About the GT53 4MATIC+ EQ Boost TCT X290

The 2018 Mercedes-AMG GT53 4MATIC+ EQ Boost TCT X290 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged saloon of 1,970 kg with 429 bhp, which works out at 218 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 1.93 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 1,330th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest tenth, and the 49th quickest of the 63 Mercedes-AMGs here. Its 107.0 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 10 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Mercedes-AMG GT53 4MATIC+ EQ Boost TCT X290 0-60 time?
The Mercedes-AMG GT53 4MATIC+ EQ Boost TCT X290 reaches 60 mph in 4.23 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 1,330th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Mercedes-AMG GT53 4MATIC+ EQ Boost TCT X290 quarter mile time?
12.88 s at 107.0 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.24 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.93 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Mercedes-AMG GT53 4MATIC+ EQ Boost TCT X290 have?
429 bhp and 1,970 kg, which is 218 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbocharged, with 7 gears and a quoted top speed of 285 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Mercedes-AMG GT53 4MATIC+ EQ Boost TCT X290?
Closest here on pace: Bentley Continental GT 4.0 V8 500 (4.28 s), Bentley Continental GT 4.0 V8 507 (4.28 s), Maserati Quattroporte VI 3.0 V6 430 (4.27 s). Each one can be raced against the Mercedes-AMG GT53 4MATIC+ EQ Boost TCT X290 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Mercedes-AMG GT53 4MATIC+ EQ Boost TCT X290 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 10 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
