Mercedes-AMG is gearing up to electrify its lineup with the upcoming release of a dedicated electric vehicle (EV), and recent images of a prototype testing in snowy Sweden offer a tantalizing glimpse of what’s to come.
The EV, set to debut by 2026, promises to deliver a bold design reminiscent of the striking aesthetics showcased in the 2022 Vision AMG concept.
Utilizing the cutting-edge AMG.EA platform, the electric Mercedes-AMG, will harness the power of axial-flux motors paired with a high-voltage battery, promising a potent blend of performance and efficiency.
The recent winter trials in Sweden mark an important milestone in the platform’s development, with temperatures plunging to as low as negative 13 degrees Fahrenheit.
Although obscured by heavy camouflage, the prototype exhibits design cues reminiscent of the Vision AMG concept, featuring a sleek fastback roofline and a striking rear end with distinctive taillights sporting a three-circular element motif.
Drawing inspiration from the EQXX concept, the electric AMG is poised to make a bold statement on the road.
While specific details remain scarce, Mercedes-AMG enthusiasts can anticipate formidable horsepower figures and a driving experience that stays true to the brand’s performance heritage.
Set to debut in 2025, according to earlier announcements, the electric Mercedes-AMG is expected to make its way to the U.S. market by 2026, marking a significant step forward in the evolution of high-performance electric vehicles.
