The Car That Started It: hypercar history in under a minute. Full story tonight on the channel.
The Mercedes-AMG One uses a 1.6-litre turbo V6 based on Mercedes’ Formula 1 hybrid power unit, with F1-style MGU-K and MGU-H units plus two front electric motors, for 1,063 PS combined and an 11,000 rpm redline. 275 were built. In September 2024 Maro Engel lapped the Nurburgring Nordschleife in 6:29.090, the AMG One’s own production-car record at the time.
