Mercedes SLS AMG

The Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG is a grand tourer automobile developed by Mercedes-AMG to replace the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren. This is the first car designed by Mercedes-AMG and is described by Mercedes-Benz as a spiritual successor to the 300 SL Gullwing. was presented in 2009 at the Frankfurt Motor Show, and started selling in 2010. In 2010, the SLS AMG was the safety car in Formula 1, and was in the category of the FIA ​​GT3 version SLS AMG GT3.

The Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG is assembled in Sindelfingen, Germany.

Design

The SLS AMG was designed to be a modern 300SL Gullwing revival by Mark Fetherston from October 2006 to April 2007. The SLS AMG has also adapted the feature of wing doors that will swing open upwards on gas struts, and the doors must be closed manually as AMG engineers decided against auto-closing systems because the systems would have added 90 pounds (41 kg) to the car. In case of a roll-over, the doors can be fully detached to allow the occupants to leave the vehicle.

Although there is some overlapping in price and performance, the lighter SLS AMG is considered more of a sporty track-oriented car, compared to the Mercedes-Benz SL which is a more autobahn-focused grand tourer especially with its optional V12 engine. Compared to the SLS AMG Roadster, the SL is a hardtop convertible with technological and comfort amenities, and it also has available heated and cooled seats with a massage function. The SLS AMG has also been said to be one of the cheapest cars on the market with an unusual door design.
