Introduction: Mercedes-AMG Mythos PureSpeed: A Revolutionary Speedster
Mercedes-AMG has officially unveiled the Mythos PureSpeed, a stunning two-seater speedster that first turned heads at the Monaco Grand Prix in May. As the first model in an ultra-exclusive lineup, the PureSpeed is designed for true car enthusiasts. With only 250 units set for production worldwide, it’s bound to be a rare collector’s item.
Key Highlights:
- Performance: 585 horsepower and 800 Nm of torque are produced by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine.
- Exclusivity: Just 250 will be produced, making it a coveted collector’s prize.
- Innovative Design: It breaks away from the conventional opposite to many other cars on the road, deploying an F1-style halo structure in place of the usual windshield, enhancing aerodynamics and creating a stunning look.
Exterior Design: Innovation Meets Aerodynamics
With its innovative features, the Mercedes-AMG PureSpeed pushes the limits of form and function, revolutionizing automobile design:

- F1-Inspired Halo Structure: At the most iconic part, the halo of PureSpeed is the technobabble-inspired, and it’s derived from multiple factors, including Formula 1 technology. This ultra high strength steel structure offers not just to replace the conventional A-pillar and windshield, but the aerodynamic quotient of the vehicle is also increased while the safety part is already provided by the very structure which we mean to replace in ATW with the conventional A-pillar and windshield. It also pays tribute to the legendary 300 SLR.

- Aerodynamic Excellence: A unique bonnet and redesigned air intakes on the front end maximize airflow for better performance. A unique diffuser, a redesigned trunk lid, and an active aerodynamic element in the underbody that boosts front-axle downforce for increased stability are all features of the rear design.
- Wheel Design: The PureSpeed has a sleek appearance and less air resistance thanks to its 21-inch forged aluminum wheels covered in carbon fiber. While the open front covers improve airflow and brake cooling, the closed covers on the back wheels maximize aerodynamics.
- Red-to-Grey Livery: Mercedes’ historic triumph at the 1924 Targa Florio is commemorated with a distinctive paint job that fades from red to grey and features the number 10 on the flanks.
Interior: A Blend of Luxury and Performance
Inside, the PureSpeed presents a tasteful blend of state-of-the-art technology and luxury:
- AMG Performance Seats: These chairs, which have multi-contour heating functionality and are upholstered in a unique leather with beautiful stitching, provide exceptional comfort and lateral support.

- Two-Tone Steering Wheel: The vehicle’s elegant interior is complemented by the specially designed steering wheel, which blends black and crystal white components.

- Bespoke IWC Schaffhausen Clock: The dashboard is made more elegant by a custom analog clock that is wrapped in visible carbon fiber.

- Driver-Exclusive Helmets: Mercedes comes with two specially made, aerodynamic helmets that are linked to an intercom system so that the driver and passenger may communicate easily. For music or phone calls, these helmets also connect to the vehicle’s infotainment system.
Powertrain and Performance: Precision at Its Peak
