Mercedes-AMG's first dedicated electric car is nearing completion ahead of its launch next year, with new images of the 1000bhp Porsche Taycan rival giving the best look yet at its sleek, aero-optimised design.
Equipped with innovative drive train technology that is likely to make it the firm's most powerful road car yet, the new super-saloon will in effect be a replacement for the V8engined GT 4-Door Coupé.
Mercedes' performance division previewed the rakish four-seater in 2022 with a radical concept dubbed Vision 2025, which gave clues to how AMG plans to differentiate its own sporting EVs from the mainstream equivalents offered by its parent company.
The concept was clearly more performance-focused than models such as the Mercedes-Benz EQE and EQS saloons, with a much lower and sharper silhouette.
Distinctive styling cues, such as the six circular tail-lights and race-style diffuser, hinted at features that could define AMG's future product portfolio.
