Mercedes-AMG has released the first images of its new GT Track Sport ahead of the Porsche 911 GT3 RS rival’s planned unveiling in 2026.
The coupé, initially previewed in July, is based on the second second-generation AMG GT and features extensive modifications.
AMG has confirmed the GT Track Sport will feature a “V8 drivetrain’, “sophisticated aerodynamics” and “intelligent lightweight construction".
While it has been developed as a customer race car, it's expected to provide vital clues to the next GT Black Series – traditionally the most powerful, focused and aggressively styled of AMG's road-going sports cars.
The most powerful variant of the second-generation GT at present is the 603bhp track-focused Pro. It's plausible this new model could push beyond that.
Among the modifications brought to the GT Track Sport are a larger splitter at the base of the front bumper, an altered bonnet with new ducts for extra engine cooling and twin side exhausts within more prominent sill elements.
The changes at the rear are even more extensive, with a new swan-neck rear spoiler offering manual adjustment of the horizontal wing for added downforce, together with an additional lip spoiler within the rear section of the boot lid.
Details of the diffuser have been cleverly hidden, suggesting developments in this area are even more extensive than those brought to the GT Track Series launched in 2022.
