Mercedes-AMG ONE

In everyday driving, Mercedes-AMG says the two front motors can recover up to about 80% of braking energy and return it to the battery.

Mercedes-AMG quotes 0–300 km/h in 15.6 seconds for the ONE and an electronically limited top speed of 352 km/h.

In track modes the driver can activate Race DRS; the system cuts downforce by about 20% by retracting the rear-wing flap and closing aerodynamic louvres.

The AMG ONE combines a carbon monocoque and carbon body with an engine-and-transmission assembly that acts as a stressed structural member.

The AMG ONE hybrid system operates at 800 volts, allowing smaller cable cross-sections and therefore reductions in weight and packaging volume.

Two 120 kW electric motors drive the front wheels independently, enabling active torque distribution between the left and right sides.

Mercedes-AMG quotes total system output for the AMG ONE at 782 kW, or 1,063 PS.

Alongside the V6, the AMG ONE uses four electric machines: one in the turbocharger, one linked to the crankshaft and two driving the front wheels.

The AMG ONE's mid-mounted combustion engine is a 1.6-litre V6 with electrically assisted turbocharging that can rev to 11,000 rpm.

The AMG ONE hybrid system was developed closely with Mercedes-AMG High Performance Powertrains in Brixworth and derived directly from Formula One technology.
