In the spring of 2023, Mercedes-AMG introduced a mild facelift for its four-door coupe GT 4Matic+, the versions powered by the inline-six biturbo powerplant.
The model was launched in 2018 and already refreshed once in 2020. But that didn't stop the German automaker from adding a newer version of it just three years later after that. It didn't go too much with the updates, but still, it considered that some customers would ditch their already "old-looking" 2020 models and replace them with the newer version.
In the 2023 model year, the four-door coupe made by Mercedes-AMG sported a new front fascia with wider side scoops that sported a jet-wing design. In addition, small black winglets channeled more air inside those air intakes to cool the brakes. These flanked the center lower air intake that resembled a wing from an aircraft. For those looking for more aggressive styling, the automaker offered the option for a V8 styling package, which made the inline-six versions of the four-door coupe look like its more powerful brother.
Starting with the 2023 model year, the car offered a standard sliding glass roof and, on the center console, a wireless charger. But what was good in the cabin didn't change. The high-bolstered bucket seats at the front were both comfortable and looked awesome, while the rear bench seat was still profiled for two.
Under the hood, the six-cylinder version of the four-door coupe made by Mercedes-AMG was available in two power versions. The base model was the named GT 43 4Matic+ and offered 367 PS (362 hp), while its more powerful sibling, named GT 53 4Matic+, boasted a total of 435 PS (429 hp). Both versions were helped by a 16 kW (21 PS) integrated starter-generator (ISG).
