Mercedes-AMG One Service And Replace Part Costs Revealed

Everyone knows that hypercars are expensive. For example, the Bugatti Tourbillon and Ferrari F80 each start at around $4 million before options, and the Aston Martin Valkyrie is $3.5 million. At about $2.9 million, the Mercedes-AMG One is practically a bargain.

After paying six figures for the privilege to own one of these fantastic machines, the buyers then have to keep the vehicle on the road. If something breaks, it can be costly to fix the problem. This video explains the absurd parts costs for an AMG One.

Service Costs Can Include Replacing The Engine

Gercollector is a YouTuber with a secret identity who allegedly owns an impressive collection of supercars. The AMG One is among the vehicles in his garage, and he has the 2024 service bill for it.

This AMG One received its first annual service in 2024. The work included replacing nearly all the fluids, including little things such as the front-axle gear oil, and doing a complete inspection. According to the bill, this required 80 work-hours, resulting in $32,000 (29,600 euros) in labor costs alone. Factoring in the various components took the bill to over $43,000.

There’s an extremely expensive service that AMG One owners need to keep in mind, though. The car requires a new engine at 31,069 miles (50,000 kilometers), and it costs an eye-watering $865,000 (800,000 euros) to do this job.

The massive price is because the model uses what’s essentially a Formula One engine in road tune. However, Gercollector notes that most people rarely drive their hypercars, and some vehicles may never reach such high mileage.

$23,000 To Replace A Wheel

Gercollector also has the replacement part price list for the AMG One in case any owners break a piece of their car. Repairing damage to this hypercar is very expensive, even if there’s harm to relatively small components.

As part of the motorsport package, the AMG One receives magnesium wheels instead of the standard aluminum units. Make sure not to damage one, though, because each wheel is about $23,000 (21,300 euros). The aluminum versions are still pricey at $9,850 (9,100 euros) per corner.

The AMG One has a complex front fascia with a variety of carbon-fiber components for directing air to the right portions of the vehicle. Be careful about hitting anything with the nose, though. Replacing just these components sets an owner back $52,000 (48,000 euros). Damage to the hood would add another $40,000 (37,000 euros) in parts to the repair costs. At the other end of the car, a replacement rear diffuser would be $57,000 (53,000 euros).

The AMG-One’s Specs

The latest Mercedes hypercar aims to be as close to a road-legal F1 car as the company can make. The table below shows the specs that make it so special.

TopSpeed’s Take

The Mercedes-AMG One and the other current slate of hypercars offer fantastic levels of performance. However, it’s worth balancing these vehicles’ fantastic abilities with the cost of keeping them going. Not only is the purchase price for them unattainably high for most people, the service prices are also absurdly expensive.
