2017 AMG Project One

Already many vehicles have been regarded as technically close to Formula 1, this one is perhaps the closest one, quite differently from e.g. the Bugatti Chiron. Nevertheless, it will not differ very much in its sales price, but only with a good half of the number produced. In the movie below, you can follow the similarity to the formula 1 during the animated conversion.

First, however, it is a two-seat show car with wing doors. It has rear-wheel drive by an internal combustion engine, supported each by an electric motor on the crankshaft (120 kW) and turbocharger (90 kW). Two further electric motors with 120 kW each drive the differential-free front axle. With it AMG celebrates its 50th anniversary.

The engine is taken as V6 of the formula 1. Looking at it alone, it can be referred to as a longitudinal center motor. Different from Formula 1 is the additional front-wheel drive. Almost directly taken over the pushrods front and rear, the pedals adjustable instead of the seats.

Of course, a F1 does not need air conditioning or electric windows. Normally we do not give acceleration times, but about 6 seconds from 0 to 200 km/h are absolutely noticeable. This makes it even faster than the Bugatti Chiron (6,5 s). 09/17
