What Does “AMG®” Stand for?

If you have been considering a Mercedes-Benz AMG® SUV or any Mercedes-Benz AMG® for sale for that matter, you may be wondering what AMG® actually stands for. The letters A, M, and G are the initials of the engineers who developed AMG® 50 years ago: Aufrecht, Melcher, and Großβaspach. From humble beginnings creating racing engines for the Mercedes-Benz lineup to the full Mercedes-Benz AMG® performance division you know today, you know that any model with the AMG® badge is sure to add excitement to your daily drives in Smyrna and look good doing it! 

What Can You Expect from the AMG® Lineup? 

What sets Mercedes-Benz AMG® models apart from their rivals as well as the rest of the Mercedes-Benz lineup? Listed below are just some of the performance features you may find on your next Mercedes-Benz AMG® SUV or sedan:

  • AMG® RIDE CONTROL® Sport Suspension
  • AMG® High-performance Composite Braking System
  • AMG® High-Performance Braking System
  • RACESTART® function

Standout AMG® Design Elements 

Any Mercedes-Benz AMG® for sale at Atlanta Autos is sure to gain more than a few admiring glances on the roads of Marietta. Functional, yet stylish, design elements are another hallmark of the AMG® lineup. 

  • Many AMG® models feature a domed hood. The dome allows for an internal hood duct, which helps the engine cool and boosts performance. 
  • Oversized vents on the AMG® Front Apron help to draw in more air to the engine. 
  • A rear diffuser not only adds a sporty touch to the exterior, it also streamlines airflow.
  • AIRPANEL® enhances aerodynamics by drawing more air toward the rear diffuser. 
  • For better handling during tight turns, AMG® models have staggered-width wheels.
  • Don’t forget about the interior! Expect plenty of AMG®-exclusive accents and features throughout the cabin like AMG® Silver Chrome trim, motorsports-inspired aluminum shift paddles, and AMG® performance seats with heating and memory functions.
