AMG ONE [Official] Mercedes-AMG Project ONE


The Mercedes-AMG One (R50, previously known as Project One) is a limited-production plug-in dual hybrid sports car manufactured by Mercedes-AMG, featuring Formula One-derived technology. Production: August 2022 – 2025 (275 units planned).
This is a collectible car


This hybrid thing is not doing any favor for this hypercars. Too much weight
I can see this car going the 3rd gen Ford GT route. Underwhelming performance, but still super collectible like you mention. Probably will be going always over sticker price.

Not to discredit Merc, AMG and the whole project. I think this is an awesome and interesting idea that hasn't been done in a very long time. So props to them for having balls to do it, despite the many issues and challenges they faced. (Despite the fact that it turned out a tiny little bit like the XJ220. Same I guess applies for the Valkyrie and the upcoming Valhalla. Interestingly only LaFerrari of the holy trinity faced a similar problem when it arrived for testing. Remember that claimed weight figure? Also not to mention that P1 and LaF are still plagued with issues even today.)

I think the Ford GT is a more compelling concept. It's a genuine race car for the road. The AMG is an F1 engine in a road car.

Multimatic engineered the Ford and was supposedly brought in to help with the AMG One. They also did work on the Valkyrie. :ROFLMAO:

I don't think they will. There is a policy of "no flipping" , as for Aston Martin Valkyrie

Do we know for a fact that this car will be underwhelming? The 918 was the most underwhelming of the last hypercar trio *on paper*, but on the average track, it was the winner. The AMG One is certainly a bit 'fat', but let's not discount that high-revving F1 engine. It could go very fast around corners and make up for the so so specs. This is not to mention the gains from the complex aero work. I'm not ready to rule it out yet. After all, if I remember correctly, the F1 went around the Nurburgring much faster than Veyron despite the inferior specs.
 
I guess the car has been written off before it's ever tested or even driven by anyone outside of AMG. Anyways, it won't be coming to America either.

Of course , the armchair experts wrote it off when the project started lmao. Sometimes I just hate some ppl.


So many haters on here lol ???
it’s beautiful to see such envy and pure rotten hate hahaha

what have we seen lately 4 big releases ?

1. 7er : it is amaaaazing
2. M4 CSL : worth every penny
3. Amg one : heavy slow pos
4. GLC: ugly , boring .

Hahaha , the motherf#ckin twilight zone
 
I'm not really impressed by the numbers (specially the weight), and I believe Mercedes/AMG suffered a lot to make this car meet all regulations.

However, I respect them for taking this through and producing this car, its niche and on its league of its own. If you want straight line speed just buy a Rimac instead, also I don’t see it in the same league as the Valkyrie since AMG ONE seems to consider some aspects of daily driving.

It looks so cool and has amazing features, it will be an epic collector’s car, sadly I doubt we will be seeing proper tests.

Note: I don’t like the hybrid drive train at all it is too complex with many failure points, but here it resembles the F1 high performance/efficiency ICE.
 
I look forward to being underwhelmed by the sound of it and haranguing people on the stand about lap times!

Somehow, the whole bloody car is leaving me underwhelmed. Who needs it, I ask...

Now-these upcoming AMG.EA production cars...EXCITING !
 
Don't ask me anything about the specs, or how it compares to other supercars/hypercars, what laps times it will do around which circuit, how many teets it will pull etc.

What I do know is that I I think it's BEAUTIFUL! It's a proper looking MERCEDES Supercar in line with their current design idiom. And I thoroughly enjoy this on that basis alone.

And the fact that it's once again proof MB plays on a higher level to Audi and BMW. (Sorry I couldn't help myself).

Indeed, there are isolated design elements that may reflect where M-B will be going with its' production cars in the future. Save some of the aero elements, the AMG Project One features a very clean, cohesive design. It could actually provide the basis for an elegant, .EA-based hypercar.
