Mercedes-Benz Vision One-Eleven Concept showcased in India
Mercedes-Benz has showcased its Vision One-Eleven Concept at the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre in Mumbai. The concept would be in India for a limited time only. It was designed after the Mercedes C111 experimental prototype that was crafted in the 1970s and of which only 15 units were ever made.
The Mercedes C111 was powered by a diesel engine, a Wankel engine and even a V8. On the other hand, the Vision One-Eleven Concept is all-electric which means it uses electric motors. Mercedes is using axial flux motors from YASA which are rated for higher power density when compared to radial motors. Moreover, the electric motors in the concept are also lightweight which helps in improving efficiency. Mercedes claims that the concept is equipped with four individual electric motors that produce a total power output of 1,300 hp.

The Vision One-Eleven looks quite sporty because of its angular low-slung design but an overall smooth side profile. It is finished in an Orange and Black colour theme which makes sure that it demands attention. All the lighting elements on the concept are pixelated, a design that we have also seen on the Ioniq 5. Moreover, if that is not enough, Mercedes-Benz has equipped the Vision One-Eleven with Gullwing doors which the brand also used on 300 SL and SLS AMG. The Vision One-Eleven has a height of just 1,168 mm which means the roof is quite low to the ground.
The interior of the Mercedes Vision One-Eleven distinguishes itself from other concept vehicles. It features low bucket seats, a full-length canopy of glass, and hexagonal side glass. Additionally, the cabin is designed to accommodate augmented reality technology.
