  "account": "In early 2027, Mercedes will launch an electric version of the AMG GT sports car in SUV form. Following the launch of the battery-powered coupe, the Stuttgart manufacturer has announced a new vehicle on the same battery architecture. Comparable to a GLE in size but lower and more sporty, it is expected to be unveiled in October and enter the market in early 2027, according to Test drives with prototypes in Monterey, California. Mercedes has not yet disclosed prices for the competitor to models like the Porsche Cayenne or the Lucid Gravity, but the recently introduced four-door GT provides a rough estimate, starting at around 115,000 euros. The design is new, yet the drive system with the innovative axial-flow engines is expected to resemble the four-door GT, according to industry sources. There are the GT 55 with two motors producing 600 kW/816 PS and the GT 63 with three motors producing 860 kW/1,169 PS. Accelerating up to 200 km/h in 2.1 seconds, the 2.5-tonne coupe can reach up to 300 km/h. The SUV's weight and larger aerodynamic drag are expected to result in slightly lower figures, as will its battery performance. The 800-volt cells of the 106-kWh battery have a new chemistry, are liquid-cooled, and can charge up to 600 kW. A flat GT can cover up to 700 standard kilometers fully charged.",
