Performance lies at the heart of the Mercedes-AMG® lineup, and the AMG® SL 43 Roadster is no exception. This new entry point into the SL Roadster line is equipped with a Handcrafted AMG® 2.0L turbocharged engine with an electric exhaust gas turbocharger– a direct development from the Mercedes-AMG® Petronas racing team for Formula 1®. Exclusively available in rear-wheel drive, this powertrain is combined with the AMG® SPEEDSHIFT®® MCT nine-speed automatic transmission, providing smooth shifting around Los Angeles while outputting up to 375 hp and 354 lb-ft of torque. Altogether, the Mercedes-AMG® SL 43 Roadster is capable of accelerating from 0-60 mph in as little as 4.8 seconds, ensuring thrills and heart-pounding performance on every drive.*
To make the most of the engine performance, the 2023 Mercedes-AMG® SL 43 Roadster is engineered to be lightweight, rigid, and– most importantly– stylish. Built with a combination of aluminum, high-strength steel, magnesium, and fiber composites and an electric soft top hood for a reduction of nearly 50 pounds, the AMG® SL 43 Roadster is light on the Pasadena roads, with a low center of gravity for more effective handling and dynamic driving. In addition to the impressive engineering, the Mercedes-AMG® SL 43 Roadster makes a bold statement wherever it roams with its angular double-tailpipe trim, unique front fascia, and rear apron. Drivers will have a wide range of colors to choose from, allowing them to personalize the design of their new Mercedes-AMG® SL Roadster.
The interior of the AMG® SL 43 Roadster is as versatile as it is intuitive. Bring your friends and family along for the Alhambra ride with the flexible 2+2 seating (two seats in the front, two seats in the rear), all while enjoying the standard comfort of power-adjustable heated and cooled multi-contour seats in Nappa leather. The cockpit is as comfortable and intuitive as the seating, with a blend of analog geometry and digital innovation, giving drivers a classic Mercedes-Benz feel without sacrificing modern amenities. Take control of your drive with the 11.9-inch central touchscreen, which tilt-adjusts to avoid top-down glare from the sun, and the 12.3-inch LCD instrument cluster comes equipped with a high-tech visor to reduce glare.
