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. It was a dream cultivated over the years to create racing engines. Over time, this eventually led to the birth of the Mercedes-Benz AMG® performance division. So as you look through our lineup, you can rest assured that any model with the AMG® title makes for thrilling performance, bold design, and advanced technology for an exceptional driving experience.
