Formula 1-derived hybrid hypercar to be auctioned with exclusive paint and maintenance that cost more than $44,000
An exclusive example of the Mercedes-AMG One will be auctioned later this month, but what draws the most attention is not just its rarity or vibrant green paint, but because it has accumulated a maintenance bill of € 37,610 (approximately R$240 thousand) after driving only 185 kilometers.
Limited to 275 units, the AMG One was born after years of development to adapt a hybrid set derived from Formula 1 for street use. The result was a 1,049 hp hypercar, capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds and reaching 352 km/h.

Much of the bill came from labor: 80 hours of service were charged at €395 per hour. The parts are also impressive, with an air filter of € 1,872, transmission oil filter of € 2,300 and even a drain plug of € 150.
