Here's A Fresh Look At The Mercedes-AMG Project One
The full debut of Mercedes-AMG’s crazed Projcet One hypercar is just a few weeks away, but for now, here’s a cheeky teaser image to whet your appetite.
The darkened picture doesn’t give much away, other than the car’s headlights and the rough shape of the front end. It also shows another angle of the car’s centrally-mounted intake, which will feed an F1-derived V6 engine.
It, along with a hybrid system inspired by - you guessed it - F1, will provide “over” 1000bhp, and a top speed “exceeding” 217mph.
All details should be available when Project One says its big hello at the Frankfurt Motorshow, although we do know there’ll be an electric turbocharger, a trio of electric motors, and an 11,000rpm redline for the dinky V6, which also idles at 4000rpm.
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

I can defenitly see where they got their inspiration…

Is that Gran Turismo 6?
I believe thats not how you spell “project” (amazing editing skills) (btw can someone tag matt cause i cant do it on mobile)

McLaren P1 (McLaren squad) (#CTthegame)
it kinda looks like a McLaren f1
I’m getting a C9 vibe from this
Mixture of f1 and clk gtr.
well I’m getting a clk gtr and a c9 vibe but overall it’s a nice car, but the thing I’m concerned about is is this going to be street legal or not
Looks a bit like the mercedes sauber C9 to me
A “fresh look” you cant see anything.. but the out line, lights, badge, and the name.. Stop lying to us!!
Oh cool
The tilt of the Mercedes logo shows how low and angled the front is.
