Mercedes-AMG GT Track Sport Concept Teased: A New Porsche 911 GT3 RS Rival?

Mercedes-AMG has teased a new AMG GT Track Sport Concept based on the second-gen AMG GT sports car. The teaser image provides some insights into the concept’s design, revealing a car that could be at home both on the track and on the road. The carmaker has also said that the new concept ‘opens another exciting chapter in its performance history’ and that the second-gen AMG GT family is set to expand to include more models.

The AMG GT proportions are unmistakable in the teasers with the low-slung profile and elongated bonnet, though there are some major aerodynamic changes visible. The biggest is the oversized swan neck spoiler over the rear end - likely also featuring active aero - along with other smaller details such as a large front splitter and what looks to be additional ducting and venting up front. All in all, the concept does look quite similar to a GT3-spec race car, though the tyres visible in the images suggest more road-going applications than outright race.

The first-gen AMG GT did receive a number of more performance-focused derivatives from the rather tame GT S to the hotter GT R and, of course, the run-out special - the bonkers AMG GT Black Series.

On the performance front, Mercedes has confirmed that the concept will feature its AMG V8 engine and that the model has been ‘designed for absolute driving dynamics’, and setting new performance and chasing record times. A run at a Nurburgring lap record? Very much possible.

Expect Mercedes to drop more details for the concept in the ensuing weeks, with the car likely to make its public debut in September at the Munich Auto Show 2025. In production guise, the new variant could go up against the Porsche 911 GT3 RS, which is also a track-honed machine but which can be used on public roads.
