Inspired by the finish line, since racing began.
Performance pedigree. Only one automaker can claim winning the first car race in history as part of its own lineage. But rather than looking back, Mercedes-Benz
prefers to keep making new history. For the SLK-Class, racing is more than a styling inspiration. It also served as the official pace car of Formula 1, and is engineered to
bring track-honed performance to the open road — with a choice of powerful V-6 engines, athletic handling, newly standard Sport lower body styling, and its signature
retractable hardtop. Whether carving through corners or slicing through the wind, the SLK-Class has the power, poise and precision to honor its motorsports heritage.
Fast forward. A 228-hp V-6 rushes the SLK 300 from 0 to
0 mph in a mere 6.1 seconds. The SLK 350’s 300-hp V-6,
decked in a red-accented engine cover, races you there
in just 5.4 seconds. Continuously variable timing of their
4 valves helps both engines generate abundant torque.
Slick shifting. Standard on the SLK 350 and an SLK 300
option, a driver-adaptive 7-speed automatic transmission
features Touch Shift control. The optional Sport Packages
add steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters. A short-throw
6-speed manual gearbox is standard on the SLK 300.
Functional flash. The futuristic, Formula 1–inspired
nose is set off by seductive darkened headlamp inlays,
further accented by chrome grille fins on the SLK 350.
The optional Lighting Package pierces the night with
Bi-Xenon headlamps and corner-illuminating foglamps.
