A super speedy Mercedes-AMG ONE – the closest thing to an F1 car you can drive on the road – is heading for auction.
The 2024 hypercar is one of just 275 ever produced, boasting monstrous speed and power.
It boasts a championship-winning F1-derived 1.6-litre turbocharged V6 engine paired with four electric motors, giving a jaw-dropping 1,063 horsepower.

The motor has a top speed of 218mph and can rocket from 0 to 125mph in just seven seconds.
F1 cars can go about 235mph.
The engine comes straight from the winning W06 racer driven by Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg in 2015, and the AMG ONE also holds the Nürburgring production car lap record at 6 minutes 29 seconds.
At sale, this mint-condition motor has just 61 miles on the clock, as reported by What’s The Jam.
The exterior is finished in black with STAR Motorsport graphics and teal highlights, while the interior features black Alcantara, exposed carbon fibre, bucket seats, and an F1-style multi-function steering wheel.

The sale, hosted by SBX Cars in Dubai, UAE, opens on Tuesday (30 Sept).
A spokesperson for SBX Cars said: “There are motorsports-inspired supercars and then there is the ONE.
“Perhaps the most audacious vehicle to ever depart the Affalterbach workshop, it is a study in superlatives.

“The engine has effectively been transplanted from the W06 racer piloted by Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg to F1 glory in 2015.
“Today’s exquisite example is one of them and is practically brand-new.”
