Ahead of the weekend, AMG took to social media to show off a disguised prototype of the upcoming four-door EV, which will make its full debut in June.
The new car is thought to share many styling details with the 2022 Vision AMG concept. Compared to the show car, the upcoming production vehicle is taller, has a less dramatic rear end with conventionally located tail-lights, flatter sides, and less steeply raked front and rear windscreens.

Mercedes-AMG reveals more of its electric sports sedan
That said, it has a sporting silhouette, and the swoopy roof line prioritises looks over interior space, as well as ease of ingress and egress to the rear seat. Although there's a significant rear deck, the new car is a liftback rather than a true sedan.
Both the head- and tail-lights feature LED three-pointed star graphics. A circular blank low in the bumper indicates where the Mercedes-Benz logo and radar sensor will live.
The three-pointed star seems to be housed in a giant bulge that's reminiscent of the grille on the latest CLA, as well as the faux grille on the Vision AMG.

Unlike most AMG models, which are just go-fast variants of regular Mercedes-Benz vehicles, the new EV sedan will have a distinct body. It will even ride on a unique platform, dubbed AMG.EA or AMG Electric Architecture.
While details about the new four-door EV are scant, AMG has revealed the architecture will support high-performance battries, axial flux motors, and output up to 746kW (1000hp).
It's unclear what name the new electric sedan will be given, but some internet reports suggest GT4 EV.

While it might seem the logical successor to today's GT 4-Door Coupe, that car will remain in production alongside the new model for the foreseeable future, giving buyers turbocharged six- and eight-cylinder petrol options.
The GT 4-door Coupe is also available in GT 63 S E-Performance trim with a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 plug-in hybrid drivetrain for those who want the benefits of electrification, but still desire the burble of an eight-pot.
