Mercedes-AMG Drag Race: One Hypercar Vs. GT Black Series

For reference, the AMG One produces a combined total of 1,049 horsepower, but it also weighs a hefty 3,737 pounds. The GT Black Series, on the other hand, is not laden with a complex hybrid system and weighs 3,616 lbs. Admittedly, that’s still a pretty big number, but the 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged flat-plane crank V8 is a heavy hitter, too, delivering 720 hp.

Clearly, the AMG One has a power-to-weight advantage, and its slipperier body surely aids in acceleration too, but what’s marvelous about the above video is the distance by which the futuristic hybrid hypercar beats the relatively antiquated Black Series.
