  • The Mercedes-Benz EQ Silver Arrow 01 was the competitor for the maiden season of the Mercedes-Benz EQ Formula E Team in 2019/20 (Season 6) of the FIA Formula E Championship. The Silver Arrow 01 was piloted by Stoffel Vandoorne and Nyck de Vries.

    Unveiled in September 2019, the Mercedes-Benz EQ Silver Arrow 01 featured the distinct metallic silver of all Mercedes-Benz race cars. Prior to the season resuming after the COVID-19 pandemic, Mercedes brought back and updated with a special all-black base livery to join the call for diversity and stand against racism and all forms of discrimination. The drivers also wore black racing overalls. Just like all Formula E race cars, the Silver Arrow 01 features a 56-kWh battery supplied by McLaren Applied Technologies pushed to 250 kw (or 335bhp). The car could accelerate from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in just 2.8 seconds, with a potential top speed of 174 mph (280 km/h).

    The Silver Arrow 01’s competitive race debut came at the Diriyah ePrix double race weekend. The duo started well, Vandoorne qualifying on the front row with De Vries just behind him in third. It was an eventful first race and Vandoorne still held onto a podium step with third whilst De Vries claimed sixth position, marking an impressive first race in the sport for the team. Despite a challenging qualifying for the second race, Vandoorne still managed to convert twelfth into another third position, whilst De Vries was unable to score any points. A strong performance followed in Santiago, Chile, during race two, De Vries leading a 5-6 finish after the duo qualified eighth and ninth. The third and fourth races in Mexico City and Marrakesh were disappointing for the team after the initial performances: neither driver was classified in Mexico, whilst both cars finished outside the top ten in Marrakesh, despite promising qualifying sessions from De Vries in both locations.

    Less than two weeks later, the season was suspended in response to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. The season resumed and concluded in August, with six races in nine days at the Tempelhof Airport Street Circuit in Berlin. The first race saw the team return to form, De Vries leading a 4-6 finish. Vandoorne followed this up with a fifth place in race two, though De Vries had to retire the car after yet another strong qualifying session. Race three saw neither driver score points after Vandoorne suffered a puncture and De Vries was punished after causing a collision. The latter redeemed himself in race four, scoring a fourth position after qualifying fifth. Vandoorne scored two points in the fifth race, coming from eighteenth on the grid to finish ninth. The team’s finest moment of the season, came in the final race: a 1-2 finish on the more technical extended circuit layout. This was a maiden Formula E victory for Vandoorne, after earning pole position, whilst De Vries earned his first Formula E podium after qualifying fourth.

    Vandoorne’s consistency led him to finishing the season ranking second in the Drivers' Championship with 87 points, while Mercedes finished third in the Teams' Championship, an impressive debut in a new kind of motorsport. De Vries finished eleventh with 60 points in total.

    The Mercedes-Benz EQ Silver Arrow 01 is limited to just 50 pieces.

    IMPORTANT NOTE:
    • A PAYMENT AUTHORISATION FOR THE OUTSTANDING AMOUNT OF YOUR PURCHASE WILL BE HELD DURING THE FULL PLAN PERIOD as security. This hold will be charged ONLY in the event a monthly payment is declined (the authorisation hold might appear as "Pending" on your credit card bill).
    • You must maintain a sufficient "Required Available Credit" amount on your credit card for both the full outstanding amount of your purchase and the monthly payment during the full period of the plan.
    • Your credit card issuer may charge you interest on amounts charged to your credit card unless you pay Your credit card balance in full each month.
    • In case we do not manage to reauthorize the remaining amount of the transaction, you will receive a notice email. In that case, you will have to promptly update your credit card details. In case your bank still refuses to reauthorize the outstanding amount, we will have to charge the full outstanding amount of the transaction at once from your credit card.
    Splitit offers you a flexible way of paying for items in instalments, completely interest-free, by reserving the available line of credit on your credit card. Then, each month, according to your payment plan, Splitit collects the instalment amount and reissues the authorisation request for the remaining balance.

    It is important to note that payments are still charged on your existing credit card. Splitit simply provides you the method to do this and information about the instalments. Here is an example of how the service works for a customer buying a £2,000 model in 4 instalments of £500 each:

    Splitit obtains authorisation from the credit card company for the full purchase amount of £2,000. This is not a charge on the card; it is simply reserving £2,000 from the customer’s line of credit.
    - The credit card company then charges the customer £500 for the first payment.
    - During the second month, Splitit requests authorisation for the outstanding purchase amount of £1,500, and charges the customer the second installment of £500.
    - This authorisation and charge process continues until the full £2,000 is collected - in this case, for 4 months.
    No, this is an interest-free payment method with no additional fixed fees, service fees, interest or hidden fees of any kind.
    No, your item will be processed after the first initial instalment and delivered as normal upon passing our Quality Control check at Head Office.
    - You can pay using Splitit with a valid Mastercard or Visa
    Nothing, no credit check is required if you use a Splitit instalment plan and there is no impact on your credit score. All the bank sees is the individual instalment charges each month. If one of your payment authorisations is declined, there is still no affect on your credit rating; it is simply a declined charge. The denial would simply accelerate payment of the remaining balance (unless you provide a different card which was not denied).
    You can pay using Splitit with a Mastercard or Visa. Debit cards, American Express and pre-paid cards are not accepted.
    The instalments appear on your statement as individual charge items with the name of 'Amalgam Collection'. These payments will appear monthly according to your instalment plan, with the same charge amount each time.
