Mercedes-Benz Korea has expanded its sports car LINEup by newly introducing the Mercedes-AMG GT 43. This new model is a performance coupe, characterized by its sophisticated exterior design, agile driving performance based on rear-wheel drive, and comfort for daily use.

The Mercedes-AMG GT 43 is equipped with an inline 4-cylinder 2.0L gasoline turbo engine that delivers a maximum output of 421 horsepower (ps) and a peak torque of 51 kgf.m. The engine features an electronic motor exhaust gas turbocharger utilizing Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 technology, providing rapid responsiveness across all driving ranges. A belt-driven starter generator based on the 48V onboard electrical system supports an additional 10kW of output and is paired with the AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 9-speed transmission.

It accelerates from a standstill to 100 km/h in 4.6 seconds, reaches a top speed of 280 km/h, and achieves a combined fuel economy of 9.3 km/l. Equipped with AMG suspension, the vehicle minimizes body roll during cornering.

The exterior design interprets the traditional proportions of AMG sports cars in a modern way, incorporating a new front bumper, rear apron, front fender trim, circular dual tailpipes, and silver brake calipers. Inside, foldable 2+2 seats and an expandable trunk with up to 675 liters of capacity have been added to enhance practicality.

Standard features include T-map Auto compatible with the third-generation MBUX infotainment system, rear-axle steering, AMG Track Pace, and a Driving Assistance Package. Options favored by domestic consumers, such as multi-contour seats, a panoramic roof, and a 360-degree camera, are all included in the standard specifications.

To commemorate the launch, a limited-run Launch Edition of only 10 units was also unveiled. This model features a Hi-Tech Silver Metallic exterior, Red Pepper and Black Nappa leather interior, AMG Night Package, Manufaktur Black Chrome trim, and AMG Ride Control suspension.

The price of the AMG GT 43 is 149.5 million won, while the Launch Edition is priced at 160.5 million won.
