Mercedes-Benz PU106B Hybrid

Automotive Engines

The Mercedes-Benz PU106B Hybrid was the 2015 specification of the 1.6-litre hybrid turbocharged V6 Formula One power unit built by Mercedes AMG High Performance Powertrains, listed in the family's specification table between the PU106A of 2014 and the PU106C of 2016. It is a 90 degree V6 with a kinetic energy recovery motor (MGU-K) and a heat recovery unit (MGU-H) on the turbocharger, with four valves per cylinder, an 80 millimetre bore and a 53 millimetre stroke. It powered the Mercedes F1 W06 Hybrid, and the same car page lists the Force India VJM08, the Lotus E23 and the Williams FW37 as other cars that ran it. A modified version of this engine was later adapted for the road-going Mercedes-AMG One hypercar. It belongs to the Mercedes V6 hybrid Formula One power unit family.
