tuscaloosa plant where we build the sunset and the gle 53 coupe is a beast,,, I've never thought I would like an inline 6 like that
The GT55 is a V8 so I don't think there will be a 53 that's too close
@@hami_1012no the problem is the amg gt is a amg only product, not a regular merc.
And this stupid a*ses at MB can't put a non-handcrafted engine in an amg only car, as if we give a damn a bout a 4 cyl with a plaquette.
Won‘t happen unfortunately
This would be the perfect sweet spot.
An amg gt less cylinder than the m2 and m340i what a joke
@@Renirode you now what i mean its not a fix lil kid
@@deathmark1940stop trolling
@@Renirode yh nice answer
@@deathmark1940 yes you deleted the other one you troll and you named me little kid ... buy your stupid ugly bmw hope you will never be a mercedes driver lol
Inaccurate comparison. It's a base model car, so it wouldn't be equal to any M car. A correct assessment is to pair it against a main rivial the 840i coupe which does in fact have a inline 6 standard.
Tbh i think all the German brands have taken off with their interiors. Mercedes interiors look flashy but feel less sturdy and buttoned down
$100k+ roadster with a 4-cylinder, 0-60 in the $30k ecoboost mustang territory, no AWD option, and long term horrible reliability due to the hybrid components.
Sounds like a vehicle made with the target audience being specifically Californian hair salon owners.
Looks wise I prefer the subtleness of the 43
Same I like the grill more
Crisper, cleaner, less OTT.
These 4 cylinders in cars like the C63 and now this GT43 will be end of the AMG
The 4 cylinders and EV cars are hurting the AMG brand.
@@richardlabeja Not sure about EVs but 4 cyls might
Sales of the C63 are close to 0. Nobody saw that coming
@@mrtwister5093 yeah, that is crazy. Hope they learn something from it. They are following the F1 path. Cars are getting bigger, heavier, more powerful with smaller engines, hybrid, and ultimately faster. But... these are road cars. Why?
If it was manual and lightweight version, tbe 4 cylinder could be cool
True
SL43 lol but no one is dropping 100k for a stick shift it's just not the target demographic since Sticks are for poors and copers
@@boygonewhoopdataZZ tell that to T50 buyers
i dont think people should be mad at this, itll serve as a competitor to 718 and emira. hope its nice and light with good handling. plus 3-4 years this will be super affordable and a daily daily with a big hatch. there is a v8 for the people that want one.
No one cares if they get mad or delighted by this. In both cases they won't be able to afford one
This should have atleast been a 6 cylinder.
@@rishinarang9966 you would make the CLE obsolete with that. making a cheaper GT is risky enough already
What no the 43 would be less sporty, less practical, and more expensive than the CLE@@pramey. Sure its cheaper but its still 60k vs 100k
@@rishinarang9966 a CLE 53 will be around 85-90k not 60k which is treading on GT territory if they do make it 6cyl. they have to make a 4 to balance out the 8 for SECA ratings for it to be elligible to be sold. the non amg models that are 60k are very different from this.
As a owner of the CLA 45… that 4cyc ain’t nothing to sneeze at
That giant crooked interior center screen is awful. The MBUX is great but the giant fingerprint filled screen is bad. And this is coming from someone who’s had over 10 AMGand black series cars.
The grille in the AMG’s these days reminds me of Maserati
Eh as a Maserati and Merc owner I don't think so😅 Sadly Merc losing what they had 5 years ago
this has to be the worlds most expensive 4 cylinder
SL43
Why does the 4 cylinder have a better looking design?
It has a less sporty design
@@PaulJackson157You cannot look at the GT43's front and say it's not sporty. It's literally AMG GT R front with that grill. The GT55 and GT63 looks more like the GT Black Series, which just doesn't work IMO. Look alright in the GT3 and GT2 track cars, but not on the road cars. It's like the BMW kidney grill on the G8x series. It's just too big to appeal to the chinese market.
Those poor engines are going to catch a cold with all that intake.
@@SgtKanyo never said not sporty, I said less sporty, which is correct.
Great analysis- thank you. Shame there’s no 6 cylinder GT 53 Goldilocks version.
I still feel like the 1st gen pre-panamericana grill amg gt is the best looking. clean lines and just more elegant
It’s really a shame because the outgoing GT was the last of the long hooded two-seaters. no more Viper, F-Type or Corvette in that segment
Good video!
We have the GT63 here at the AMG Performance Center in Germany and I really like the car!
Over 100k for 400 horsepower an a 4 cylinder, that is an awful deal
The front looks similar to a Maserati
Im having a hard differentiating between the sl and this amg43 ..
When did they release it?? Didnt see anything
Mercedes interiors are the most stylized of the 3 big Germans but by FAR the flimsiest and cheapest feeling. They creak and then door panels push in even in this model sadly.
I own an S class Mercedes and everything is covered in real lether, real wood trims and real metal swtiches / buttons. I guess its all about what you are paying for your car, isnt it?
@@yanis_s500 I’ve had the coupe and it was great but try a C or an E. Try this. The center consoles creak and the door panels feel like they’re cardboard. But yes real leather real wood and look amazing even at the C class level. But get into a 3 series and there isn’t any creaking and they feel as solid as an S class coupe.
more space for an aftermarket intercooler; need we be reminded of the 190evo2?
Mercedes just has to improve interior quality so much creaking
The comparison with the prior gen should by the facelift years (US 2018+).
4 Cylinder for 150K 😂
Idk why it honestly matters 416hp from a 4 cylinder. Same performance smaller engine and better gas mileage
It's exactly why they don't make v12s anymore you can get the same power from a v8 or v6 with way better efficiency
@@gotworc 1. presitge
2. sound
3. smooth engine
4. less engine displacement for the same power = critical in the long term
5. the 4 cylinder swallows just as much as the 6/8 cylinder. Power costs energy no matter how it is generated. Efficiency is not better at maximum power, only when you're creeping along the roads.
Lotus emira
Manual
And by the way I prefer the look of the previous gen GT
clearly mercedes benz is trying to target the porsche boxster audience
100K AND 4 CILINDERS DO NOT BELONG IN THE SAME SENTENCE
Don't know if it's something you are interested in making a video, or thought about it before and dismissed the idea, but I just realized that the current Mazda 3 is practically begging to be redesigned as an Alfa Romeo hatchback. Since Fiat and Mazda had recently joined in converting the MX-5 ND in the 124 spider, do you think it would be interesting to see how the japanese car would look as an italian hot hatch (oh, a busso V6 sound)? I'd love to see what your vision on this. Best wishes from Brasil! 👋🤓
Wouldn't also share parts with the others, like dodge.
Great Video. Would love to see a video about the new front facelift of the AMG GT 4 Door Front! ✌🏻
tastefully done. well done Merc
400+ horses, rear-wheel drive, a car built from scratch by AMG! I like
How's the interior quality though?
I agree with your verdict about this cars
It’s a beautiful
Should check out the new GT 4 door an actual good update.
They should've stopped with the 4 cylinder coupe at the SL
I don't want anything AMG 4-cyl lol No matter how fast it is.
I like the look of the AMG GT43 just fine, and it that yellow....
Old one is a car from the 60s born in the 2010s
Yooooo. I can’t believe that you are the first CZcamsr to share this news 😢
On the second thought, this could make sense if they could build a 4 cyl close to Honda's high-revving screamers. Reasonably economical and fun
Should have been the M256 inline 6 with 450hp and RWD. That would have been a drivers car. I have a 53 myself and it sounds WORLDS better than the goofy 4 cyl making a trillion hp. Also suits a car like this more, I6's have always been made for higher end cars
Thanks to Mercedes u can now define a proper line to when the Mercedes models went downhill and it’s when the 63 lost their v8s and when the gt and sl share the same chassis
Mercedes has been using a 2 liter 4 cylinder in German DTM racing for the past 3 years and their four cylinder is plenty fast
Wtf were they thinking. This pretty much a more expensive c63 now
Mercedes should've picked a darker color than yellow 💛 for their press GT43. The front, at certain angles, looks a "little" too much like the 3rd gen Ford Focus ST.
I don't like how they made this thing BIGGER. The previous GT was already pretty big and wide, in part due to the strict front-mid-engined layout. They've scrapped it now and they still had to make it even bigger??
Believe it or not, i think this is the right way for Mercedes, they came out with a lesser sporty version of the amg gt, yet looks nice and cleaner at the same time.
Wonder if there are actually difference between the 55 and 63
Might be a new tuner platform!
maybe for engine swap yeah 😂
For 100k nah 🥴
You can just wait a year or two for the v8 one to depreciate 50 percent.
Some yall acting like Benz only made the GT a 4 pot. It’s the base model chill out 😂
They went too far with the downsizing. This a more expensive c63 now
Enough for many people who exhibit cars but not race them .
if the pricing is good I don’t see a problem with it. It’s like the 718. But seeing how pricing is on the A45/C63 I bet this will be way to expensive justifying „just“ a 4 banger
Can't wait to bodykit this into a GTR or a black series in the future 😂
Did they really make the C63 AMG 2,0 mistake again??
They have a v8 model also.
Round exhaust plz on 63 it just looks better
I agree that Mercedes has the best interiors of any German marque currently. This looks like a great car but for that much money, I would prefer a 6-cylinder engine with forced induction and/or hybrid drivetrain. It would be embarrassing for an owner to say there's a 2.0L 4-banger when asked what engine powers this car.
The AMG GT with a four-cylinder engine reminds me of the Mustang GT with EcoBoost. Just nothing anyone needs. Give it a six-cylinder in the base line for fuck's sake. They have learned nothing from their C63 disaster.
Btw..the iconic GT proportions are not comparable with the new ones. :)
The car is beautiful but I have been a bit confused by mercedes decisions lately. The crazy thing is, they get rid of the S class coupe, E class coupe, and the C class coupe for the new CLE, which is a major downgrade from the E class coupe. now it appears they have downgraded the GT, at least in terms of design because from my perspective, the GT is now starting to resemble the previous E class and S class coupes. especially with the lack of the extremely long hood in the previous Version of the GT!
3.0 M256 would have been better for a small engine option.
I think i'd prefer it to be electric
C63s de bu motor 476ps 545nm tork
Gt 43 coupe de 425ps 500nm tork
50ps ve 50nm tork daha az
Olması gereken 500ps 600nm torktu
All of the germans have horrible interirors because they use a touchscreen. Climate control and volume should always be a physical knob. Same with headlights (Chevy Colorado, I'm looking at you....)
Volume knob are honestly useless when majority of newer cars have them on the steering wheel. This makes the knob ineffective when drivers have to reach beyond the wheel for audio.
I’ll be stuck upgrading to a ‘21 version of whatever Mercedes because of that and the party bus “ambient“ lighting on the recent models. And the iPad.
@@daroob the s class has the iPad for 21. Which is honestly better than the TV screen.
I have a 2022 bmw m4 and the volume knob is still there and the climate controls are still there.
@@ii_dynasty right. MB upgrades different models at different times. I’d like to think I could get the GLS next.
WHAAAAAAT IS HAPPENING!!????? we are in the worst moment of car history it’s breaking my heart
If only they would put a manual in it.
This should have atleast been a 6 cylinder.
They needed to increase their ESG score…
It shouldn’t even exist. They sell 6 SLs now
Looks like Mercedes took some visual cues off of a Porsche. Minus the front end .
So Mercedes just made a Boxster...
please Mercedes, stop putting the star logo everywhere you can on new cars
Sleek and stylish
I’m not even mad, I’m not a v8 or nothing person, I just wished they would’ve put a i6
Why do they keep doing this?? It never works and they know it by now. I mean the Jaguar F-Type tried it and even with it being a significantly less expensive car than this it didn’t work, then Mercedes tried it themselves with the SL43 and my local MB dealer says it’s the car he has possibly had the least interest in next the the new C63 4-cylinder 🤦🏻♂️
They’re trying to compensate the huge loss of the C63 sales using their remaining engines? It looks good, yes, however it has the same design lines as big bro, feels like trying too hard to sell something that isn’t meant to be
Looks a bit like the bmw g29 z4
omg mercedes give me a break and save the 4 cylinder engines for economy cars like a corolla…
The previous car looks much better than the new. Don’t get me started on 4 cylinder.
tech is deflationary overtime. i owned 2017 M5 V8 twin turbo. to intro a v4 with with $100k price tag is a disgrace.
it becomes a more elegant fluid GT coupé. i like the new design. mercedes is trying to erase all the super-detailed shapes for more elegance. about the brutality of the 4 cylinder i think that they know what they do.
Kinda looks like a cheaper Austin Martin,,,a quick glance,,
no idea why would anyone buy this without a v8
yeah i want the 4cylinder car
Supposedly the 4 cylinders is a 4.8 liter engine with a single large turbo and a large cam, just kidding I’m lying, 4 cylinders are you fs?
The 2008SL550,, only was 400hp,, v-8 and can do 150-170 mph depending on the driver,, it sucks that your doing 8 to 6 to 4?,, down sizing ,,, kinda cheap s the brand, I hated the 6 cylinder came to the USA in the sl550 ti SL 450,, that sad. Only good for people who can’t afford the Gt55
Oh fuck no. 415hp isn’t a small amount but on a small 4 cylinder? That’s a disaster in the making if you rip it on the daily. Should have been 30/70 AWD to at least get it off the line faster than its 6 cylinder competitors.
Responsible adults don't rip it on a daily, only children do stuff like that.
4 cylinder is not enough, needs at least 5
but i think those get bought to impress women and they will do that with 3 cylinders
C43 engine in a gt is blasphemous
They lost me at 48v... urgh
Only a sucker would pay over $100k for a 2.0 4-cylinder
Eğer ülkende ÖTV yoksa evet haklısın
young getter getter
I do not care how much power or how sexy they attempt to make it appear, I refuse to personally own a 4-cylinder version of anything. They're gradually trying to wean us from V8s. It started with the V6, now it's a turbocharged 4-cylinder. These engines do not have the deep rumble because they simply do not have the displacement. They do not have a wide, flat torque curve (needs less gears, freight train pull) because they do not have the displacement.
They just made a car absolutely no one would even consider, let alone buy. If it were to cost like 50-60k, then It's a good value. But "estimated to be over 100k" just sounds insulting. Keep in mind it will be slower than a C43, and that C43 Costs 60-70k.
Ridiculous! The GT55's MSRP is 16,000 dollars more than the 2021 AMG GT's and has 54hp less. A downgrade in every single way, yet they make it more expensive.
That 4 cylinder will make an excellent daily
But for a daily you would probably pick something practical with 4 doors, wouldn't you?
@@sergeibatiuk3468 not really. The room in the boot is good enough for me.

Mercedes isn’t the best out of the German executive brands….both in terms of quality and design. It goes, BMW, Mercedes….and then Audi. Unbelievable how far Audi have fallen in this regard.
Omg Tats sad😢
