Both Mercedes-AMG GT to be offered to the Hospital de Loures pediatric surgery service are obviously not the genuine product, but two electric replicas to entertain the little ones.
This is an action by Mercedes-Benz Portugal to support Portuguese hospitals, similar to others that the representative of the star brand in Portugal carried out in 2018 at the São João and Braga Hospitals.
