They will be built as a single unit. 275 units of the Mercedes-AMG ONE hypercar. After a very long testing phase, the German automaker announced that it had begun construction of the first production model. The first models will go into the hands of the lucky ones in the second half of 2022.
Mercedes says the production line for this exclusive supercar includes 16 assembly and test stations. The work is done with absolute precision. Some parts are pre-assembled, tested, and then disassembled for installation inside the vehicle.
For example, an internal combustion engine, 4 electrical units and a battery are pre-tested on special test benches to ensure they work flawlessly before being installed in a car. Generally, more than 50 specialists work on every Mercedes‑AMG ONE. After each station, it is necessary to undergo a thorough quality check. At the end of the build, each individual vehicle is tested on a test bench for a final check.
The Mercedes-AMG ONE hypercar is a truly special vehicle created by using technologies borrowed from Formula 1. It is for this reason that the development was long and difficult. Of note is the powertrain, which is strictly borrowed from single-seat Formula 1 cars. In particular, we have a 1.6-liter V6 internal combustion engine combined with 4 electric units.
Generally available there is 782 kW (1063 hp). The “red zone” starts at 11,000 rpm. Electric units are powered by a battery with a capacity of 8.4 kWh, which allows you to drive only on electricity up to 18.1 km. To ensure maximum performance in terms of energy delivery, even during the most intensive use, the battery has a sophisticated cooling system. The transmission is assigned to a mechanical (sequential) 7-speed gearbox.
The figures are, of course, very high. Top speed reaches 352 km/h, while acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h takes only 2.9 seconds. 200 km/hinstead they reach each other in just 7 seconds.
