In the minds of the majority of riders, performance sports cars have large-displacement, high-power engines, six cylinders are the starting point, and eight cylinders are the best. But this vision is becoming increasingly difficult to achieve under the constraints of emission regulations, and small displacement engines have gradually appeared in the engine compartments of performance sports cars, such as the Mercedes-Benz AMG SL 43. And it will soon be equipped with a 2.0T engine.
The engine model is M254, which has been tuned by the AMG division to achieve a maximum power of 385Ps, while the 48V mixing system can also provide an additional output of 20Ps, making the total power of the AMG SL 43 exceed 400Ps. In addition to the mild hybrid version, the AMG SL series will also be available in a plug-in hybrid version.
