Mercedes-AMG’s Project One hypercar has a lot of
good things going for it, even though it’s far from being a finished product.
Still, some say that it will be able to set a new
Nurburgring record, thus dethroning the Porsche 956 and its time of 6 minutes
11.1 seconds. As for power, we expect somewhere between 1,000 and 1,100 horses
coming from the F1-derived 1.6-liter turbocharged hybrid powertrain, in turn
working alongside a robotized manual 8-speed transmission.
Of course, that’s just “fancy talk” for now, because
the production version of the car is yet to be built and one can argue that,
given its specs, it should look more aggressive. Now, this C01 Vision render by
Invisive represents a different take on a Mercedes-AMG hypercar, one where a
greater emphasis has been placed on aesthetics.
Based on the rear-end design alone, we’d wager that
such a car would generate enormous amounts of downforce,
possibly more than the 675 kg expected from the Project One.
Visually, though, this render actually reminds us more of the Aston Martin
Valkyrie than the Project One, or at least a sort of mix between the two.
