  • New MAGIC SKY CONTROL

    The stars are aligned

    A Mercedes-Benz exclusive, the Panorama roof with MAGIC SKY CONTROL alters its transparency by uniformly orienting particles embedded within its glass panel when electrical current is applied. At its darkened setting, the thermal energy entering the cabin is less than a household lightbulb. And even in its fully transparent mode, both UV and infrared rays are effectively blocked, helping keep the cabin cooler.

  • AIRSCARF neck-level heating

    More thrills, fewer chills

    The Premium 1 Package (optional on the SLK250, standard on the other models) helps you transcend the seasons. In addition to heated seats, it includes the innovative AIRSCARF neck-level heating system. By delivering warmed air from the head restraints, it lets you enjoy top-down driving in cooler weather. New AIRGUIDE wind deflectors are clear, manually pivoting draft-stops on each roll bar.

  • The future of safety

    In the moment, and for your future

    The SLK-Class raises the bar for roadster safety engineering, even with the top down. Its exceptionally rigid body extensively uses ultra-high-strength steel, aluminum and magnesium. Its dual roll bars are fiber-reinforced. Eight air bags and advanced adaptive braking technology are standard. And ATTENTION ASSIST can alert the driver it detects signs of drowsiness on longer trips.  (Disclaimer)

    The roll bar system is designed to enhance the level of rollover protection compared to a vehicle without one. No system, regardless of how advanced, can eliminate the chance of injury in an accident. Please always wear your seat belt.

    WARNING: THE FORCES OF A DEPLOYING AIR BAG CAN CAUSE SERIOUS OR FATAL INJURIES TO A CHILD UNDER AGE 13. SEE OPERATOR´S MANUAL FOR ADDITIONAL WARNINGS AND INFORMATION ON AIR BAGS, SEAT BELTS AND CHILD SEATS.

    Driving while drowsy or distracted is dangerous and should be avoided. ATTENTION ASSIST may be insufficient to alert a fatigued or distracted driver of lane drift and cannot be relied on to avoid an accident or serious injury.
