Mercedes-Benz AMG SL 2022 is undergoing a major transformation. It now comes from Affalterbach rather than Stuttgart. Therefore, it will be exclusively marketed by Mercedes-AMG. Also, it has gained a power-folding soft top, with a pair of rear seats and the standard all-wheel-drive for the first time in its history.

Mercedes-Benz AMG SL Mutation

More a grand tourer than a true sports car is how the SL has been characterizing in most current decades. However, this ends here, the ensuing mutation does start with a design. In fact, its proportions, in fact, have been completely recalibrating. It is now being characterizing by a long hood, a short trunk lid, and short overhangs on both ends. Its front fascia falls perfectly in line with Mercedes-Benz’s current design language by adopting angular headlights and the Panamericana grille-mounted relatively low. Outback, horizontal rear lights are integrating into a more rounded panel, and there’s a massive air diffuser.

The power-operated cloth unit does weigh 46 pounds less. The reduction does lower the center of gravity. Moreover, it can be therefore operating in 15 seconds at speeds occurring at 37 mph. However, buyers of the vehicles have three colors to choose from.

The new SL, from particular angles, is a reasonable evolution of the GT Roadster. The AMG is a model developing in-house from the ground up and it does not share a single component with the last-generation SL or the version that is topless from the GT.

Performance and Technology

AMG includes technology while it was designing for performance. Moreover, the driver is facing a 12.3-inch digital instrumental cluster. In fact, the center stack is therefore controlling by an 11.9-inch touchscreen which does display the most current generation of the Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) infotainment system. Moreover, the screen can be tilting electronically from 12 to 32 degrees to reduce glare.

A comeback in the SL after a long hiatus is in the rear seats. In a similar way, the Porsche 911 is a four-seater. However, it is not recommended putting adults back in there. In fact, AMG does note the space can also be using as a storage compartment for golf bags.
