The future hiperdeportivo of Mercedes-AMG has a name: 'Project One'
During the last Hall of the automobile in Paris the head of Mercedes-AMG, Tobias Moers, announced a future hiperdeportivo from Affalterbach, which now has a name. Known internally as the R50, this beastly project with Formula 1 engine is named Project One, as he has stated the own Moers at the Detroit show. The question now is, for when?
The German company, which at the moment has only shown the silhouette of themodel and the forms of its lagging behind (the header image is the most recent teaser), seeks to present the One Project before end of the year 2017 marks the 50thanniversary of AMG and would be a great way to celebrate it. Thus, it is very likelythat we see at the Frankfurt Motor Show, in September.
As you already unveiled Moers in its day, this hiperdeportivo will include Formula 1technology. Nothing of "inspired by the F1", not. The Project One will equip a system of propulsion hybrid as the of them single-seaters of the team Mercedes-AMG (1.6 liters V6 + electric) and will have traction total thanks to an engine electric that will give life to the axis front when is necessary.
In Affalterbach, they promise a power exceeding the 1,000 HP for this tandem, which by its lines inevitably reminiscent of the Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR. Although stillnot is clear, is expected that the production is limited to between 200 and 300units, and the price of each a could haunt them 2.4 million of euros.
