Pre-Owned Mercedes-AMG One Comes With Jaw-Dropping $5.45 Million Price Tag

No Bargain Hunters Allowed. I’m Well Aware of My Item’s Worth.

The Mercedes-AMG One is a true automotive marvel, boasting impressive lap times at renowned circuits like the Nürburgring and Monza. And it just so happens that one is up for grabs, with a hefty price tag of $5.45 million.

F1rst Motors, a renowned exotic car dealership situated in Dubai, is currently offering the AMG One for a hefty price of 20 million United Arab Emirates Dirham. Unfortunately, the dealer has not disclosed any information about the car’s history and also asserts that it has never been driven as evidenced by its zero-mile reading on the odometer. However, it is highly unlikely that this car has never been moved even a little, so the exact mileage cannot truly be considered as zero.

As expected from a bona fide superhero, Mercedes has managed to conceal a crucial detail about the AMG One: its initial price. Despite not being disclosed by the company itself, various sources have estimated the cost to be around $2 million to $3 million – approximately half of what this particular dealer is currently demanding.

This listing holds a unique appeal due to the restrictions set by Mercedes for AMG One buyers. According to reports, the company is prohibiting owners from reselling their vehicles. With only a year passed since the first deliveries, this particular model can hardly be considered old. It is possible that Mercedes is not actively enforcing the no-flipping policy, or that the original owner of this car is choosing to disregard it in order to make a quick profit before other owners follow suit.

Regardless, it seems highly improbable that you will have the opportunity to possess the AMG One if you reside in America. This particular vehicle was never made accessible in the United States, further enhancing its aura of being limited to a select few. In fact, Mercedes explicitly informed potential buyers that in order to comply with regulations, they would have had to alter the powertrain, ultimately resulting in a significant decrease in its performance.

In the United States, it is possible for an individual with determination to import an AMG One using the “show or display exemption.” This exemption permits specific unique vehicles to be brought into the country on the condition that they are driven a maximum of 2,500 miles per year. While the procedure involves extensive paperwork, it presents an opportunity for the hypercar to enter the country.

The AMG One showcases a powertrain inspired by Formula One, incorporating a 1.6-liter V6 engine with an electrically boosted turbocharger and four electric motors. This configuration delivers an impressive 1,049 horsepower in total. The car’s 8.4-kilowatt-hour battery prioritizes performance over distance, as the hypercar is capable of traveling only 11.2 miles solely on electric power.

While the electric range of the AMG One is noteworthy, it is not the main focus. Its acceleration capabilities are truly impressive, with the ability to reach 62 miles per hour in just 2.9 seconds and 124 mph in a mere 7.0 seconds. The top speed of this car is equally remarkable, clocking in at 219 mph and placing it on par with renowned supercars such as the Ferrari LaFerrari and McLaren P1, making it one of the fastest cars in the world.

The lucky individual who acquires the AMG One will become a part of the exclusive club of esteemed owners and drivers of the hypercar. This elite group includes 275 individuals, including renowned F1 racers Valtteri Bottas and Nico Rosberg. Additionally, the hypercar was developed with the assistance of Lewis Hamilton.
