Key Features

The Mercedes-AMG GT R PRO was modified with numerous details to deliver even more racetrack performance. Reviewers note its incredible grip, agility, and confidence-inspiring performance, although its stiff suspension makes it less comfortable on public roads.

Aerodynamics: Features include carbon fiber canards, a new front splitter, a full carbon fiber roof, and a large rear diffuser and wing, all contributing to increased downforce. The aero improvements helped the car achieve a lap time six seconds faster than the standard GT R at the Nürburgring.

Suspension: The PRO uses competition-spec coil-over suspension that is manually adjustable for bump and rebound, allowing for track-specific tuning. It also uses uniball spherical bearings on the rear wishbones for a more direct feel.

Braking and Traction: Carbon ceramic brakes are standard, offering strong, fade-resistant stopping power. The nine-stage AMG Traction Control system allows drivers to tailor the safety net to their skill level.

Interior: The interior features fixed-back carbon fiber bucket seats, a roll cage in matte black, and a fully digital instrument cluster.

Exclusivity: Production of the GT R PRO was a limited run, with around 750 examples made available globally.
