AFFALTERBACH: The Concept AMG GT Track Sport is a technology platform for the new Mercedes‑AMG GT3 and the future Mercedes‑AMG GT Black Series.
“We are developing the most extreme Black Series ever. At the same time, we want to set the next record-breaker in motorsport with the future GT3. The foundation for this is the Concept AMG GT Track Sport – a technology demonstrator that was more than just a concept from the very start," said Mercedes-AMG chairman Michael Schiebe.
The road-legal variant of the concept car serves as a homologation model for the GT3 successor.
The name “Track Sport” was chosen deliberately – as a bridge between the uncompromising track performance of the Mercedes‑AMG GT3 and the extreme yet road-legal performance that has always characterised the Black Series models.
Since October 2025, the prototype – camouflaged with yellow-green and red accents – has been undergoing extensive dynamic testing on test tracks and racetracks.
In addition to the in-house development track in Immendingen, this has included Bilster Berg, Portimão and Monteblanco.
With the start of the testing phase on the Nürburgring Nordschleife, the next stage of development is now underway.
Also the colours are now clearly defined: red will in future represent the Mercedes‑AMG GT3 as a central element of the Mercedes‑AMG Motorsport colour scheme, whilst yellow-green will represent the GT Black Series.
Mercedes‑AMG GT3
The GT3 marks the logical evolution of Mercedes‑AMG’s successful Customer Racing Programme.
The foundations for the brand’s Customer Racing commitment were laid in 2010.
The first full racing season followed in 2011 with the Mercedes‑Benz SLS AMG GT3.
This success story has been consistently continued with the GT3 from 2016 and the Evo version from 2020.
The decision to develop a successor to the GT3 led to the establishment of Affalterbach Racing GmbH – a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mercedes‑AMG – which, together with Mercedes‑AMG Motorsport, is responsible for the development and construction of the new vehicle.
The new GT3 is currently in an intensive development phase. The aim is to continue the successful Customer Racing legacy whilst setting new standards in performance, safety and competitiveness.
