In 2017, the Mercedes-AMG GT S received a minor refresh.
The update brought a more aggressive styling as well as improved technology. A major new component is the AIRPANEL active air management system, comprising louvers in the bottom of the front bumper that can be opened or closed by an electric motor to provide either increased cooling or better aerodynamics. Increased power and active rear-axle steering are also new additions for 2017. More optional features have been introduced too, such as the AMG Interior Night package and the AMG Exterior Carbon Fiber pack.
