“I'd check the rear sides for that sheeting that is to protect your vehicle. The line of the stuff collects dirt badly. Check massaging seats-Mercedes' needs to check jaguar. And the cup holders are awful. Check that as well”
2022 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
For 2022, the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT lineup narrowed to the six-cylinder GT 43 and GT 53 four-door models, with the previous 63, 63 S, Black Series, C, Coupe, and Roadster entries no longer offered. This was not a redesign.
About the 2022 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT
1st-generation X290 AMG GT 4-Door Coupe, fourth U.S. model year; light equipment update, not a redesign.
Mercedes-AMG presents the AMG GT 4-Door as a performance car built for everyday use: dramatic fastback styling, four-door passenger access, a hatch-style cargo opening, variable AWD, and AMG-tuned engines and handling. Its main appeal is combining sports-car presence and acceleration with genuine rear seating and daily-driving usefulness, placing it between a traditional luxury sedan and a two-seat performance coupe.
The GT 43 serves as the everyday entry point, pairing a 362-hp turbocharged six-cylinder engine with variable AWD, adaptive suspension, and a navigation-equipped touchscreen. The GT 53 keeps the same practical fastback format but steps up to 429 horsepower; both trims have heated front seats, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a surround-view camera.
