Mercedes SL-Class Sports Package


Mercedes Benz has released a new sports package for its SL-Class that includes styling enhancements both inside and out plus a few minor modifications to the car’s intake system and transmission programming. Setting apart cars kitted with the sports pack from standard models are the unique 19in five-spoke alloys, which house silver-painted front brake calipers and huge perforated brake discs. Dark-tinted tail light units form a further distinguishing feature.

Mechanical changes include a new sports air filter and the upgraded 7G-TRONIC Sport seven-speed automatic transmission. Apart from a manual shift program, the new transmission also comes with steering-wheel shift paddles in both the SL350 and the SL500. The interior gets silver-colored stitching combined with perforated Nappa leather and aluminum trim. The sports pack is only available for the SL350 and SL500 models and is priced at €2975.
