In 2017, Mercedes began the story of the Mercedes-AMG One concept at the Frankfurt Motor Show, which was finally presented in June of this year. Now, the hybrid beast with a Formula 1 engine is ready to show its performance on the most famous race track, the Nürburgring Nordschleife.
The Mercedes-AMG One is powered by a 1.6-liter Formula 1 V6 turbo engine with 566 hp (422 kW) at 11,000 rpm. Combined with four electric motors, the One has a total of 1,049 hp (771 kW). That’s enough power for this supercar to reach 62 mph in 2.9 seconds, 124 mph (200 km / h) in less than six seconds with a top speed of 217 mph (350 km / h). The engine is paired with a 7-speed gearbox. And yes, the engine meets Euro 6 standards.
The Nürburgring Nordschleife is a race track where all car manufacturers strive to show the best of their cars. In order to set a new track record, the AMG One will have to be faster than the Porsche 911 GT2 RS MR lap time of 6 minutes and 43 seconds. Surely this will not be a problem for this super powerful car if we take into account the fact that the same distance was covered by the Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series in 6 minutes and 43.616 seconds.
Mercedes-AMG One was produced in 275 copies, and all of them have already been sold out. Each buyer paid $ 2.7 million (€ 2.34 million) for one of the fastest cars on the road.
