Its fast but that fuel consumption will leave you broke 🤣 you can literally see the fuel level drop, I guess you'll need that 30km of EV range when you need to find a gas station
@@memorimusic420 What I meant was that actually the older version(s) of SL they all used to have a distinguishing, unique, and exclusive design you could recognize it from miles away. Now this gen although it's still recognizable as an SL, but again same angles and design language that can be seen and found in CLS and A Class
I can't believe how quick it gets to 325kmh! It looked like it had loads left as well? But most of all, it looked so planted and stable at that speed,the Germans do these type of autobahn munching machines the best, what an absolute brilliant engineering masterpiece..
Remebering the S63, i was not really convinced by the new 63E Models, but this thing goes like hell! Imagine the performance and topspeed in a much leighter car
I wonder how many will be on the road in 10 years when the third owner has a $15,000 bill for some obscure part failure. I'm probably just old but damn, the cost and complexity of these new performance cars is unreal.
Same shit in the comments for every new damn car. Look at an SL63 from 20 years ago, do you think that's cheap to run? Or a CL65? 15k goes very quickly with one of those. If you want something reliable and cheap to run get a C220d, cars like this one are for people in a very different income bracket than you and me. Someone buying one used doesn't buy it because they can't afford a new one, they buy it because they don't *want* a new one.
@@adampavella1225 U cant compare cars from that Era and time whit new ones. Build isnt the same new cars neva gonna last 20years. Back then they made them to be best factory can give today very difrent story sadly.
@@yyhbackagain5013 Doesn't make any sense now. This "small" convertible weights 2200 kg. That's literally almost 400 kg heavier than the previous m5 which is a big sedan. While yes the new m5 is a ridiculous boat, its almost useless to disociate cars in different category when it comes to straight line performance since a little coupe can weight more than a stupid pick up nowdays lol
Why did they not use this "63" engine in the C63 ? Also why is the SL400 a 4 cylinder if they were going to make the SL63 a V8 ? None of this line up makes any sense.
The logic behind the 4cyl C63 was that all C class models were going to have 4 cylinders, E class would have up to 6 cylinders and top of the line S, SL and GT cars would get a V8. Market made it clear very quickly that such approach was not going to be successful. As for the SL400, there is no such car (in the R232 generation), I assume you mean the SL43. Yeah, that's a bit of a weird one, they wanted to make an entry level SL and they had the 4 cylinder laying around. It's a good engine with decent output, just not exactly fit for an SL. Anyway, it sells amazingly well, it's by far the most common SL I see on the road. Sadly, a lot of buyers don't really care about the engine, they just want the status that comes with an AMG SL convertible and Mercedes were very aware of this
What surprised me most before the Autobahn runs was the ~50 kmh entry into the 180. It looked so planted it's almost like you could feel it through the video, and it didn't look like Max had to brace before it either.
Just a little hint: if you want to turn off the speed limit warning, you can just push the little icon in the top left corner of the screen or push & hold the mute button on the steering wheel for 2 seconds. Much easier than flipping through the menus. This works for mostly all new Mercedes-Benz Models.
Very powerful, absolutely fast, super sporty and luxurious at the same time, I wonder which car or cars will the SL 63 S E-Performance take on in a drag race. I love it😎🔥💪🏽
I wonder if any of the other german brands like BMW will have a competitor for this car. I mean, if they put the new M5's powertrain into the M8 cabrio then maybe? Still would be almost 100 hp difference though. As far as I know, nothing really comes close to this SL performance-wise as far as convertibles go, right?
I don't think people really understand how crazy this car is. It's basically a refined Mercedes SL with Hypercar performance. Completely bonkers and like nothing I've seen on the channel. His reaction says it all.
Headlight technology is not discussed too much unfortunately. Please consider presenting in detail headlights in future videos as the technology is quite cool nowadays.
Yeah, and you get so much tech nobody ask for ❕😅 If I had the money to affort a car... I would choose an older car. These modern cars with all the nanys and beeping all the time would make me stupid 😂
Well, the Veyron is 20 years old (depending on model year) and car performance has been growing at an extremely high rate. What was once hyper car performance years ago can be found in some super cars.

One of the better looking AMGs these days
Yes, and suits the SL moniker, brawn in a sophisticated suit.
still nothing to how it used to look :(
You can't deny the fact that this car, A class, and CLS Class have really similar front-end design. Looks like shared design language
@@ravenheart369 its sad to say but the design looks the best on the A class. It used to be the other way around

What a machine. While watching it somehow gave me the feeling that they used some tech from the AMG One.
the lower blade stuff, yeah sure!
and that's even stock ! xD
elaborate i'm curious
u think this is better than a m156 jus coz sum numbers?
I kinda doubt it. Nothing connects the two cars. Not engine, not gearbox, etc.
That car is mad.
From 0 to 100 km/h in 2.66 seconds.. Awesome 🔥
I just put the footage into my editing software and to be exact: it were 2.4 seconds!
Where?
@ in his first test of going from 0 to 100. you just need to measure it yourself
@@KickOnYT true
Porsche 911 turbo s makes faster with only 650hp
Good for Porsche 👍😊@@PabloMontana-bk8lk
damn the 0-300 is done in like 23-24 seconds thats mad
This car is insane, 320km so effortlessly. Would love to see Porche go up against it in a drag race.
ring matt watson
@@gottahide7950 no, they make all fast cars slow.
Because it s a four seater and it s one of the best motor in world car production this is an absolute must have !
One of the best reviews of all time. It's like I am in the car with you. Great work.
Love the instant throttle response, great performance too considering it's so heavy.
holy crap that thing pulls like an EV but with a V8
Long live that wonderful AMG V8, hybrid or not, what a lovely car 👍
As someone from Northern California, it warms my heart to hear a European say "hella."
Astonishing power. Like making the jump to hyperspace! Hate that it's a hybrid but I respect it.
Brutal car, nice to see that MB can still build great cars.
man what a machine. this is a monstrous AMG
fastest factory convertible right hurrrr
ferrari enter the chat
Turbo s enters the chat
@@bikopastic5164 this one weight like 500kg more. and 0.39s slower then 650hp turbo S 100-200 :>
Turbo s? Ferrari 488 spider? Probably a host of other cars aswell.
@@JKV. Yh it is a boat and it is slower. Don't get your point, it's slower and probably terrible in corners, doesn't come close to a Turbo S.

Dont know why I'm so obsessed with this car there's a middle aged man at my gym who has this in white and its spotless
What a Maschine..one of the best and fastest convertible at the market..congrats AMG 🔥
Hella-yeah. Mercedes-Benz for the win. Absolutely number One in road presence for German luxury

Totally agree. I’d take 458 Spider over this any day.

Nothing will ever equal the complexity and expense of transmissions, to this date we still don't have a simpler way of changing gears

😂
been waiting for this...what a beautiful machine.
This is what new m5 should have delivered
Naah it’s an M5 maybe M7/M8 possibly
Its not the same class at all, one is a small convertible with 100 hp more than a huge sedan. Obviously the M5 doesnt perform this way.

Mercedes have got the looks and the luxury of a car
Yeah amg smashed it with this one👌
maaaan fav mercedes EVER OMG sooo good :O
Perfect winter car 👌
Next SL will have 2 cylinders on the backwheels, and 8 electric motors with 63kw.
😂😂😂
Can’t wait for you guys to try out the GT63 Coupe as well. Interested to see how it compares to the SL.
This is really cool. Porsche has always been my dream
Unbelievable acceleration!
If I would buy this car I would spec it in the same way this black with yellow stitching looks so great! And the V8 sound so lovely!
Duude I have a c63s with the yellow strips and yellow details like this, it looks SOOOO gorgeous😍
@ really nice car man! One of my favorite cars
Why did they not use this "63" engine in the C63 ? Also why is the SL400 a 4 cylinder if they were going to make the SL63 a V8 ? None of this line up makes any sense.
They need to change their naming scheme its just nonsensical now.
@@martinsv9183Lol not really. Smaller number = less power. Not that hard to understand really

It’s a stupid marketing name
I can answer your question on how they think. Look at the price of SL63 and C63 and it will become clear why they didn't use the same engine
The release is fresh as bread
When most cars are doing 100kph in about 10 seconds this car is already pulling hard at 220kph.
Wicked fast machine.
I'm normally BMW guy but this one is just so perfect, dream car
Your BMW won't be in the shop 1/2 as much.

The turbo spooling is devine🎉
203 mph in a convertible is crazy
Wasn't the R230 in that range? SL55AMG AMS-Test in Nardo 325km/h, SL65 214mph? Ok this one has a way faster acceleration...
Feeling proud that its has a V8❤🥹
Can't imagine the madness of the Bugatti Tourbillon, similar tech but with 1000 more horsepower
That car was made to eat Kilometers on the Autobahn. No distance is far enough in that thing. Nice deep growl sound for the exhaust ❤
Holy F...this thing is fast...and it looks amazing in my opinion. I prefer the AMG GT Coupé, but they are nearly the same, I think.,
This thing is a beast because the hybrid system
6:20 we've got a little screen here bruh the screen is bigger than the steering wheel😂😂
11:14-16:38 that fuel range went a lil bit down 😄
just "a little"

that is one mental beast

Looks beautiful, goes hard in a straight line. Wish I could use it here in Australia.
what a fast machine!
Looking perkele very nice!
You can actually see the car going up on the front and lowering down at the rear from this pure power at 9:42
The best E-Performance car, most convincing
This is what AMG should be, big stupidly powerful and noisy

Thank you Mercedes for not ruining this time
Crazy that this cab is quicker than the Bugatti Veyron.
Well, the Veyron is 20 years old (depending on model year) and car performance has been growing at an extremely high rate. What was once hyper car performance years ago can be found in some super cars.
If Max is as excited as this you know it's QUICK AF
Still if i could i will take the ,,old" SL65 V12 Black Series.
Best car
I Love German Engineering
NO PASION DUDE !!!! its all about the power:) and not that much.
Merc Masterpiece
Cargasm 🤤
I would still choose the old SL65 Black Series. No electric motors, just raw power.
It also sounded like a vacuum
All day everyday, you dont even need to think about it! Those were so raw, this is so filtered...
Imagine if the w206 c63 had this engine
I remember searching the internet for worlds fastest car in early 2000s and this car on the other hand is cruising at 320+ kph
Damn that tornado in tank.
👍 Very Beautiful 👍
Geez what a beauty😢😢
