The team from Brackley brings world-class development expertise. The AMG team in Affalterbach transfers motorsport performance to the road. The objective is forward-looking technology, ultimate performance, the best laps times. And all of it road legal.” says Dr. Dieter Zetsche, Chairman of the Board of Management of Daimler AG and Head of Mercedes-Benz Cars.

Not only the Hypercar, but also the campaign is a milestone for the future strategic orientation of the brand. The Mercedes-AMG Project ONE demonstrates the innovative power of AMG in the sports car segment. It combines outstanding efficiency and automobile performance at the limit, which is presented in the campaign with the title "The Future of Driving Performance" in a unique and expressive way.
