The AMG GT 63 comes at an introductory price of Rs 3 crore (ex-showroom), while the higher spec AMG GT 63 Pro comes at Rs 3.65 crore (ex-showroom).

The brand claims that it can accelerate from 0 to 100 kmph in 3.2 seconds, achieving a top speed of 315 kmph, thus outperforming the previous AMG GT-R, which was the most aggressive road-legal model available in India.

The Pro variant is equipped with additional aerodynamic enhancements for improved cooling and high-speed stability, larger wheels, ceramic composite brakes, and distinctive paint options to set it apart from the standard version.

Additionally, there are exterior modifications aimed at enhancing the car's aerodynamic efficiency, like an active rear wing. It can be upgraded using an aerodynamics package. 

This design is complemented by paint scheme options like Sun Yellow Solid, High Tech Silver, Selenite Grey, Spectral Blue, and Obsidian Black. There are also three Manufaktur options: Patagonia Red Bright, Opalith White Bright, and Alpine Grey Solid.
