Mercedes-AMG ONE breaks its own lap record at Nurburgring
04 Oct 2024|51 views
The Mercedes AMG-ONE, the quickest car on the Nurburgring-Nordschleife since October 2022, has broken its own record. Mercedes-AMG brand ambassador and Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters (DTM) driver Maro Engel, who set the previous record time, surpassed it with a time of 6:29:090 minutes.
This makes the Mercedes-AMG ONE the first road car to beat the mark of 6:30 minutes. It is also the only series hybrid hypercar to date to have taken on the world's most demanding racetrack, making it the unparalleled leader in the super-sports-car class.
In order to attain the high standards Mercedes set for itself, diligent preparation was imperative. In addition, the track conditions had to be perfect. On the evening of 23 September 2024, Engel achieved the new record, helped by a dry track that offered perfect grip.
The Mercedes AMG-ONE, the fastest road-legal racing car, brings Formula One hybrid-drive technology from the racetrack to the road for the first time. With a 1.6-litre V6 turbo engine and four electric motors, it delivers a total of 782kW (1049bhp). The car is able to go from 0 to 200km/h in 7.0 seconds, or 0 to 300km/h in 15.6 seconds, at a top speed of 352km/h.
The two-seater Mercedes-AMG ONE offers even more than a Formula One racing car in some cases, featuring the fully variable AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive with a hybrid-driven rear axle and electrically driven front axle with torque vectoring.
For the record drive, Engel selected the "Race Plus" driving programme, resulting in maximum aerodynamics, tight chassis tuning, vehicle lowering by 37mm at the front axle and 30mm at the rear axle, and full power from all motors.
Mercedes-AMG ONE customers can take advantage of all these variation options which also include the MICHELIN Pilot Sport Cup 2 R MO tyres, specially developed for the car. The standard AMG ceramic high-performance composite braking system ensures the best possible deceleration and stability. The car's high-revving power unit is enhanced by a high-tech turbocharger, alongside its 1.6-litre V6 hybrid petrol engine with electrically assisted single-turbocharging.
