The all-new Mercedes-Benz SLC will mark the relaunch of the Mercedes-Benz compact roadster models in March 2016. The new SLC is closely tied to the Mercedes-Benz C-Class and ranges from the entry model SLC 180 to the top-of-the-line Mercedes-AMG SLC 43. The SLC’s predecessor is the SLK, which debuted back in 1996 and achieved a sales figure of some 670,000 units. With that in mind, the SLC has quite a standard to live up to.<\/p>\n
The SLC 250d and AMG SLC 43 are both to feature the sport and comfort oriented 9G-TRONIC automatic transmission, while it will be optional for the less potent SLC 100 and SLC 200 editions. The SLC 100 and SLC 200 come with a six-speed manual gearbox as standard. The signature diamond grille will be standard on all SLC models.<\/p>\n
