The key differences between the standard SLS AMG and this version are that the GT comes with various performance upgrades. These include a larger intake manifold helping to increase power by 20bhp to 583bhp. This means the 0 to 62mph acceleration time has decreased by 0.1 seconds to 3.7 seconds and Mercedes have reworked the software that controls the seven-speed dual clutch gearbox to help make shifts faster. The suspension has been firmed up by 30 percent at the front and rear, while adaptive dampers have been stiffened up too. Unlike the standard car you can't select a comfort mode for them, with the choices limited to Sport and Sport+. Finally, Mercedes have completed the package with GT badging on the boot lid and darker lenses for the headlights and taillights.
