Larte Design takes on the controversial new electric AMG GT 4-Door

The new electric Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe pushes up to 1,153 hp, but its styling has split opinion. Larte Design steps in with a custom rework.

The new Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe has become one of the most talked-about debuts in the brand's recent history. The model has gone fully electric, develops up to 1,153 hp and is set to take on the Porsche Taycan, Lucid Air Sapphire and Tesla Model S Plaid. But after the reveal, attention focused on more than just the numbers — the EV's design proved divisive.

Tuning house Larte has already turned its attention to the new AMG GT 4-Door. The reason is clear: an unusual front end, a streamlined body and a more «electric» image that hasn't gone down well with fans of the classic AMG. It has been noted before that the new generation drew plenty of criticism over its looks, even though technically the car is far more radical than its predecessor.

For Larte, it's a logical move. The studio has already worked with the previous Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door and showed carbon body kits for the ICE version. Now the tuners can tap into the demand from buyers who want not only power but also a more aggressive look. The shift becomes especially relevant after AMG's move from V8 engines to electric motors — visual presence matters more than ever.
