This is the Mercedes-Benz Vision One-Eleven concept - a modern interpretation of the experimental C111! The two-seat hypercar features gullwing doors and a race-inspired cockpit ⚡
Meanwhile, wide carbonfibre sills housed within the wheelbase and combined with wind-cheating ‘blade’ elements channel cooling air towards the motors at the rear.The smooth surfacing of the car's body is combined with heavily rounded forms, including heavily swollen wheel arches which house 275/35-profile front and 315/30-profile 22in wheels, and the prominent curved side panels, which are integrated into the lengthy gullwing doors and lift high to provide easy access to the interior.
Mercedes' chief design officer, Gorden Wagener, likened the arched silhouette of the 4600mm-long supercar to the one-bow design of the road-going EQE and EQS electric saloons. Inside, the squabs of the two seats are integrated into the floor. The pedals, leather-bound F1-style steering wheel and seatbacks adjust to allow the driver to strike a suitable driving position not dissimilar to that in the F1-engined Mercedes-AMG One hypercar.
The compact housing of the electric motors at the rear also frees up space in the rear for a sizeable luggage shelf - hinting at the potential duality of future AMG EV flagships.
