What is Mercedes-Benz AMG®?

2021 Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe AMG exterior rear view


When you’re looking to reinvigorate your Petaluma drive with a Mercedes-Benz AMG® model, you can expect nothing but a luxurious performance. Boasting racing origins,

the AMG® trim offers everything that Mercedes-Benz is famous for but adds even more power. The AMG® is the epitome of expertly engineered handling, incomparable performance capabilities, and top-tier styling.

What Does “AMG®” Stand for?

The letters A, M, and G are the initials of the engineers who created AMG® 50 years ago: Aufrecht, Melcher, and Großβaspach. What began as a dream to manufacture racing engines for the Mercedes-Benz lineup evolved into the Mercedes-Benz AMG® performance division. Any model with the AMG® title is a fusion of bold design, thrilling performance, and advanced technology for an enhanced driving experience in Windsor.

You can look forward to an exhilarating ride thanks to the advanced performance features of the

AMG® lineup, like:

AMG® Design

The standout design of any Mercedes-Benz AMG® vehicle is a reflection of the powerful under-the-hood components. Command attention on Healdsburg streets with the following:

  • A domed hood that makes room for an internal hood duct, which bolsters engine cooling for greater performance.
  • Oversized vents on the AMG® Front Apron to pull more air to the engine.
  • AMG®-exclusive accent- and feature-filled interior, such as AMG® Silver Chrome trim, motorsports-inspired aluminum shift paddles, and AMG® performance seats with heating and memory functions.
  • A rear diffuser that improves airflow and adds a sportier touch to the exterior.
  • AIRPANEL®, which improves aerodynamics and pulls more air toward the rear diffuser.
  • Staggered-width wheels for improved wheel adhesion and driver control during tight cornering.
