Kim Java(@ItsKimJava):Is this the right way to keep the AMG's soul alive for ICE fans? Mercedes new AMG GT SUV has 1,169 hp, sub-2.5s 0-60, and 710 kW charging. But they gave it fake V8 engine sounds, simulated gear shifts, fake rev counter and vibrating seat-shakers. I was one of the first in the world to get inside one in Germany last week, curious if this is the approach to win over ICE fans?
