From the house of Mercedes-Benz, the Mercedes-Benz SL-Class forms an influential part of the series of luxury automobiles launched by the renowned manufacturer. SL, meaning "Sport Light", first appeared on the 1954 300SL 'Gullwing' so named because of its upward-opening passenger doors.
Mercedes-Benz SL-500 offers an overwhelming sporting experience. One of its kind as the The New SL-Class Roadster is the first Mercedes to be equipped with SENSOTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL (SBC). This electro hydraulic braking system achieves an even more dynamic braking feel, with impressive deceleration. In emergency braking, SBC reduces the car's stopping distance. It also enhances safety when braking during cornering, by optimizing the brake force distribution between the wheels. Mercedes-Benz SL-500 has 8 V, 5.0 L engine that generates an output of 306 bhp @ 5600rpm and a torque of 460 Nm.
