Now you know all about the SLS faster than ever: technical specifications, appearance, performance, weight, ... The only thing that was missing was to see her moving to have better idea waiting to finally be able to see live. Mercedes did not wait long since a few days after his presentation, here's already the video trailer.

 

Unfortunately, in this movie there is shadow of the sound that is output from the four exhaust pipes. It seems that we need to wait for Stuttgart before moving to the next step. What we do know, however, is that the new SLS AMG Black Series is fast. Very fast.

 

Due to its naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V8 from 630 HP, the German super manages to pulverize the 0-100 km/h in just 3.6 seconds while its top speed is touching the 315 km/h. Her weight has been greatly reduced with the introduction of several elements in composite materials such as carbon fiber.

 

The official presentation of the Black Series is scheduled for 2012 Los Angeles motor show in late November while reservations can already be made. However, deliveries will start as early as June 2013.
