Next Generation Mercedes-Benz SL Tested

The legend lives on: pre-production vehicles of the new SL Roadster embark on extensive road tests: Comprehensive practical trials of the new edition of the roadster icon in full swing

Affalterbach August 27, 2020; . The next generation of the legendary SL Roadster is going back to its roots, which lay in motorsport back in 1952. Mercedes-AMG, as the performance and sports car brand of Mercedes-Benz AG, has fittingly taken on the task of overall vehicle development for the reinterpretation of the legendary roadster. Following extensive digital development steps, test stand runs and simulator trials the new sports car is now entering a scheduled phase of wide-ranging dynamic driving tests – thus far at the Group's own Test and Technology Centre in Immendingen – and now also on public roads in some cases.
