"Mercedes-AMG is on a path of electrification. It offers a wide swathe of plug-in hybrids, the most specialized and track-focused of which are the C63s E Performance and GT63 E Performance, but it's also working on its first fully electric model, the Porsche Taycan-rivaling C590 four-door. The latter won't be its only pure electric offering, though-there's also an equivalent sporty SUV in the pipeline-and they could be joined by an even sportier two-door model."
"has the low-down on the AMG EV coupe, which is under consideration right now, but AMG first needs to establish a business case for such a model before giving it the green light. Mercedes' sporty arm would be very tempted to make something like an electric equivalent for today's AMG GT, but it won't happen if the manufacturer can't justify investing in its development. It first needs to know whether such a car would sell."
Mercedes-AMG is moving toward electrification with many plug-in hybrids and development of its first fully electric C590 four-door. The C590 will compete with the Porsche Taycan and will be joined by a sporty electric SUV, with a two-door coupe under consideration. AMG requires a clear business case and sufficient market demand before approving an EV coupe project. AMG's technology capability is established, and previous projects like the SLS Electric Drive show potential for a high-performance electric coupe. The timing for launch remains undecided while AMG balances electrification plans with continued combustion-powered offerings.
