Maybe a Mercedes-AMG isn't your dream car, but I think few people will turn down this AMG roadster!
The Mercedes-AMG SL 43 Mercedes-Benz SL Class has a long history, with the first products dating back to the 1950s. As the originator of Ouyimen, Mercedes-Benz 300 SL is now more of a wealth management product, much stronger than buying funds... This article this Mercedes-Benz SL-class AMG is already the seventh generation of the SL class, this generation of models developed by the AMG division and only available in the AMG version, there will be no ordinary version.
Last year, the SL 63 and SL 55 with 4.0T V8 engines were officially unveiled, and now the start-up version of the SL 43 is here. The biggest change in the new car is the powertrain, which halves the displacement and the number of cylinders. The M139 series four-cylinder engine, the "strongest 2.0T on surface", powers the Mercedes-AMG SL 43 and is also equipped with a 48V light mixing system. The engine has a maximum power of 381Ps, a peak torque of 480 N·m, and a 48V motor can provide an additional 14 horsepower in a short period of time.
It is worth mentioning that this engine uses an electric turbocharging system, which is located between the turbine impeller and the compressor impeller, the main component is a small electric motor integrated on the turbocharger shaft, before the turbine receives a sufficient amount of exhaust air, the motor drives the turbocharger to feed fresh air into the compressor impeller in advance, thus greatly reducing turbo lag.
The drivetrain is still powered by an AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 9-speed gearbox and is driven as a rear drive. The official acceleration time from 0 to 100 km/h is 4.9 seconds, and the top speed can reach 275 km/h. In addition, rear-wheel steering, multiple driving modes and the AMG Dynamic Plus suite will not be absent from the Mercedes-AMG SL 43, and models equipped with the AMG Dynamic Plus suite will add features such as Race mode, electronic limited-slip rear differential, and the suspension will be reduced by 10mm.
As a soft-top roadster, the Mercedes-AMG SL has not forgotten to maintain elegance while creating a sporty atmosphere, and the recognition and return rate will definitely not disappoint you. The LED headlight shape is very sharp, although the size of the straight waterfall type net is not large, but with the Mercedes-Benz LOGO with a large bowl mouth, the aura is also in place. This SL 43 front surround has an approximate through-through design, which is not as fierce as the two 4.0T big brothers.
The fullness is the tone of the side, coupled with the design of the long front, the visual effect is elegant and stylish. The door handles are concealed, and the word TURBO ELECTRIFIED is underneath the black and silver trim of the front fenders, which is the V8 BITURBO 4MATIC+ logo on both V8 models.
The 21-inch multi-spoke rim used in the official model is an optional configuration, and the standard configuration is 19-inch rim. The tires are in the Michelin PS4S series with a size of 275/35 ZR21. In addition, the new car is equipped with perforated ventilated brake discs.
The tail can be described as plump, the near-triangular taillights echo the headlights, and the upper parts of the left and right light groups are marked by AMG and SL 43 respectively. The rear surround of this entry-level model lacks longitudinal opening decoration on both sides, and the four-out exhaust on both sides also adopts a circular design. Compared to the SL 63, the rear of the new car is more handsome. As a performance sports car, the electric lifting tail is a basic configuration, which can increase the downforce and at the same time pull the wind more.
The sense of luxury and quality of the interior is beyond doubt, and the black and white color scheme is more upscale. The center console adopts an approximately symmetrical design, and the four circular air conditioner air outlets are divided into the left and right of the central control screen. The full LCD instrument and the longitudinal arrangement of the central control screen are equipped, and the UI interface is the Mercedes-Benz family style we are familiar with, which is simple and modern.
The steering wheel is sturdy and embellished with silver and bright black accents and the AMG logo. The two knobs below control the suspension, driving mode and other functions respectively help to improve the sense of performance.
The white leather-wrapped seats not only have a diamond-shaped texture, but also the AMG logo and neck warmer, which can be regarded as a unique accessory to the convertible model. In terms of functions, the front seats are equipped with heating, ventilation and position memory functions.
The two seats in the second row are more suitable for petite passengers, and I think most of the time both seats will be used as storage space. epilogue
The new generation of SL-Class based on the MSA modular sports car platform developed by AMG has an elegant, smooth and dynamic appearance, and the convertible can be full of return rates in an instant. Although the Mercedes-AMG SL 43 will lower the barrier to entry for this roadster, it is still out of reach or even a bit of a nihilistic existence for most people in the world. If you want to become the owner of the Mercedes-AMG-Mercedes-Benz SL-class AMG, of course, you have to rely on self-struggle, but you also have to consider the course of history, maybe when I have saved enough money, the fuel car has entered the museum...
