Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT Performance Overview

Produced for 2013 to 2014, the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT compresses its performance story into a short run tracked across 7 verified tests. All recorded examples use AMG’s naturally aspirated M159 V8, with output ranging from 583 to 622 hp and a gasoline-only rear-drive layout. The early benchmark came with the 2013 Coupe, which set the initial pace at 3.7 seconds to 60 mph, while the slowest recorded 2013 Coupe run reached 3.8 seconds. Quarter-mile performance for the range averaged 11.43 seconds at 126.8 mph.

For 2014, the lineup’s peak shifted to the Black Series Coupe, which dropped the model’s best launch to an all-time low of 3.2 seconds to 60 mph and recorded the quickest quarter-mile at 11.1 seconds at 129.8 mph. That places the current and final form of the SLS AMG GT at the top of its own brief production arc, with the Black Series representing the fastest tested configuration and the standard Coupe defining the entry point of the model’s narrow but well-documented performance range.
