The electric super sedan from Mercedes-AMG has officially been revealed in near-final prototype form, and the first all-electric AMG promises 1,000hp paired with the precision of a true Mercedes high-performance EV.
It marks a significant step in AMG’s journey toward full electrification.
This new flagship will target rivals like the Porsche Taycan Turbo S and Audi RS e-tron GT.
All eyes are now on how this electric super sedan will translate concept styling into real-world performance.

Underneath the sleek bodywork lies AMG’s dedicated EV platform, known as AMG.EA, which has been engineered specifically for high-performance electric models.
The battery is expected to come from Sila Nanotechnologies, while the motors are developed by British firm Yasa.

These suppliers indicate Mercedes-AMG is taking no shortcuts in producing the AMG 1,000hp powertrain.
By combining instant electric torque with proven AMG chassis dynamics, this Mercedes high-performance EV could set a new benchmark.
Design cues taken from the Vision AMG Concept include a low-slung body, star-shaped LED daytime running lights, and wide aero-focused wheels.
The rear features circular taillights and a subtle active wing, further reinforcing its performance intent.

The electric super sedan also drops the traditional grille in favor of lower cooling inlets, giving it a clean, futuristic front end.
Altogether, these features signal that the first all-electric AMG is not only about power but also about aerodynamic efficiency.
Unlike many brands that are phasing out combustion entirely, Mercedes-AMG plans to sell this electric super sedan alongside the gas-powered AMG GT 4-Door.
This approach allows customers to choose between traditional V8 drama and electric thrust.

However, the AMG 1,000hp output and modern architecture may make this Mercedes high-performance EV the more compelling option for tech-focused buyers.
The transition to electric power appears to be less about compromise and more about evolution.
This project is a major milestone for AMG, as the first all-electric AMG needs to live up to decades of performance expectations.
By targeting a four-digit horsepower figure and refining the design based on customer and media feedback, Mercedes-AMG is showing it takes electric performance seriously.

With production expected soon, this electric super sedan is likely to be a halo model for the entire brand.
Its success could define the future trajectory of performance vehicles from Affalterbach.

The electric super sedan is more than just a concept realized; it’s a declaration that Mercedes’ high-performance EV models can match and potentially exceed their combustion-powered counterparts.
If the AMG 1,000hp target is met with the expected refinement and usability, the first all-electric AMG could become a landmark achievement.
