The Mercedes-Benz W17 reaches 60 mph in 2.41 s (100 km/h in 2.50 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 8.83 s, tripping the lights at 181.7 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 1.60 s and the eighth mile in 6.06 s, reaching 100 mph in 4.20 s.
Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
Pick who it runs against, then watch it happen — and change the surface, the weather or the distance and run it again.

The 2026 Mercedes-Benz W17 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated supercar of 772 kg with 1,038 bhp, which works out at 1,344 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 1,344 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 1.60 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 59th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest one per cent of the set, and the quickest of the 1380 Mercedes-Benzs here. Its 181.7 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 8 of 11 published acceleration figures for this car.
