- Say hello to the all-new Mercedes-AMG GT!
Mat’s flown over to Austria to get up close and personal with the new GT 63, and he’s about to take you on a tour of this all-new super sports car!
Regarding the design, the GT is based on the AMG SL. Around the rear are some similarities to the SL, such as the black glossy trim on the bumper and the diffuser - although the GT’s diffuser is more complex than that on the SL! Along the sides, the doors have been smoothed compared to the old GT, and it also comes with flush door handles. Up top, the GT is equipped with AMG’s Panamericana Grille and there’s a pair of air intakes under the headlights.
Step inside and the most notable thing is that the GT is now a four-seater! Sure, it’s pretty cramped in the back but gone are the days when the standard GT was only available with 2 seats. Elsewhere, the interior is pretty similar to the SL. It comes with the same seats, as well as the same infotainment set-up and digital dials. It also comes with a glass roof!
Then we come to the engine, and under the bonnet, you’ll find a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 that can deliver 585hp and 800Nm! Moreover, there’s no hybrid technology to be found here - the all-new GT is 100% petrol-powered!
We don’t know the price yet, but you can guarantee it’s likely to be relatively similar to the SL, and when you consider the AMG SL 63 costs over £171,000, it’s unlikely to come cheap! But will it be worth it? You’ll need to stick with Mat and see for yourself!

At a buffet, I personally sneak corn into the buffet so others can enjoy them. I hide 6 boiled corn ears in my jacket pockets. It is a joy for me to see other patrons of the establishment eat my corn thinking they were part of the buffet.
Mat is the king of asking these managers uncomfortable questions🤣
very true😂
yes i noticed that, he asks them in a nonchalant way, like a kid who asks uncomfortable questions, so they must answer it xD
Exactly, I'm all for it tho 😂😂📈
That’s what makes Matt great! He gets away with it
Loveeee it!! I keep noticing and seriously appreciating it. Don’t fluff it! Way to go Mattttttttty !🎉
The playful tension between Mat and the people from these companies is always fun to see. He makes them prove that their car is good which is what a journalist should do.
😢😢😢
Calm down he’s married with kids
Facts. He's the real deal. He remembers us, the consumers, when he's reviewing or overviewing a car.
Even a Mercedes engineer knows about the Sticker of Truth 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hey, there's playful tension and there is mentioning a competing legendary model (911) 30 seconds into the interview. Man's an asshole, honestly.
Respect to Matt for calling him out on all the flaws ❤
@@Carter-bu7ld That is quite beautiful but I hope u r not a bot, and I hope by writing these lovely sentences (honestly) u do not attract the attention of those who will just reply rudely and pass by.
Right, flaws 🙄
Brings back trust in AMG after the disastrous C63. Mercedes manager handled himself very well in a tough review.
Amg are bringing back v8 engines in c63 from 2026.

@@sohigamer141Already said not coming
@@vadwvea7153 ah it' s not coming, my bad, there were some pretty strong rumours before but now the merc CEO confirmed that the rumours were fake.
this manager had great attitude and knowledge .. true friendly and professional
Props for the manager for being so friendly in his interaction with Mat. One of the best car launch ‘interviews’ of this kind I have ever seen. Putting the man in the back seats was simply hilarious! 😂
Mat was definitely consumer-conscious during this interview. Most car CZcamsrs just praise every car they feature especially when a staff member is present.
That’s why I watch him
@@JonnyBeoulveYeah props to Mat - he didn't hold back, dropping the "911" word a few times. So much better than just basically being another person in their marketing department. I guess when you're as big as Carwow you can do that and still get invited to future launch events 😂
@@milinddixit6583💯indeed
Yeah and he didn‘t just get offended when Mat mentioned other brands
I'm actually seriously impressed with the Mercedes AMG manager's charisma in this video! It's not every day you see someone in a high-stakes industry who can effortlessly connect with journalists!
ye he is actually a very cool guy also did what everyone in Merc must do when it's posible roast audi
Really cool, calm and honest guy 👍🏻
Still, no Christian Koenigsegg...
Actually
I'm not sure I'd call him charismatic (he is German, after all), but he did a great job and it shows that he is very much into what he's doing.
Genuinely don't think I've seen a car review with a member from the company that was as entertaining as this. At this point it feels like I've seen every car video on CZcams and this one really stands out above the others, congratulations on a really fun video!
I absolutely love the way Mat is asking these questions in the face of a representative because it’s exactly what we are all thinking but most people would be to scared to ask the same questions
You are definitely CIA@@Carter-bu7ld
Mat comparing the Mercedes to Porsche and roasting the tight space in the back seats in front of the AMG guy is the Mattest thing ever
why even put the back seats
@@chips2729or even V10 type 2.
@@chips2729 Because this is a sports coupe, and a lot of customers prefer rear seats even if they are very tight than no rear seats at all. Kids and shorter adults can sit there. You can take your dog with you.
You can also put small bags, purses, laptops etc on the rear seats and quickly get to them. Far more convenient than putting them in a boot.
Mercedes loves to compare it to the 911 so he’s just doing the same
@@adfasfuiuiui1056I disagree; two seats is always the best configuration for sports cars. Making it a 2+2 adds unnecessary weight, restricts front space and usually spoils the exterior lines of the car's design because of the back seats' headroom. But I can understand that Merc-AMG want to compete with Porsche and give them props for managing to keep the exterior lines sporty, despite the back seats arrangement.
I love how Matthaus can Match Matt in attitude and quick answers when he's asking some of these questions. No awkwardness. Just completely straightforward
But man he gave him a hard time… I love it
love it too but I think its Matthias
@@einsdox*Matthäus, like the german Name for Matthew the apostle
Okay, this was THE best showcase I have witnessed on this platform. Mat, you are always top-notch in presentation and stern with your gripes about a car. Matthias, you have been the most enjoyable spokesperson I have seen come from any company; you were blunt, honest, and hilarious paired with Mat. Keep it up, the both of you
Lovely looking car. Well done to Matt for challenging the manufacturers and being honest about the things you don’t like rather than just sucking up to them. 👏🏻
I loved his response about the options costing money. He was honest
He tells it like it is, without sugarcoating
Agree. It also costing $500.000
Does that make him better
@@purwantiallan5089there is absolutely no way a GT is starting $500,000
Anyone who can afford this car can afford those options easily, so costing extra isn't much of a concern.
It's moments like this that remind me why Mat is the top car reviewer on CZcams. His genuine questions and playful jabs paired with a manager who can take it on the chin and give back just as good? Pure gold. 👏 And shoutout to Mercedes for being confident enough in their product to let the conversation flow naturally. This is what real car journalism looks like!
@@Carter-bu7ld this is a car video bro
Are you CIA?@@Carter-bu7ld
@Carter-bu7ld Dude, No!
At Ferari, Matt would be talking to the fishes 😂
*proper nouns obscured for channel preservation
After Doug demuro
I love how he’s not affraid to scrutinize parts of the cars in front of their makers
Love it. No hesitation while asking the right questions, even if uncomfortable.
So refreshing and what makes this channel stand out from any competitor.
I like how he doesn't hold back when someone else is there, he asks actual questions that people need to know
Plus the typical exhausts 😂
3:25 Mat is savage. Props for the Manager for being honest XD
Lmao! That's what we love about Matt, he doesn't hold back, and even these major car companies respect him for it and give a respectable answer.
And I really liked the honest response 😂
The have to max. Profit with these toys 😂
Can't believe he actually said that lol
@@hkn777Matt always telling its truth about Mercedes man.
I liked that you went into detail for each part of the car, and that you weren't afraid of asking hard questions or being critical of certain aspects of the car. That's what most consumers who are considering one of these cars want to know.
Great overview.
I absolutely love when people are open like this, Matheus wasn't afraid to say they are a company and packages are another way of bringing in money. It shows transparency between the buyer and the manufacturer.
FINALLY, I can finally say I LOVE a new car design release...inside and out! Good job, Mercedes.
It looks too basic. Doesn’t look aggressive at all it’s more suited for formal people
Way too basic like 2003 SLR McLaren.
If it's too basic then let it be, it's still better than most of the other modern cars.
Those who say "too basic" need new eyes!
@@ilfouco1541it’s a GT car
Just love how truthful Matt is with even the manufacturer themselves, straight up questions! 😂 The best reviewer, since the Carbuyer era!
Matt always telling truth.
I got the feeling matt can be an annoying little prick sometimes 😂😂. I think big Matt felt like hoofing him at times 😂
carwow is funded by german car industry
14:04
Mat: “How you doing now? Tell me when it hurts” 😂
AMG’s every manager so far with Mat: Oh! Come on! Everytime! 😂
😂😂😂
I love how Mat will ask the hard questions and this video doesn't end up looking like an ad. Fantastic video and reveal. Will definitely consider trading in my 2020 AMG GTC for a new one.
Props to Mercedes. Great looking car and for the manager it's of course not easy being put on a spot like that. Hope to have the money someday to pay for a beauty like this 😊
Mercedes done its awesome job on those cars.
@hassyg4083 how is it ripped off? 😂
@@autograndeunlimitedhehehe German create huge options for everything to milk you of money everyone knows
@hassyg4083 lmao milk you? They aren't forcing you to buy it. You only pay for what you want unlike japs forcing higher price tag whether you want the options or not LOL
@@hassyg4083any car and i mean any car in this category gives you a multitude of options to personalize the car. At this prise point, if you think options are ripping you off, you’re too poor for the car or just don’t like those kind of cars.
4:27 love that they know Matt uses a stick to check exhaust 😂😂😂😂
at almost 8.5 millions subs of mostly car lovers, it's expectedly so that the car manager knows it. xD
Carwow stick of truth😈
Keep doing these videos with companies' representatives. It is so nice seeing their passion no matter what brand you are fan of.
Love this Mat, keep the honest critical and personals views, no other journalists does anymore and its priceless to see product managers have to try and reply! I think Mathias did well! This is a very nice car, heavy but surely will drive and feel great.
6:45 He thought Mat would ask if its standard and he looked so proud telling him that it is 😂
That had me dying lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What a beauty. The designers did a great job. A practical supercar too.
i dont understand the merc designers....they fail with latest gt`s .....and still cant handle....what is the massage behind this?
back looks awsome, front looks awfull....like an face of an strange insect.....this grill, looks like a big bad face
everyone learn in design, that this is the face of this smile like this : 😰 🙀😨😧☹
and mercedes use it for thei top car
and the frontlightdesigns....undefinable design with no indetification und looks like eyes popping out, or eyes of an insect....
this are not mercedeslike
really really sad....who ever is work as a disigner on merc, needs to do chinese small cars for strange peoples
whats that hard to take this cool back and just convert it to the front to make it a straight, understandable design....and this foking grill....make it smaller an straight
not like a freezing face
take the legendary merccars....big straight grills with straight lights....but not round oversized, bad screaming face
This is no longer a super car just a fast car. They totally ruined this.
i dont know why they didn’t make the car more powerful at least bring it 612 hp and 850nm
13:50
He knew what was coming😂😂😂
What a fun reveal with Mercedes-AMG! Mat did a phenomenal interview and I enjoyed every bit of this review!
It looks pretty bad ass. Can’t wait to see what the future GTR’s and PRO’s is gonna be like.
Next year i rent this car for the weekend
Really really heavy!
I wait for the AMG GT Black Series.
It looks like a Mercedes Porsche xD
@@Schaufelor WTF 🤣
22:01 wow, Mat directly pitching the Porsche vs the Mercedes 🤣
@@Winter_Wyvern1 yea🤣
911, M8 and R8 are the main competitors so I’m not surprised
yeh honda better
This is a great interview that went with the review. Car reviewers definitely need to do more questions & answers with the manufacturer and throw questions at them on behalf of the consumer. No tiptoes.
Matt you should do more interviews with Brand executives like this it was not only fun but full of interesting information about the car
whoever designed this needs a raise.
Exactly, It looks way better than those ev jellybeans.
@@kishlayverma6622even if/when this gets electrified, it will look a lot better than the current EQ models.
Absolutely!
The front reminds me of the BMW z4
It looks worse than the first gen. The proportions aren’t as good
Sincerely love that he voices his gripes, especially with the infotainment system. The lack of buttons and dials is frustrating! Bring back the buttons!
I never liked the previous one, but I love this update, absolutely beautiful 😍
You don't like selfish cars you want a family car.. Plenty of other choices than this. This car is going to fail in sales.
I don't like how they make it a 4 seater
Matthias is very good here - Funny and charismatic. I love his comment about the AMG badge being standard 👏
The car looks absolutely fabulous but the weight increase is too much.
17cm longer, with 2 extra seats, and the 4-matic system, a weight increase was inevitable.
@@Carter-bu7ldno
I actually like the front end quite a lot. Reminds me of the vantage in a way
Yes, reminds me of a BMW Z4 with those headlights
Definitely see AM I'm the design
This car is beyond beautiful. It’s absolutely stunning to look at. Can’t wait to see it drive
the look on Mathias's face at the end when Mat asks for our preference between that GT63 & a 911 Turbo S
We're company We're not just doing it for fun😂😂 3:33
ahahaha, at least the manager wasa friendly
Love your review style, I was planning on watching just the reveal part but ended up watching the entire thing without skipping. It's amazing the kind of casual and fun review you can do when you are "too big to fail" and not afraid of car manufacturers banning you from future reviews. Challenge them and laugh at/with them, all in good spirits. Great content.
I also looked a little disappointed on the new AMG. Looked too much like SLS.
@@purwantiallan5089 the sls was absolutely beautiful
I love how direct & blunt Matt W is esp voicing out what he doesn't like to top management 👏
ps how tall is AMG MAT 😮
Great and honest review! With some ACTUAL questions we, the potential buyers, would ask. Bravo Mat & Matthias 😂💪🥇
the AMT GTR was my dream car and i love that there's a newer version (of sorts)
I'd stand there for hours admiring this beautiful machine!
Yes way better than a Porsche 911
It has fake exhaust pipes and weights almost two tons, where is that better than a 911? The AMG GT should be a sports car and it has an automatic opening trunk lid? All the sensors, motors and things a sports car doesn’t need? I feel like this is more for people who like to seem sporty but in reality it’s more of a limousine in the design of a Coupé.
The guy was really funny and interacted very good with Matt. Hope we see more AMG Presentations soon. Just for the entertainment 😀
As a Porsche fan with four currently including a 992 GTS I'm surprised how much I like this car. Good job Mercedes.
Matheus was quite a sport on this one. Props to him.
Applause for car designer🎉
Matthias is a cool guy. Great car too. Not sure I’d have one over a 911 but can’t wait to see a head-to-head comparo.
Yoh, that badge is actually standard! hahaha this AMG guy is a boss for how he deals with these tough questions from Mat. He took it all well in stride.
3:25 “how can we extract more money from our customers”
Mat you are absolutely mad for asking that question 😂 this is why he’s the best
Just WOW! This is waaay cooler than I expected. I was worried they will ruin it, but no, they delivered. And of course... LONG LIVE THE V8!
I'm really interested in this new AMG. Seems like a solid choice
first saw this car 2 days ago.. and man i swear i love every time i see it revealed in a new video.. Oh how i wish i could afford this beauty.
Matt actually looks lika a 'British Djoković' in this video😂
Good call (of course, Mat is a hobbit sized Joker !)
LMFAO 🤣
@@petermacinnes5313🤣🤣🤣
A unique car with a massive engine and spectacular design. Thanks for this reviewing 💙💙❤❤🏎🏎
That was nice of Mat to interrupt his tennis match to come and review the Mercedes.
I love this redesign. It's not a huge change from before which is great because the original looked amazing in my opinion. The only thing I don't really like is the tail lights being connected in the middle, but most brands are doing this at the minute, so it makes sense for them to do i to fit in.
The redesign looked like Shelby Mustang 1968.
The original is timeless like the 911, so repeating it and modernizing it was a no brainer. I will always love the first gen GT but this new one is great and I think it will grow on me.
@@RandomCommenter-qu2octhe proportions on the new one are off. The hood looks shorter
@@JStryker7 the car is just much wider
@@RandomCommenter-qu2oc yes, that’s a separate issue. They extended the greenhouse on this which means the hood looks shorter.
Very enjoyable! Matthias did a good job despite Mat's best effort to flap him around 😉

@@drivedvisuals aww baby triggered by a flag?
@@c3vzn yeh this should not be about zelensky
@@c3vzn no I’m triggered so see brainwashed people
@@drivedvisuals the only thing worse than starting a political debate here is doing it by sharing an embarassing perspective on things. how about you just enjoy the video?
Very sleek,quite impressed. I’m now having second thoughts on the model Y for next year. I’ll give it a 👍🏾.
That was a hilarious video - makes me love that new GT even more
It's good they didn't mess around with the V8 like they did with the new C63. As an AMG guy I'm happy. Job well done with the design.
I've hard that in facelift model of c63 they will bring back v8 cause of cold reaction of comunity and poor selling
but for me is better to make it hybrid and less cylinder. even though this is a car for the rich, but for me who can also afford it, I think hybrids should be in all supercars, fuel is too expensive now, so it makes me lazy to drive.
at least they make a V6 engine like the AMG one not inline 4, and if possible the engine capacity is 2000cc turbo hybrid.
I'm sure if it's a 2000cc v6 bi turbo hybrid, then the car won't be too heavy but has the performance of a large cc.
Just M with power. Simple ndoda 🫡
@@mufa4567 so I heard as well. Ditching the V8 for a 2l was a disrespectful move to the community.
@@ereinaldy20 I hear you mate. Personally I don't have a problem with hybrid. I do think it belongs in the lower model range like the C200.
I doubt anyone who can afford an amg is worried about fuel consumption. The value proposition for a top range merc is totally different from those at a low to mid range.
A superlative masterpiece.
2:15 looks like he pressed the button on the key in his pocket just to be sure😂 and matt says that it doesn’t work everytime he tries it haha
Dream car right there. Absolutely magnificent piece.
The rear 🤤
Imagine what the gtr or black series can look like 😍
I also had not seen it before and was looking forward to my reaction upon first time seeing it. And yes, coupes look much better than convertibles. I also love it when Matt meets his match when interacting with the brand's personnel - it's always a lovely sparring 😅
Matt, you are not only my favorite car reviewer, you are my number 1 CZcamsr!
This video was hilarious and educational on the same time. Oh man
tbh the manager handled this interview like a champ
I'm just gonna watch carwow now. Mat is bringing up pain points that we all are thinking of and he is calling these companies out.
Yeah! Like non standard parts and fake tail pipes.
Makes other showings of this car feel like paid propaganda
Matt, you really nailed this video mate. Very entertaining to watch. Your interaction with Mattheas is very funny and Mattheas takes your abuse very well 😂
At least the AMG manager knows that you use your stick to check the exhaust outlets! 🤣
This is one of the funniest reviews I've ever watched. Good job Mat, and good job Mercedes rep on selling the car with honesty and humor!
The rear looks really nice
The rear end looks really good! I especially love the taillights, it's like Mercedes took what is good from the EQS taillights and previous gen GT taillights and combined them.
Can we talk about how incredibly beautiful this car is?! This is the best looking AMG I have seen in the last 6/7 years.
I really enjoyed this review, good inforamtions about a car i didnt knew anything about
It's so good to see a new car that actually looks good! Absolutely gorgeous
I love this guy, he’s so honest 😂 ‘obviously optional’ 😂😂
Mercedes product manager is an honest bloke and just laid back given mat calling it out its flaws, i would consider this car over BMW M8
Love how mat pokes a little fun and isn't afraid to nitpick sometimes! Good journalism. Also glad AMG made this thing look good and unique from the SL.
For the last few years the AMG GT 4 door has been my dream obtainable one day car, but i think this just took top spot! Wow!!
I love how Mat just starts grabbing stuff (pulling on the front active aero). You know the AMG guys were nervous...
Good, fun, informative video. Nicely played. 👍
Great interview and organic keep it up refreshing to see 👏🏿👏🏿
Realistic back seat functionality demonstration. Also was hilarious. Still doubt many of the back seats will ever see backsides in them though.
This was just hilarious 😂 what a great review Matt
They knocked it out of the park with the design,
It looks amazing
Looks a gorgeous well designed car, chunky body with big wheel arches, rear is great, and inside, to me a big improvement.
I’m taking the Turbo S any day
W opinion
A based opinion. Porsche is the best.
Turbo S is 250k plus. This is half the price.
@@umarzia1151 bro are you joking haha
The AMG cost over 200k
@@umarzia1151 no it’s not. Turbo S starts at £181,000 the SL63 starts at around £172,000
The GT is destined to be more
Nice review Mat. Mercedes has done some great work on this car
Respect to Mattäus. Nice to see an executive that can take and answer proper questions, not just PR friendly ones
The lift up tailgate is sooo good! Ever since most car makers stopped making cars with it, and I see one without it, it makes me frustrated. Thank you Mercedes AMG.
good looking car, it will age very well
Except the rear
