HWA Team is the motor racing team of HWA AG, a German company, based in Affalterbach, that also develops and builds vehicles and components for Mercedes-AMG.

HWA is responsible for managing the AMG Mercedes team in the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters (DTM). HWA AG was founded in 1999, and takes its name from Hans-Werner Aufrecht, who established AMG in 1967. Towards the end of 1998 Aufrecht sold a majority interest in AMG to DaimlerChrysler AG. As part of the process, the motor racing department and parts of the customised vehicles construction business were spun off and transferred to HWA AG.

HWA, currently managed by Thomaz Aufrecht, develops and builds the DTM racing cars and engines used by the HWA Team, and customer teams also competing in the DTM, such as Persson Motorsport and Mücke Motorsport. They also develop and build engines for Formula Three racing cars, based on Mercedes-Benz production engines.

It was announced on 9 May 2018 that HWA will join Formula E for the 2018-19 season. Their drivers will be Gary Paffett, their reigning DTM champion and former McLaren Formula One driver Stoffel Vandoorne.

In October 2018, HWA was named as one of ten teams that would make up the grid for the inaugural season of the newly rebranded FIA Formula 3 Championship. In January 2019, the team entered into a partnership with Arden International for the FIA Formula 2 Championship.
