Mercedes-Benz
Vision SLR

The open version
of the futuristic high-performance SLR sports car celebrates its debut at
the International Car Show in Frankfurt. Its name: the Vision SLR roadster.


Such traditional
1950's elements as the elongated bonnet and the characteristic gull-wing doors
harmonise with the modern design of today's Formula 1 Silver Arrow.


Mercedes-Benz
is premiering systems and components such as the electronically controlled
Sensortronic Brake System, headlamps with cornering function and ceramic brake
discs. A 557 hp V8 engine makes for brisk acceleration, providing a top speed
of 320 kph for the Vision SLR roadster.
