Mercedes Sticks Some Yellow Flames on AMG GT Four Door
It’s no secret Mercedes-AMG is working on a dedicated four-door sports car, but now a prototype for the new sedan has been spotted testing wearing some interesting camouflage.
This prototype for the AMG GT four door was spotted undergoing cold weather tests in the Arctic Circle. As you can see, it’s fitted with a yellow flame camouflage wrap that shows off a considerable amount of the purpose-built AMG’s body. It was also joined by two other prototypes that were adorned with a more traditional camouflage wrap.

The second dedicated AMG model will feature the 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 found in a myriad of other AMG models, including the AMG GT. A hybrid version using the V8 and an electric powertrain will arrive eventually as well, which could make up to 805 hp. Non hybrid versions are expected to come standard with rear-wheel drive, but AWD could be offered as an option. The hybrid will likely be AWD only.
We’ll know more about the four-door AMG following its debut in Geneva next month. Stay tuned for more info, and in the meantime, be sure to check out the prototype in the gallery above.
