    1.6L pushing out 1000HP. Sounds like a recipe for reliability issues.

    it's a "V6 turbo hybrid F1 engine." so a third maybe of that HP would be from an electric motor.... notice the EV button or whatever it was at the end in the video... ?

    "The Project One must be among the most challenging car set-up exercises ever undertaken. The turbocharged V6 engine itself has an electric motor built into its turbocharger for eliminating turbo lag, while another 160bhp e-motor works on the crankshaft. Then another two 50,000rpm, 160bhp electric motors independently drive each of the front wheels, allowing torque-vectoring, lightning-quick launches. Those front motors also allow a zero-emission EV mode, during which your £2.5m AMG hypercar becomes front-wheel drive (like the EV mode in a BMW i8)."

    The dealer I bought my car from has one of these on order, with the intention to sell it as soon as he takes delivery.

    Not surprised TBH, reckon they'd have sold out at $5m each.

    Wonder what the boot space is like?
    It needs to take at least 6 Sainsbury's bags.

    That does look rather awesome.

    Pretty amazing when you consider it is primarily powered by a 1.6 v6 engine!! 0-124mph in under 6 seconds...
