Formula 1 powertrain in a road car — 1.6-litre turbo V6 hybrid producing 1,063 PS, capped at 275 units.
Revealed as the AMG Project ONE in 2017 and entering customer deliveries in 2022, the AMG ONE uses an evolved version of the 1.6-litre turbo V6 hybrid powertrain developed for the Mercedes-AMG F1 W08 Formula 1 car, paired with four electric motors (one MGU-K, one MGU-H, two front-axle e-motors). Combined system output is 1,063 PS, with the V6 revving to 11,000 rpm. Production was capped at 275 units, with deliveries running through 2024.
The car is the most literal application of Formula 1 powertrain technology in a road-legal production car, and ownership demands strict adherence to AMG's dedicated service programme.
Direct F1-derived powertrain in a road car — defines an entire era of factory-effort hypercars.

Start with identity, paperwork and originality. For the Mercedes-Benz AMG ONE, the strongest cars have continuous ownership history, matching numbers where applicable, original books and tools, factory build documentation and evidence of work by manufacturer-approved specialists. Original colour and specification, low mileage and complete delivery / AMG service file.
F1-derived V6 hybrid powertrain with short, AMG-only service intervals; the engine is rebuild-limited. A proper pre-purchase inspection includes cold-start behaviour, ECU diagnostics and fault-code history (where applicable), leak-down or compression testing, underbody photography, suspension and chassis inspection, brake condition and a long enough road test to expose heat-related faults. Deferred maintenance on a car of this class is almost always more expensive than buying a better-sorted example.
Use a paint-depth gauge, lift access and a specialist familiar with the model's factory panel gaps and finish standards. Collector value is dramatically affected by structural repairs, refinished panels, poor paintwork and missing factory trim or option content. Documented cosmetic refresh is acceptable; concealed accident or fire damage must be priced severely.
Configuration, delivery file, allocation pedigree and continuous AMG dedicated service. Specification, colour, options and limited-build variants move values significantly. Buy the best-documented example in the most desirable specification you can justify, rather than a tired example of a rarer derivative that will need years of corrective work.
Regional ranges authored independently — each reflects its local market, not an FX conversion
Budget annually even if the car is used sparingly. Fluids age, tyres and date-coded rubber components must be replaced regardless of mileage, and stored cars need exercise. A documented maintenance rhythm protects both reliability and resale value.
AMG-only; no realistic independent support. Before purchase, confirm parts availability for model-specific bodywork, electronics, gearbox and engine components. A discounted car waiting on unobtainable parts or a factory service slot is rarely a saving in collector ownership.
Each region quoted in its local currency — independent market readings, not FX conversions
Early secondary trades have softened from launch peaks, in line with the broader modern-hypercar segment. Capped 275-unit production and the F1-derived powertrain are the long-term narrative; AMG service compliance is decisive.

2026 Monaco/Indianapolis batch sourcing: entries dated 2026-04-25 (RM Sotheby's Monaco) and 2026-05-08 through 2026-05-16 (Mecum Indianapolis) were sourced from a compiled results document, cross-referenced against auction-house records, mapped to the correct model/generation, and inserted with prices and lot numbers preserved verbatim. Independently fetch-and-quote verified from those two sales: Ferrari 599 GTO (Mecum Lot S199), Lamborghini Miura SV (Mecum Lot S148), Porsche 959 Komfort (Mecum Lot S133), Singer 911 Reimagined (Mecum Lot F166), Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.5-16 Evolution II (RM Monaco Lot 152), and Acura NSX (Mecum Lot S185). Other 2026 Monaco/Indy entries in this table are not independently fetch-verified.
Direct F1-derived powertrain and capped 275-unit production give a defensible long-term position once short-term softness clears.
