Mercedes-Benz SLC

Mercedes-Benz SLC

It’s no secret that Mercedes-Benz and its performance divisions AMG and HWA are planning to release several new models in the coming years including a high-performance coupe said to replace the outgoing SLR and compete SL Black Series from AMG. Almost nothing is known on this car except then it will have a long nose and a lot of power. MotorAuthority claims it’ll be called the SLC and that it will runn on the same 6.2 liter V8 that sits in the Black Series SL. The output will be around 670 bhp.

Another key feature of the car will be a pair of gullwing doors, which is a throwback to the 1950’s 300 SL. Enjoy the first sounds of the test mule captured at the Nürburgring!
