The SLK class is one of the marvels from the family of Mercedes Benz which has succeeded in creating its own special niche in the mindsets of sports car buffs. This luxury roadster has been around since 1977, and has spanned two generations currently.
The earlier versions of the SLK were quite conservative in outlook with extremely soft and smooth lines which rather appealed to the fairer sex. But the latest models have an aggressive and dynamic design that offer a really powerful driving experience.
Powered by the V6 engines that give tremendous output and torque, the new generation SLK range has 4 different types of petrol engines on offer. The dynamic suspension is strong enough and gives the car a much needed agility and precision. The transmission system is also something to brag about and the new series comes with an upgraded world-class six-speed manual transmission as well as a seven-speed automatic gear system in select models.
