Mercedes S65 AMG Crash in St Petersburg

This is what a Mercedes S65 AMG looks like after a 200km/h accident at an intersection. In the icy conditions, the driver of the S65 lost control of his vehicle. It hit the fence of a Lada dealership in the Russian city of St Petersburg.

CarLifeBlog informs us that the driver was on his way back from a wedding. It’s most likely that the accident was another case of drink driving. Luckily all passengers were able escape the wreckage with only minor injuries.

The Mercedes S65 AMG has a 6.0 liter biturbo V12 engine delivering a maximum power of 612hp and maximum torque of 1,000Nm. It will accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in just 4.4 seconds and has an electronically limited top speed of 250km/h. Hopefully we don’t see anymore in this state.

    God bless he didn’t hit the Lada car, therefore he would be dead for sure…

    In this kind of stuff you understand why an S 65 AMG costs almost 300000 euros….

    If you look again and notice that the structure of the car is intact you’ll understand it a bit easier. My guess is there were multiple collisions, spinning, maybe a roll but not a single hard hit. They didn’t wrote it, but my guess is from the initial collision to the final resting point the car traveled significant distance and lost its energy in many small hits.
