  The brightest star under the sky

  Its body is shaped as much by its rich racing heritage as by countless hours in the wind tunnel. Its crossblade grille and signature power hardtop spark instant recognition, but its broad shoulders and athletic stance ignite immediate passion for the open road. And while its LED Daytime Running Lamps and taillamps exude scintillating style, its aluminum-trimmed roll bars assert that the substance within is equally brilliant.

  20 seconds that can transform you

  Like the iconic 300SL had its Gullwing doors, the hallmark of the SLK is its power retractable hardtop. In under 20 seconds, it folds into the trunk, leaving ample luggage space and delivering open-roadster euphoria. Choose from the standard steel roof or two Panorama roof options: a tinted see-through panel, or an innovative electronically variable tinted panel called MAGIC SKY CONTROL.

  An embrace that sets you free

  Pure sports-car magic: two seats that hold you close while placing every joy of driving at your fingertips. The impeccable SLK cockpit offers both an intimate bond with the open road and a sense of total escape: Power sports seats with deep side bolsters. A racy flat-bottom steering wheel. And to reward your every glance, crisp metallic trim on its gauges, controls and the round air vents inspired by the SLS AMG supercar.

• 

  Style from start to finish

  The beauty of an SLK is not just how well it fits, but how perfectly it suits you. Sporty coupe or open roadster. Pure performance with rich refinement. And as modern or classic as you want it to be. Hand-fitted upholstery is set off by cool aluminum trim on the console and doors. You can also opt for super-soft Premium leather, sleek Black Ash wood, or the warmth of the Trim Package, with Burl Walnut wood on the steering wheel, shift knob and console.

heated seats - Premium 1 Package

Electrically heated seats quickly take the chill out of even the coldest day. Three levels of warming automatically step down after several minutes to the lowest setting.

1.8L turbo-4

A Direct Injection 201-hp 1.8-liter four in the SLK250 combines numerous innovations and an intercooled turbo to deliver 229 lb-ft of peak torque, more than the previous V-6. A lightweight diecast-alloy block, quicker and more widely variable valve timing, reduced friction, and clever ˜on-demand˜ ancillary components like the alternator further boost efficiency.

18-inch AMG 5-spoke alloy wheels

A major point of appeal of the optional Sport Package is its 18-inch AMG alloy wheels. Five tapered spokes each feature a geometric pocket surrounding the lugs, for a aggressive look even standing still. Staggered in width, the rear wheels and high-performance tires are wider than their front-axle counterparts, for greater acceleration grip without sacrificing crisp steering feedback.

3.5L V-6

A Direct Injection 3.5-liter V-6 outputs 302 hp and 273 lb-ft of torque in the SLK350. Numerous advances team up to deliver more torque over a wider range of rpm. A lightweight diecast-alloy block, quicker and more widely variable valve timing, reduced friction, and clever ˜on-demand˜ ancillary components like the alternator further boost efficiency.

Specifically engineered for the SLK-Class, this premium digital sound system fills the cabin with 500 watts of beautifully balanced audio.

Trim Package

The classic look and feel of hand-polished Burl Walnut wood trim adorns the console and doors, and accents the wood/leather steering wheel and shift knob.

Adaptive Brakes

Powerful 4-wheel disc brakes feature a number of advances. If you lift off the accelerator quickly, Predictive Brake Priming sets the pads closer to the discs for more immediate response when you apply the brakes. In the rain, Automatic Brake Drying periodically applies the brakes just enough to sweep water build-up from the discs. During uphill starts, Hill-Start Assist helps prevent unwanted rollback. And a HOLD feature can make long red lights or stopped traffic a little easier

MAGIC SKY CONTROL

An SLK-Class exclusive, this innovative evolution of the Panorama sunroof concept alters the transparency of the roof when electrical current is applied. At its darkest setting, the thermal energy entering the cabin is less than a household light bulb. And even in its fully transparent mode, both UV and infrared rays are effectively blocked, helping keep the cabin cooler.

Music Register

Music Register allows you to store up to 10GB of your own digital music on the in-dash hard drive. It lets you copy songs from your CDs, DVDs and certain memory devices and save them to your vehicle's audio system, so you can listen to them anytime and anywhere you drive.

Eight air bags

The SLK's sophisticated restraint system includes front air bags with dual deployment thresholds, as well as new head air bags, plus thorax side-impact air bags and knee bags for both driver and passenger.

Premium leather

Super-soft Premium leather is hand-fitted to the seats in this luxurious upgrade option. It's available in Black with Grey stitching, or an exclusive Bengal Red leather with Black trim and contrasting stitching.

SiriusXM Traffic

SiriusXM Traffic keeps you up to date on accidents, traffic, construction and road closures, and even helps the optional navigation system divert you around traffic. New Sirius Weather delivers detailed, graphical weather reports and forecasts.

HD Radio™

Delivering remarkably clear audio that gives AM stations the crispness of FM radio, and FM stations CD-grade sound, HD Radio® also offers a larger bandwidth that can actually increase the number of stations available to you.

direct ambient lighting

Quite literally a highlight of the Sport Package is nighttime outlining of the console and doors with Solar Red direct ambient lighting.
