2013 SL63 AMG
2013 SL63 AMG |
Superior performance and high efficiency: the SL 63 AMG is the first time in two performance levels available: The AMG 5.5-liter V8 biturbo engine produces 395 kW (537 hp) and 800 Nm of torque to the crankshaft. In conjunction with the AMG Performance package attract 415 kW (564 hp) and 900 Newton meters - more power than all competitors in this segment. The result is a high-caliber performance, as the figures show the acceleration from zero to 100 km / h in 4.3 or 4.2 seconds.
200 km is reached after 12.9 and 12.6 seconds. The top speed is 250 km / h (electronically limited), with the AMG performance package is an increase to 300 km / h connected (electronically limited). The NEDC combined fuel consumption is 9.9 liters per 100 kilometers for the two levels - a reduction of 4.2 liters, respectively, by 30 percent over the previous model.
The eight-cylinder powerhouse with the symbol M 157 features a combination of innovative high-tech components for high performance at an exemplary low fuel consumption: In addition to the spray-guided gasoline direct injection are an all-aluminum crankcase, twin turbochargers, four valves per cylinder with variable valve timing, air-water intercooler , Generator Owner, and the ECO start-stop function is used. The weight-optimized AMG sports exhaust with two chromed twin tailpipes ensures a distinctive engine sound.
The most important facts:
A significant proportion of the low fuel consumption contributes to the intelligent lightweight construction. Similar to the SLS AMG supercar at the SL 63 AMG is a lightweight all-aluminum shell is used. Compared to the steel construction finished in the previous model, this not only leads to a significant weight saving of around 110 kilograms, but also a superiority in strength, safety and comfort. Intelligent lightweight construction also means optimized components for the particular purpose: Thus, for example on different types of aluminum-processing applications. The components are manufactured in gravity die casting (metal, re-usable mold) or vacuum-pressure cast, processed, or used as extrusions aluminum sheets with different thicknesses. The result is a high stiffness, high security and a better vibration characteristics. For the cover behind the tank, the designers sometimes use the even lighter magnesium. In the A-pillars are integrated privacy reasons high-strength steel pipes.
The powerful SL models from AMG Affalterbach among the most successful cars of all: From the SL 63 AMG with 6.3-liter naturally aspirated V8 engine 2008-2011 were roughly 5,000 copies sold. The produced from 2001 to 2007 SL 55 AMG with V8 supercharged engine found over 21,500 owners, making it the best selling AMG model so far. In the past ten years a total of over 26,500 SL models from AMG were sold with eight-cylinder engine.
