We all know by now that the Mercedes-AMG ONE is effectively a Formula 1 car for the road, right? Well, guess what… Mat has had a chance to get hands-on with one!
That’s right, he’s flown out to the Nurburgring GP circuit and he’s about to put the AMG ONE through its paces to see just what the hype is all about!
First off, let’s remind you about performance It comes with the same power unit as you’ll find in a 2015 F1 car, a 1.6-litre V6 turbo petrol which is also joined by two electric motors on the front axel! Combined, they deliver 1,063hp and hit 100km/h in just 2.9 seconds. What’s more, it can also hit 200km/h in just 7 seconds!!
However, it’s not all hardcore performance though! Not only can the AMG ONE run on EV power alone for 11 miles, but it also comes with swathes of Alcantara throughout the interior, along with air conditioning and the ‘Hey Mercedes’ voice recognition tech!
The question is, with only 275 cars set to be made, is it really worth the eye-watering £2,000,000 price tag? You’ll need to stick with Mat to see for yourself!

VOTE: Would you have:
AMG One
ASTON Valkyrie
First comment dare u to heart me
@@carwow valk all day fr
Both
This test session seems like, AMG just sent out all the Engineers and test-drivers, and left all the Media people at home...So real and raw...
Best media they could have was doing exactly this!
1.5k likes but 1 reply lol
I guess I’m famous now… But where are the millions of dollars?! I don‘t understand, where I can hand in my expenses now…
i dont get why the check engine light was on
@@goofyspottzzz 1.8k likes and 5 replies lol
I respect that Mercedes let this be aired, honesty is huge. Mad respect Mercedes.
Mercedes is amazing, they pretend to do perfect cars but they accept all criticize and pretend to do it better
That’s advertising
@@conor7154 You good? Lol
I think the problem is with formula 1 engines required to have pre heated oil in them. Maybe it was a fail safe because the oil got too cold and we all know how metal reacts to heat. Maybe they should implement a system if you have too much energy it goes to the oil heaters
Same
I like how raw and genuine this was i hate the fake perfectionism most companies try to put on in media events
Pretty much how their F1 team now is😂
I agree with you guys, I'm totally happy AMG let us see the raw side of preproduction. This is the whole point of getting it out there on the track and just letting it rip, to work all the kinks out so the customer can have an amazing experience with their purchase. No matter if it's a $20,000 car or $2 million.
Amazed at how much trouble Matt caused and how much it didn't get cut out of the video, Nice work to the Germans that kept their cool solving and explaining the problems and congrats on the Great laps Matt
the above reply is a bot
Yep please help reporting them as well
@@AdrickBruno that's right!!!!!!!!
Ya they were super nice I have to say. And he was able to test it a lot. Sometimes it's just a few laps as a driver, a few laps as a passenger. And it's done. Looking at you ASTON Valkyrie AMR Pro tests...
A good thing! They can run their diagnostic programs and maybe iron out the kinks for the future.
Mercedes technician was so serious when you were going on about the AC 😂
What a blast! Great video Matt!
Germans are always serious😂
Just Germans germaning
Scam
Matt cracks a joke and he just nods and carried on explaining the Aircon.
@@Leo23XR 100% he did. Met many Germans exactly like him. I'm sure they just laugh on the inside.
Im 52, always watched F1 for as long as i can remember, always wanted to be a F1 driver but Real life took over and i wasnt lol, now, id love your job.
Matt, you have the best job ever, its great watching you, great watching the cars you drive.....Well done, keep up the good work
-steve
The fact that matt used the word "broken" so many times while the technician kept that smile on his face its simply amazing, too much customer service and calm from him i just loved it... he was so calm @carwow Im glad to hit the like & subscribe botm this time
Loving the engine light being on for the whole ride.
Its a test car man not a finished product
@@phantomboyhalo1112 well my shitbox is the same
engine is probably on it’s last few legs already lol
Yeah they need to be rebuilt regularly.
@@freddiejones4598 if not then the car maybe done.
Mat's enthusiam and excitment throughout this video is infectious, and heightened all the more for the stark contrast to the German technicians. The mere fact they set this event up and have allowed the footage to be aired warts and all, deserves huge respect. Well done Mercedes and thank you Mat for not holding back! Cracking content!
I cant belive how fast that is
Surprised by the check engine light
glad to see I'm not the only one that I saw that
Fr lol. They must of beat it up in the track beforehand in order for it pop up.
😂😂😂
It's a test mule. This thing has probably been abused.
Its a prototype so probably just wrong code
Great video. You have to love Mat's pure joy of driving this car. Also the patience and honesty about what is going on with the engineers.
Marco and the team should be praised for showing the development at stages of work! Genuine and honest, complete opposite to Ferrari’s corporate philosophy. This is why we love cars!
Yep it felt real since lets be honest nothing is perfect especially in high performance vehicles and us enthusiasts have accepted that as part of our hobby/passion
@@conor7154 I'm no engineer but im pretty sure trying to put an f1 engine into a road legal car is an easy feat
@@conor7154 Cause an F1 engine into a damn road car is hard as hell
@khalvintan884 technically, they have the right to do that they've built a fascinating engine why not to use it again
I enjoyed the fact that Matt enjoyed so much. Even I was giggling just seeing him enjoying this beast!! This is content from the heart
❤️ From Bangladesh
Your Sir must have had the time of your life. I watched that and I had almost has much fun watching you break the car! Fantastic car and love Mercedes for allowing you free hand in editing and narrating this.
So jealous that he gets to drive these cars for a living but I really like how matt makes everything fun for everyone keep them coming
Shmee also was lucky to get behind the wheel on same event probably..
he he curious if Chris Harris will post a clip with him testing this beast..
you know if he crashes he dies so it's not that fun really
@@PLK123 people driving normal cars crash n die everyday bruh, this is fun n safe
Yeah, thanks Matt
He deserves it tho. Hes entertaining and educative ? Is that a word lol.
Every once in a while, Matt comes out with the most insane review or test out of nowhere and I love it
out of all the reviews/test drives I've seen so far about this car yours is the best.
in all my years of watching motoring journalism, this is the best reaction to any car within the last 5 years
I love the fact that AMG let you drive it already, despite not being completely perfect. I know this in Germany can have serious consequences for the people involved, but it's a petrol head project with people with love for this cars. Maybe it should not be to perfect, or at least, not in this fase. The fact that they wanted to share it with you in this stage is awesome. When they get fired they can always do an application at Ferrari or another Italian brand ;-)
What an amazing project and car by the way. Just simply crazy and beautiful! Thank you so much Mercedes for just accepting this project and let your most genius and most petrol head people handle it.
This was the best video I have ever seen on this channel and one of the best car videos ever on RUclips. Mat was hilarious, Mercedes was super cool about all of this being aired and wasnt hiding anything, all around massive respect for Mat, the team of Carwow and Mercedes. That car is epic.
love how mat is soo hell bend on setting the right temperature in the cabin out of all the extraordinary things going on around him
This is some crazy tech coming to the road. It's great to have a roaring monster like this at a time when things are going quiet.
Cool to see real life problem on developing a car. And particularly when adapting racing component to a '' road '' car. Thanks to Mercedes team to discuss and explain issues when recording. Technical transparency is a great thing! Big respect to that!
Can totally see why they had so many problems getting it to work and you could argue it still doesnt fully work. And now think about how reliable F1 cars have become, what an archivement
The fact that even this car is breaking down on their press day shows how difficult this car was to make for them and why it took so long.
It has an f1 engine for gods sake
its pre production cars
or alternatively it shows that they couldn't make the car not break down
A normal production mclaren and Ferrari breaks down any day of the week
5 years isn't long
This video is amazing. Thank you Carwow, Mercedes, Mat Watson!
Mercedes really is the Best or Nothing! I’m extremely excited and proud to be an AMG owner!
That AMG1 just looks so bad ass when it goes into race mode.
Beautiful car minus the rims, but I really want to drive one of these!!!
Like defcon 3 mode type of vibe
@ALICE💚 ith enth myr
Mercedes was actually pretty cool, I LOVED IT ! I liked the unedited experience, I expected some 5 min long, minimum driving video, because they woouldnt allow it, but I have been proven wrong! Well done Mercedes...great job Matt :D !
This was incredible. No media people in sight! So refreshing!! Nice one Matt
Great video, honestly great time with it on track..
One of your best ever videos matt. So obvious how much you enjoy your "job". You so honestly express how much genuine fun you're having. Im so envious!
They've clearly got a few things to fix still but it's still mighty impressive to see an F1 engine on the road. Hats off to Mercedes
This is a test car and they are testing stuff on it. That's why it has some problems. Customer cars will not have these problems.
👌👍
@@yournewproblem9390 In theory yes. As Mercedes press the limits of the car, something will always come up . When driving by the owners, can you imagine the maintenance 🙄 What about the drivers learning curve . Matt stop saying preproduction. The car is a race car . Things well come up with this production race car. Matt thanks for giving the novice driver something to dream about .
@@daimonmarioperez9501 Are you taking the piss? This isn't the type of car you'd use as a daily so why are you treating it like he's just test drove a Golf GTI and recommended it for new drivers?
"Can you imagne the maintenance" As if someone who is able to afford this car wouldn't be able to ensure it was maintenanced properly, it's not a shitbox owned by a 17 year old that's just passed their test. Drivers learning curve? You understand that when this goes into production these aren't going to be used for trips to the shops etc, correct? Chances are most of them are going to sit unused in billionaires' garages anyway. It's a production car with an F1 engine and it would be treated as such.
@@mcshartypants Did you hear Matt say, this is a race car you could drive everyday. I doubt it ... Or you just ignored that part. Oh, the maintenance part is a joke man lighten up ! Just like Matt not knowing how to turn the air-condition. Some owners will drive these cars. Some owners 👀 will be seen with their cars. That's what rich people do 🤫🤫🤫🤫
Interesting concept, obviously with some bugs (imagine being on full send and the engine cuts out) - would like to see a comparison with other supercars (hypercars?) in the same price range. Great raw and honest video cut - respect. Looks like you had a lot of fun... and lucky you, Bernd is a legend, you should have included a bit of his driver history.... thanks for sharing!
1.6 litr, v6 turbo, 1063 hp, 0-100 2.9 seconds 😮💣💥
But Mat! Should we avoid it, should we consider it, should we shortlist it, or should we go right ahead and buy it?
Buy it 😂🥰
lol 😆 🤣 That was hilarious
Just go right ahead and buy it 😛
@@carwow and bring it for long time service right after that:)
There are over a hundred other cars I'd consider before this.
F1 inspired car that heavy and 4wd... not sure what demographic thats targetting, it just doesn't make much sense.
Just goes to show how respected Mat is as a motoring journalist.
I was thinking that too. I think THEY really like him. Well Done Matt..........P
Or just how they recognise the reach of the carwow channel?
No. They actually think he is a douchebag
Great review!
Lol does anyone notice that the check engine light is on? Such a great review though! Makes me proud to own an AMG :) No fluff, no generic motivational music, just a raw experience and AMG really is after perfection here.
Huge respect for them not editing and removing the faults happened and it is indeed a production proto.
What a great ethics they have 👏🏼
Considering this car has been properly abused probably well before Matt ever hopped in it is a real testament to the confidence Mercedes has in this motor. Throwing codes and all, it's still holding up pretty damn well!
Looks amazing,great to see the pre production car and see how things work or in this case don’t work all the time,to own one of them cars with a f1 engine wow defo one of ur better vids mat thank you 😎👌👍
13:49 Sounds like an alien spaceship turning on... 🤩
9:15 matt: "normaly you cant shut a woman up but she was silence when i was driving"
the other man: think for second and say "yeah"
As you all know, several AMG One videos dropped yesterday. BUT none of them were as entertaining as Matt's! This video was amazing! Matt's hilarious 😂. Keep up the good work Matt!
9:10 German living up to his seriousness lol
Absolutely love this video, probably the best I've watched from carwow 🔥🔥🔥🙌🙌
Definitely One of the most interesting videos Matt has posted. Very good footage of the interaction and the reactions of the driver and the team. Real life car testing, respect. It is really different seeing what kind of problems car manufacturers go through.
Mat, this is probably one of the best videos you've done so far! Thank you for sharing your experience!
Wicked I really enjoyed the video.
I want one.
Thank you
I have watched this video more than 5 times already...this AMG One is a beast
That was just brilliant.😎
It is safe to say , Matt is currently, by far the best TV Car presenter in world, period.
What about the top gear trio?
@@GalacticTommy Good old trio, used to be, well still are, when they appear together once a year or in there individual shows, but Matt have just a little something more now. Three amigos are just a little played out with there yearly Grand Tours, just a little.😉
@@GalacticTommy keyword : currently
I still prefer Chris Harris. Matts great tho!
Jason Cammisa?
9:10 “Normally you can’t shut the woman up” 🤣🤣🤣
If i ever had doubts (i don't) this video represent why you ar my favourite car channel!
This is the best video of amg one ever. And it's all because of the carwow team. Simply amazing and energetic. Matt is the best car reviewer. What a great video.
AMG ONE never gonna disappoint.
Mat!! Thrashing the development (pre production) car pushing it to the limits, discover faults then report and discuss with the engineers, engineers then perform input modifications accordingly makes you automatically a development driver for the Project One. It's a fact!! There you go
With corresponding pay...
@@andrewdrednaught He has to wake up from the shock first and then comment on the allegations
He's so far off of pushing that car to the limit that your comment made me LOL! He's just a street driver with a RUclips following....nothing more.
@@andrewdrednaught about how many? $300000?
@@thepixelated yep. I bet he is.
Good video & car thanks mercedes for letting us see the car & it's performance great video
20:46 Mat caused an engine light 🎶
I rather enjoyed watching Matt's interaction with Mercedes engineers. Good on Mercedes for allowing Matt to film and post all of there real world moments where things don't always go smoothly. Much more entertaining for the audience imo.
11:47 what is the turtle icon 😂
Such a machine!! Beautiful!! Love mercedes!!
Great stuff Mercedes, I am glad someone went and did such a thing.
The quality of the content in this video is unparalleled. That music at 21:32 made me cry from laughter.
If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You most look outward if you wanna be successful in life.
Sure! Is a better way to counter this foreseen inflation, because all this wars everywhere are politics.
Living in one's "comfort zone" is a contributing cause to the plight of young people.
Fear is a total failure when you give up Ambitiousness; and Success is a game of dice, you throw your $coin while your investment decides your goal.
@@samiraabubakar2963 they said when you invest little money you earn big,
Can't even imagine how it is possible
5:02 Protect this man at all cost 💙
Wow just wow.. i watched it without getting bored at all.
One of the most hilarious and entertaining car reviews I've watched in a long time! I was laughing out loud at minute 15:17 Matt! Why you gotta do Bernd like that haha!
Bernd!!!!! Not Burnd. British people just can t pronounce german words
@@elias.wfm01 😂😂
I love how it’s “not the quickest” when in full EV mode at the end, yet it’s still over 300 hp. Just by comparison to the over 1000 he was just using, it felt slow.
well yeah it's 2 cars in one
one's basically a hybrid toyota corolla 300 hp
and the other is a 2 seater race car
I really do think that 2.3 mil cost of the car about 750k of that is the MGU-H because i’ve heard it’s very expensive which is why they’re trying to phase it out of Formula 1 for the series to be cheaper...
Intresting video, like well deserved. That Check engine light though :D
Bravo to Mercedes to have this raw video aired, I work for a car company and this would never happen, just respect to mat and again bravo Mercedes!
Patience level of that guy :♾️
Imagine giving a multi million dollar car to a responsible but a naughty driver and still maintaining that patience and being humble all the time RESPECT 🗿
Guy revved the shit out it
gets the opportunity to race a multi million dollar racecar around a track while making money, yet complains for 5 minutes to the engineer about being warm
Even in a £2million Merc you get the engine management light on too! ;) Well done Matt, lovely car and some great fun had with good laps
Awesome video and thanks to Matt for bringing this to us and to Mercedes for being so real but there was something ironic. Every time when a lap was about to be completed, there was this big banner "BMW M Power" 😁. Free advertising for their biggest rival!
The fact that Matthew looks absolutely phenomenal in AMG racing suit. Man you look like a professional race driver.
Why do you call him Matthew?
@@HaloofBlood1 yeah weird right cuz he is named jane
@@HaloofBlood1 maybe since Matt is short for Matthew like Samuel is to Sam, he thought to address it like that. Probably the commenter grew in a country with a different culture & could need a friendly teaching ;-;
@@berkaybilgin6084 is this guy his father or what. Matt never introduced himself as Matthew Watson from carwow afaik
A bit gay
The channel and Matt have grown exponentially !! And every bit is deserving
Haha. I remember the days where we watched vw gti's vs Ford st's. Didn't ever think this would happen
@@wesleygreen537 maybe January 2023.
Mat.
next season quarter mile on SpaceX rocket
It’s actually been very linear. I’m not sure you know what an exponential is
That’s funny having such an expensive and unique car and too have ON the engine management light. Another funny part on this video are the lovely BMW M power banners 🤣🤣
I really enjoyed the video 🤣🤣
The fact that this was posted shows how chill and confident Mercedes is about this car, they know that these problems aren't going to happen on production cars.
There's no way or words to express how much I love Matt, the way he makes the reviews it's amazing plus the funiest thing ever, I've been watching the video and laughing out loud like every 2 minutes! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❤
This is the most amazing video on carwow ever! I mean look at Matt, he looks like a little kid with new toy. Mad respect to AMG and Mercedes who built this monster and allowed all the "malfunctions" in the video!
Thanks Matt, you're a hugely entertaining bloke and your enthusiasm is infectious. You should buy me a pint sometime and sell me a Giulia GTAm........... The complexity of these cars is almost frightening in its intensity. The days of never having to read the owners' manual are definitely long gone!
People like truth , I always will love Mercedes and Matt was enjoying the track means they aced it 😊
See these are the real videos people want to see. Keep content like this coming mate. You show your really personality which clearly people like to see.
13:44 It gives you the F1 experience of no power
01:29
I thought for once that mercedes would not have check engine on.
that is one bad ass car. Nice Job
There's so much to comment on this video 🤣🤣🤣, 15:34 Mat: "confession time", official starts to speak German and the look on Matt's face lol
I'm grinning from ear to ear. Good job Matt, great video. Thank you Mercedes Benz👍
mercedes amg mate. benz for luxury car
@@imranaidil1818 Thank you for correcting me👍
You had so much fun. I agree it was a blast to drive one. Cheers
Cracking review again Matt, your content is always on point. How you managed to get an actual review on the car (comfort, infotainment, daily-ability) in a car like that when most would be focusing on how it is on track is brilliant. Guess the McLaren Solus is next right? 😜
For people saying this didn't meet expectations and many cars are out there giving performance, lets not forget this has got a Formula 1 engine from the most successful constructor. That engine and the experience it would give would alone give a better experience than other cars. The complexity of this project and the technicalities.... gotta appreciate this marvel!
Yes indeed. This is only Test Car.
You nailed it 👏👌🙌👍💯😎 MERCEDES - AMG 💛
I so respect the issues and seeing they didn’t get cut. Sometimes these manufactures like to hide any issues with the illusion their perfect. I much prefer seeing the real world.
Have to absolutely give credit to Mercedes for building the AMG One, well done to all involved! 😎👏
Pity it has already been surpassed by other manufacturers and looks awful.
It's a real engineering feat to have put an F1 engine in a road car and have it work without needing a crew of engineers to keep it on life support.
@@markgilbertson1564 looks good to me
@@DjDolHaus86 but it *didnt* work.
Carwow ahead of Top Gear!?
This is the most justified £2 Million price tag for a car.
Can you imagine if this was built at the time LaFerrari, P1, and 918 were made??? That would be beyond the holy trinity….
That check engine light... Matt, have you broken the car?!
They even put it into turtle mode later on since bernd is getting old...
@@ritschieee it went in to limp mode
this is Mercedes standart equipment
@@vovazver lmfao, I had all these issues in the new CLA as well😭
@@vovazver I haven't owned a mercedes since C32 AMG. Are they really unreliable now? I thought the check engine light was VAG thing.
All you need to know about this car is that literally everyone involved with the engine hated working on it, since taming that 2015 engine was an absolute pain in the ass.
The CEO of Mercedes Benz even said it was a mistake and he was nuts agreeing on that.
And it would have been way easier to build a complete new engine.
Only production engine with pneumatic valves
