A Small Start<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The automobile brand AMG was started by two German engineers, Hans Werner Aufrecht and Erhard Melcher, who used to work for Mercedes. After resigning from their positions, they decided to open a company that would design and manufacture race car engines. The brand was started in 1967 from a small garage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another interesting fact about the Mercedes-AMG is its nomenclature. The brand AMG was named after its two owners and its birthplace. The alphabet \u2018A\u2019 and \u2018M\u2019 were taken from the surname of both the owners; whereas the letter \u2018G\u2019 is taken from its birth city Gro\u00dfaspach<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Transform 300 SEL AMG into a Racing Car<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The next get to know Mercedes-AMG fact is the conversion of a luxury sedan into a race car done by the brand. In 1968, Mercedes-Benz rolled off its top-of-the-line full-size luxury sedan 300 SEL 6.3. The 300 features a 6.3-litre V8 engine that can produce a total of 250 Horsepower<\/a> (hp). The 300 sedan can speed up to 220 km\/h, making it one of the fastest of its time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This car not only revolutionised the full-size sedan market but also paved the way for the AMG. AMG took 300 SEL from Mercedes and converted it into a sports car. The additional 195 kg of the car was shaved off, the V8 engine<\/a> displacement was increased from 6.3 to 6.8-litre. Moreover, the engine was altered to produce 428 hp, providing a car with a top speed of 265 km\/h. The car went into many racing events and won the majority of them, marking a distinct position for AMG in the market.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n The next Mercedes-AMG fact is a powerful sound system introduced in S63. The Bang & Olufsen ICE 1200 W sound system was equal to 20 standard home stereo systems. That said, it is one of the largest and most powerful car stereo systems<\/a> ever introduced. <\/p>\n\n\n\n AMG is not only restricted to automobile manufacturing, it has also gained a significant position in boat manufacturing.

The winning team drives a Sauber C9 AMG, making AMG a reputed name in motorsports. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG coupe was introduced in 2010, adding to the sports car lineup of the brand. Amidst other features, the car has gullwing doors, which provide it with a distinct shape. Aside from its unique shape, the doors contain another bizarre feature, explosive.

The powerful engine can speed up a car from 0 to 200 km\/h in just 6 seconds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The first property sports car of the brand is the Hyper One.
