Speculation has been confirmed that there will indeed be a Mercedes-Benz AMG GT Black Series in the offing. As with all Black Series cars, it will be the lightest, have the most downforce, and be the most powerful derivative in the range.
We will be driving the new AMG GT at the Leguna Seca circuit in California next month and will report back on the performance of the car’s 339 kW/600 N.m, twin-turbo 4,0-litre V8, as well as the 375 kW/ 650 N.m S version. You can bet the Black Series will have a little more muscle than that though.
The high-performance version of their new sports car will, among other GT derivatives, include a convertible. “Sooner or later there will be a Black Series version,” confirmed Mercedes-AMG boss Tobias Moers to the EVO website. “There is more to come from the GT first, though – more variants”.
