First the power then the passion. The SL 63 AMG combines both thanks to its 6.3-litre, 8-cylinder engine
which delivers 386 kW and up to 630 Nm of torque. Power is transferred by the AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 7-speed sports transmission, which combines the spontaneity of a manual transmission with the convenience of an automatic. The sports transmission gives you the choice of four driving programmes. You can opt for the characteristics of dynamic manual gear-changing, through to comfortable cruising - it’s your decision on how the power of the SL 63 AMG will unfold. In addition, the SL 63 AMG is equipped with Hill-Start Assist. This prevents the vehicle from rolling backwards unintentionally on a slope when moving from the brake pedal to the accelerator.
These features, like all the other dynamic handling control functions, can be controlled centrally thanks to the AMG DRIVE UNIT. Furthermore, the AMG sports transmission features a Race Start function for optimal acceleration with the best possible traction – just as in the world of motorsport.
The Active Body Control (ABC) active suspension provides the maximum driving comfort for sports car driving through a combination of active suspension and passive damping. With it, the sprung mass vibrations of the vehicle body when pulling away and braking can be reduced just as significantly as vehicle roll when cornering.
