The torquey engine did present
a fair amount of turbo lag, and in combination with the six - speed automatic's slower decisions, was «clunky» when jumping on and off the throttle.
Instead
of a the
fair amount of bloat the SLS had, AMG are claiming the AMG GT will be much more focused, dynamic and agile, and instead
of a big 6.2 litre naturally aspirated V8 it looks like the AMG GT will be getting the 4.0 litre
Turbo V8 with something north
of 520bhp.
