Let’s be honest, when we see the photos of these cold weather tests, we think that being a test driver at Mercedes-AMG has its perks!
An electric platform like the new AMG.EA architecture must withstand both extreme heat and polar cold. For this challenge, nothing beats the Arctic Circle and its temperatures, which can regularly drop around -25 degrees Celsius.
The high-performance AMG.EA platform (AMG Electric Architecture) is currently undergoing intensive testing in Sweden. Their goal is to evaluate individual components as well as the structure as a whole. AMG.EA is only beginning an demanding and comprehensive testing program, which will cover multiple test tracks, continents, and climatic zones.
The AMG.EA concept is based on axial flux motor technology. The innovative powertrain operates with a new high-voltage battery.
The photos released by Mercedes show the AMG.EA prototype on a frozen lake. The heavily camouflaged car provides few clues about the future design, but one can guess shapes that could belong to either a sedan or a coupe. Plenty of options for study and design teams to enjoy for years to come.
