Undoubtedly one of the most talked about new cars of this year is the 2027 Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe, the first dedicated AMG EV. Upon its extravagant reveal in Los Angeles the new GT drummed up lots of chatter due to its divisive styling and advanced powertrain with an AMGFORCE S+ mode that turns on V8 noises and shifts. I've been eagerly awaiting getting behind the wheel, and last week I was in Spain to do just that. I got to drive the second-generation Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe on track at Ascari and on the incredible roads between there and Málaga, and while I can't tell you what I think of it yet, I want to know all of your questions.

What do you want to know about the electric AMG GT? Are you curious about styling details and interior features, or do you want to learn more about its fancy axial-flux motors and new battery tech? I'm sure you have a lot of questions about those AMGFORCE noises, too. Head down into the comments below and I'll do my best to answer them, either in the replies for un-embargoed things, or in a few days when you're able to read my full review.

There's lots to talk about

As a refresher, the new GT 4-Door Coupe is the first model to ride on Mercedes' AMG.EA platform, the second model being the recently revealed GT SUV. In GT55 form its tri-motor powertrain has a peak output of 805 horsepower and 1,372 pound-feet of torque, enough to send it from 0 to 60 mph in 2.4 seconds, while the GT63 ups that to 1,153 hp and 1,475 lb-ft, bringing the 0-60 time down to two seconds flat. (There will also be a dual-motor GT53, but I didn't get to drive it.) Both models can charge at 600 kW, which Mercedes demonstrated for us, able to charge the 106-kWh battery pack from 10% to 80% in 11 minutes.

Other standout features include an Active Ride Control suspension, optional aerodynamics like an underbody "venturi flow" and an extending diffuser, and Race Engineer dials that let you adjust throttle responsiveness, handling agility and traction, in case you want to get really sideways. Oh yeah, and it'll have an EPA range that gets close to 400 miles, maybe even exceeding that figure.

So, what do you want to know about the 2027 Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe? Surely you all will have very normal, calm opinions about it.
