The all-conquering AMG One has finished it once more, smashing one more lap document. After being topped the quickest manufacturing automobile on the Nürburgring, Crimson Bull Ring, and Hockenheim final yr, the F1-engined hypercar has added the Monza monitor to its trophy case. Mercedes-AMG manufacturing unit driver Maro René Engel wanted only one minute and 43.902 seconds to finish a lap of the well-known Italian circuit.
AMG says it has improved the earlier document by a whopping 12 seconds, subsequently dethroning the 991.2-generation Porsche 911 GT3 RS and its lap time of 1 minute and 55.30 seconds. The One carried out the lap in road-legal specification, outfitted with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 R MO tires particularly engineered for the electrified beast. Sadly, Mercedes’ efficiency arm has but to launch footage of the record-breaking run.
The Valkyrie is the one automobile we will consider that has an actual shot at dethroning the AMG One however Aston Martin hasn’t tried to set new monitor data. Within the meantime, Mercedes’ flagship efficiency machine reigns supreme, courtesy of its intricate 1.6-liter turbocharged V6 engine and 4 electrical motors producing a mixed 1,048 horsepower.
We’ll remind you the AMG One delivers neck-twisting acceleration by hitting 62 mph (100 km/h) in 2.9 seconds and doing 0 to 124 mph (200 km/h) in 7 seconds, en path to a high velocity of 219 mph (352 km/h). Its six-cylinder engine revs to 11,000 rpm and have to be rebuilt as soon as each 31,000 miles (50,000 kilometers), though we’re pretty sure few will ever be pushed that a lot.
Assembled by hand, the One is capped at simply 275 vehicles and is being put collectively at AMG’s facility in Coventry, UK however the hybrid powertrain comes from the Mercedes‑AMG Excessive Efficiency Powertrains division in Brixworth. A devoted manufacturing facility needed to be created in collaboration with Multimatic, and every automobile goes via no fewer than 16 meeting and testing stations.
