Fastest series production car

Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series is the fastest series production car on the Nürburgring-Nordschleife as Maro Engel drove a notarized record lap in the AMG GT Black Series. How close the new Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series actually is to motorsport has now been impressively demonstrated by GT3 racer Maro Engel on the Nordschleife of the Nürburgring. 

With an officially measured and notarized certified time of 6:43,616 min for the 20.6 kilometer-long track (measured without the straight at track section T13) and 6:48,047 min for the 20.832 kilometer-long total track (measured with the straight at track section T13), the new V8 meteor is placed in the top group of the street-legal “sports cars” category and number one among the fully standard, unmodified models.

Maro Engel made full use of all the possibilities offered by the new Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series as standard: such as the most powerful AMG V8 series engine ever with 537 kW (730 hp), the sophisticated aerodynamics and extensive suspension adjustment options. For example, the front splitter made of visible carbon fiber was extended to the “Race” position, and the lower and upper wing blades of the rear spoiler were each adjusted in the middle position.
