The design of the new SLK is the embodiment of driving pleasure combined with undiluted aesthetic appeal. Sculpted lines, the finest materials and high-quality craftsmanship right down to the smallest detail make the new SLK a roadster without parallels, whether open for top-down cruising or closed for sporty sprints. The choice is yours.
The look of the extended front section immediately marks out the car as a member of the Mercedes-Benz sports-car family. Its coupé-esque side view, with lines flowing into the muscular rear wing and short rear end, displays more than a hint of aggressiveness even when the car is stationary. When the vario-roof is opened, it disappears into the boot to leave a hallmark roadster silhouette. | |
While dynamism dominates the exterior, the interior is all about sporty luxury. The materials are of exclusive quality – selected and combined with unerring attention to detail. The ergonomic and intelligent design is built around the driver. The cockpit is a reminiscence to the world of motor racing with its 3-spoke multifunction sports steering wheel in nappa leather with flattened lower section and sports seats with integrated headrests. Metal surfaces in silver-chrome, and the centre console in brushed aluminium underscore the sporty character of the new SLK in a particular manner. |
