The 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class is a part of the iconic luxury roadster's sixth generation, noted for its high-performance and luxurious offerings. The lineup offers three trims - SL550, SL63 AMG, and the high-performance SL65 AMG. The SL550 is powered by a 4.7-liter V8 that delivers 429 horsepower, whereas the top-tier SL65 holds a 6.0-liter V12 beast under the hood pumping out 621 horsepower. Both are mated to a seven-speed automatic transmission with rear-wheel-drive. The notable safety features include Mercedes' PRE-SAFE system that tightens seatbelts and adjusts seating positions when a collision is imminent. On the tech front, it includes an advanced COMMAND infotainment system with a 7-inch display, smartphone integration, and a Harman Kardon surround-sound audio system. The 2013 model year introduced several upgrades, including lighter body panels and improved fuel efficiency.
