Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Gullwing








The Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Gullwing is the first car developed in-house by Mercedes' performance division AMG. This is a real sports car with a heritage. The new SLS by Mercedes Benz is a beautiful reincarnation of the iconic car. But it is not just mimicking the original car but bettering it in every aspect using its soul.

Unique technology package:

An AMG 6.3-litre V8 front-mid engine developing a healthy 571 hp at 6800 rpm peak output and dry sump lubrication, seven-speed dual-clutch transmission in a transaxle configuration and sports suspension with aluminum double wishbones sums up the package. The SLS AMG Gullwing comes with an aluminum space frame body with gullwing doors and body with a 48/52 weight distribution between front and rear, with the help of the low placed front-mid engine. 0 to 60 mph acceleration will be completed in 3.5 seconds. There's a self-imposed speed limit of 196 mph.
The car will be sold for a price that slots right between Corvette ZR1 and Ferrari California.
