Mercedes-AMG has officially expanded the GT lineup with the debut of the 2019 Mercedes-AMG GT 4-door coupe. As its name suggests, the GT 4-door coupe takes the style and pizzaz from the GT coupe, but adds two more doors to make it a little more versatile.

On the outside, the AMG GT 4-Door is easily recognizable as a member of the GT family with its long hood and Panamericana grille. Frameless side windows preserve the lines of the AMG coupe, while the rear gets slim LED taillamps and a large rear spoiler. You’ll also notice, that just like the Panamera and A7, the GT 4-Door coupe will make it easier to load all your stuff in with its versatile hatchback layout.
