“The Mercedes-AMG GT2 Edition W16 reaches its peak performance when the Push2Pass function is activated, which is another new feature. When the driver presses the corresponding button on the multifunction steering wheel, the system temporarily increases the boost pressure. This provides an additional 98 hp and 148 lb.-ft. of torque. The maximum torque thus rises to 738 lb.-ft. and the maximum output of 818 hp is achieved. The special edition model boasts an impressive power-to-weight ratio of approximately 3.85 lb./hp. Thanks to its consistent lightweight construction, the GT2 Edition W16 has a weight of just 3153 lbs. The newly designed magnesium wheels, which feature color accents that create a visual link to the Formula 1® car, also contribute to weight optimization,” Mercedes said.
