First official preview of the future electric sports car from Mercedes-AMG. Just a few hours ago the head of the star group announced the development of a specific platform for electric sports cars, and the pertinent preview of a concept has just been announced. Some strokes that show the main lines of a proposal that will be wild. like little.
It seemed that some time was going to pass between Ola Källenius’s statements and the openly made statements about the new specific platform for electric sports cars that the sports division is developinga. And it has practically not given many hours to pass, since the Affalterbach firm has just released the corresponding advances, directly confirming the words of the top boss.
Some strokes that represent a view of the silhouette and that perfectly show the very aerodynamic shapes of this future sports car, which has already been baptized as Mercedes Vision AMG, and referred to as “The desire for luxury performance”. Two qualifiers that reveal a couple of qualities of the future electrical concept that will be unveiled on May 19 at a special event.

Gorden Wagener, the head of the Mercedes designers, has also echoed this announcement on one of his social networks, announcing that it is a “fully electric high-performance show car”, but without revealing absolutely a detail of the mysterious design. Nevertheless, very familiar features are appreciated, first with the AMG ONEbut much closest to those of the VISION EQXXX that the German brand has presented as a technological demonstrator of the electric of the future.
The front is more than short for a real GTwhich is a good proof that this stylistic detail is already unnecessary for an electric model, even for a sports car, although the proportions show a quite beautiful length with a curved roofline that extends to the rear very smoothly. Consequently, a design in which aerodynamics will be a key in the future zero-emission sports car that they prepare for 2025.
What is a mystery today, will be on May 19, at least until the presentation of the production model approaches, is the mechanical section.& Källenius has confirmed that the new AMG platform is a completely new development, starting from scratch and from a clean sheet, so it has nothing to do with the EVA 2.0 architecture of the Mercedes EQ models. A base that will only be used by the sports brand in its future electric cars and that will enjoy high performance. need to know how many electric motors you can have, the capacity of the battery and the performance that it can offer.
