Spy Photos: The New Mercedes-Benz SL

Tweet

Future Mercedes SL was surprised at the tests and now we can admire it sprinkled with a few small "decolletages", which unfortunately does not offer too many informations, but still, it's better than nothing, no?

Externally, the model takes front grille from the SLS AMG. But new German creation shows specific elements from the recently released SLK, such as electrocromatic ceiling, which at the touch of a button becomes transparent or opaque, by the help of the system called Magic Sky Control. Both headlights and front projectors are equipped with a series of LEDs for daytime running, but they benefit from an overly simple design.

The prototype of the image hides behind the front wheels a set of generously sized perforated discs equipped with big calipers, the rear it's also equipped with discs, whose shape gives us to understand very clearly that they are quite effective even at high speeds.

The most accessible version of the SL will feature a 3.5-liter V6 engine, which will offer 305 hp (224 kW). There will be an AMG variant, but those that can't affort this version will be available the SL500, which has a 435 horsepower (320 kW) V8 unit.
