Performance Specifications:
At the heart of the Mercedes-AMG PureSpeed lies a 4.0-litre V8 biturbo engine that delivers extraordinary performance. Generating an impressive 585 PS of maximum power and a robust 800 Nm of maximum torque, this powerhouse propels the vehicle from 0-100 km/h in a mere 3.6 seconds. The car’s remarkable capabilities are further emphasized by its top speed of 315 km/h, positioning it as a true performance marvel that pushes the boundaries of automotive engineering.
Unique Design Features:
The PureSpeed represents an exclusive automotive statement, with production strictly limited to just 250 models. Its most striking characteristic is the radical open design, featuring no roof or windscreen, which creates an unfiltered connection between driver, passenger, and the driving environment. Drawing inspiration from the legendary Mercedes-AMG ONE hypercar, the vehicle incorporates innovative design elements like the HALO safety system, which replaces the conventional A-pillar with a robust protective structure. Complementing this daring design are custom-designed aerodynamic helmets equipped with an intercom system, allowing seamless communication between driver and passenger. The car is finished in an exclusive Silver Arrow mystic silver magno, paying homage to Mercedes-Benz’s rich motorsport heritage.
Advanced Technologies:
Cutting-edge technologies elevate the PureSpeed’s performance capabilities to extraordinary levels. The AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive system ensures optimal traction and stability across diverse driving conditions. Active rear-axle steering enhances the vehicle’s agility and handling, allowing for more precise cornering and improved control. The semi-active AMG ACTIVE RIDE CONTROL suspension provides exceptional road contact and dynamic handling characteristics. An innovative extendible rear spoiler adapts to different driving scenarios, automatically adjusting its position in five different angles to optimize driving stability and aerodynamics. Completing the technological package is a high-performance ceramic composite braking system that delivers exceptional stopping power and precise control.
Interior and Luxury Touches:
The interior of the PureSpeed reflects Mercedes-AMG’s commitment to luxury and sophistication. A two-tone crystal white and black color scheme creates a striking visual environment, while AMG Performance seats featuring unique leather and distinctive stitching offer both exceptional comfort and lateral support. A custom-designed analog clock by IWC Schaffhausen serves as a centerpiece, mounted prominently on the dashboard and featuring a sophisticated floating design. The Burmester High-End 3D Surround Sound System, boasting 15 speakers and 1,170 watts of power, ensures an immersive audio experience. As a final touch of exclusivity, each PureSpeed comes with protective weather and indoor car covers, underscoring the meticulous attention to detail that defines this extraordinary vehicle.
