AMG Power: Which Model Is King of the Road?

What is the most powerful AMG model ever made?

We love Mercedes-Benz vehicles here at Mercedes-Benz of Scottsdale, AZ. They’re high-quality luxury vehicles that are synonymous with sophistication and status. But under that well-deserved reputation for lavishness, there’s a performance car waiting to let loose. This is even truer for the Mercedes-AMG line. AMG models are notable for being some of the highest-performing vehicles on the market. But which one is the best? Read more for an answer to, “What is the most powerful AMG model ever made?”



Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series

The 2021 Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series has a flat-crank, biturbo 4.0L V8 that produces a mind-boggling 720 horsepower and 590 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a staggering 882 lbs of downforce, that engine can put all its power to the pavement. The 2021 Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series does 0-62 mph in just 3.2 seconds and has a top speed of 202 mph.

Master Mode Rear Wing

The 2021 Merecedes-AMG GT Black Series employs a dual rear wing to help create that ridiculous 882 lbs of downforce. The center section of the wing can be electronically controlled to change its angle, up to 20 degrees. When Master Mode is turned on, the center section of the wing locks at the 20-degree angle until 155 mph, when it lies flat to reduce drag. The 2021 GT Black Series also has underbody fins that channel air to the rear diffuser, which utilizes the venturi effect to help maximize downforce.
