Gullwing Merc is back!
The new Mercedes supercar has spread its wings at last! These exclusive pictures show the SLS completely undisguised for the first time ever.
And as you can see, it’s a truly stunning machine, combining the classic gullwing doors, long bonnet and clipped tail of the original 300SL with more modern details including LED lights, flush-fitting chrome exhaust tailpipes and sporty alloy wheels.
But the SLS is not all about looks. Under that huge nose you’ll find an uprated version of tuning arm AMG’s award-winning 6.3-litre V8 engine, mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. Producing 570bhp, it propels the gullwing from 0-60mph in less than four seconds, and on to an unrestricted top speed of nearly 200mph.
Sales are due to start next summer, with each model costing around £150,000. But that’s not the only big Mercedes news this week. The maker also confirmed work has started on its first-ever all-electric supercar.
