Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG

I have for your viewing pleasure a total of six videos on the new Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG. The new AMG-only sportscar is powered by a 6.2 liter V8 putting out 571 PS at 6,800rpm and 792Nm of torque at 4,750rpm. The engine is similiar to the bread and butter normally aspirated 6.2 liter V8 AMG engine designated M156, but in the SLS AMG it is called the M159 and has a few changes including a new intake system, revised valves and cams, and a dry sump instead of a wet sump. It’s a modern take on the 300SL Gullwing, but still retains its old school looks in a nice blend of retro-futurism.

Watch the videos after the jump.

    Adrenaline pumping on the seats of its’ driver and under the engine hood.
    Truly an astonishing and another beauty production from Mercedes Benz.
    Price tag should be above RM1,000,000.

    How does a naturally aspirated engine put out so much torque? The torque levels are similar to the CLK AMG DTM that had a smaller engine but was supercharged. Impressive.
