This special-edition AMG® GT 63 draws direct influence from the fictional APXGP Formula 1 racing team featured in the upcoming film F1. Mercedes-AMG played a key role in supporting the movie with engineering expertise and high-performance vehicles. That collaboration inspired a road-going coupe that feels lifted straight from the racetrack. Each car receives hand-finished exterior detailing that reflects the spirit of professional motorsport and the visual drama of Formula 1 racing.
Every 2026 Mercedes-AMG GT 63 APXGP Edition features bespoke paintwork applied by hand. Race Gold accents highlight key design elements, including the AMG®-specific grille, rear diffuser blade, and forged cross-spoke wheels. A distinctive checkered flag motif on the front fenders reinforces its motorsport identity. The AMG® Aerodynamics Package and Carbon Fiber Package further enhance the appearance and performance, delivering aggressive styling with functional benefits.
Inside the cabin, the APXGP Edition balances luxury with racing-inspired detail. AMG® Performance seats are wrapped in black Nappa leather and microfiber, accented by Race Gold contrast stitching. The AMG® Performance steering wheel features microfiber trim, gold stitching, and a bold 12 o’clock marker. Illuminated trim elements extend across the doors, dashboard, and center armrest. A “Limited Edition 1 of 52” badge positioned in the center console highlights its rarity, while MANUFAKTUR door sills and custom AMG® floor mats complete the bespoke atmosphere.
At its core, the APXGP Edition delivers authentic AMG® performance. A handcrafted 4.0-liter V8 biturbo engine produces 577 horsepower, sending power through AMG® Performance 4MATIC®+ fully variable all-wheel drive. The AMG® ACTIVE RIDE CONTROL suspension uses active roll stabilization to sharpen handling and improve comfort. Active rear-axle steering enhances agility at lower speeds and stability at higher speeds. AMG® TRACK PACE collects real-time performance data, allowing drivers to analyze laps and refine driving skills on the track.
Despite its performance focus, this AMG® coupe remains practical for daily driving. A 2+2 seating layout provides added flexibility, while usable cargo space supports weekend getaways. A front axle lift system helps navigate steep driveways and speed bumps with ease. These thoughtful features ensure the GT 63 APXGP Edition feels just as confident on city streets as it does on the circuit.
The 2026 Mercedes-AMG GT 63 APXGP Edition stands as a bold expression of performance, exclusivity, and storytelling. From its handcrafted engine to its cinematic design details, this coupe pushes AMG® innovation forward.
