Recently, Mercedes-AMG and the famous rapper Will.I.Am to create a new art car - AMG "The Flip" was officially released. It is understood that this car is based on the AMG GT four-door coupe, incorporating many personalized fashion elements, and will be exhibited during the F1 Miami Grand Prix held this week.
Although the new car is based on the AMG GT, the alternative front shape is surprising, because this car adopts the front face of the hardcore off-road vehicle Mercedes-Benz G-Class, the low posture with the boxy and tough silhouette is very unique, and the modification of the front surround is also a style that has never been seen before. Another interesting thing is that the Mercedes-Benz LOGO with the bear element in the front of the new car is called "BEAR WITNESS", which is also from the hand of Will.I.Am.
Coming to the side, the new car still retains the classic long-wheeled shape of the GT sports car, but also adds many fresh designs, such as equipped with two rearward opening doors, and also adopts a split glass roof, and the wheel rim style also echoes the big cake shape on the Maybach. The rear is relatively familiar, with a sneaky rear and slender light cluster that is consistent with the regular AMG GT.
The official information on power has not yet been announced, but it is reported that this car may be equipped with a 4.0T V8 hybrid system from the GT 63 SE Performance, with a maximum power of 843 horsepower.
Summary: As a unique art car, of course, we can not use the aesthetics of ordinary cars to look at it, bold creative techniques and the fusion of various design elements to create such a personalized work, it is indeed very visual impact. In addition, this AMG "The Flip" will be included in a documentary called "DRIVE", which will premiere at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival.
