The Mercedes-Benz AMG Vision Gran Turismo is a concept car made by Mercedes-Benz and its Mercedes-AMG division. It began as a sports car created for the video game Gran Turismo 6, the first of the Vision Gran Turismo cars, and was later built as a real car, with its world premiere at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show. The frame is of aluminium tubing and the body of carbon fibre, and it is powered by a twin-turbocharged 5.5 litre M157 AMG V8 of 430 kW. Daimler AG did not announce series production, but the American company J&S Worldwide Holdings announced a small run, and media reports say five cars were made. A racing series version raises output to 441 kW and cuts the weight to 1,300 kg, and many design decisions went into the Mercedes-AMG GT.
