New generation Mercedes SLK presented in Geneva has glass top, and the most interesting that the driver can vary degree of a transparency at own discretion. Blackout is steered by electronics. This option is named "Magic Sky Control", that is a kind of control air by magic. As more accessible alternative the roof from dark glass, and also traditional metal top is offered. Style of the car has exchanged considerably. Probably, it seemed to someone that the German roadster of former generation is a female walking car. About new so precisely you will not tell. Strong-willed features hint that the balance between sports and comfort is displaced in favor of the first. The basic innovations concern the chassis. Here, as well as in a case with a roof, three variants. The most interesting, of course, is an active suspender, control stiffness which can be directly on the fly. Also Mercedes on a choice has two variants of a traditional suspender: base and rigid.The flagman motor at SLK now the new. It is 3,5-liter V6, giving out 306 h.p. On the dispersal to 100 km/h it is necessary for it only 5,6 sec. However, BMW Z4 35i at the same capacity faster — 5,2 sec.Even in the case with sporty roadster Germans are trying to emphasize what wonders they have managed to achieve profitability. Here, for example, base SLK 200 with the 7-step automatic machine consumes fuel, as a midget car, — 5,6 l/100 km of a way. And dynamics at it completely not such modest. The motor developing 184 h.p., allows to type 100 km/h for 7 sec.
As alternative to the mentioned versions while one variant — SLK 250 (204 h.p.) serves only. But later there will be also other versions, including extreme SLK AMG. Sales Mercedes SLK of new generation start in June.
