All New 2022 Mercedes-AMG SL63 - Excellent Convertible Roadster!

There's still an SL badge on the back, but Mercedes-Benz has managed to change just about everything else on the new generation of its opulent roadster. The previous SL seated just two, but the new one comes with a 2+2 layout. Where before there was only rear-wheel drive, both new trims are all-wheel drive. Finally, the hardtop roof has been ditched in favor of a lighter fabric roof. These changes have fundamentally altered the character of the SL, but does that mean it's change for the sake of change, or is it actually a superior drop-top? Let's find out.

Two AMG models, an SL55 and an SL63, will be offered at launch. In both cases, Mercedes-AMG's brutish 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 is used, and it's paired with a nine-speed MCT transmission. The SL55 generates 469 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque, which is enough for a 0-60 mph time of 3.8 seconds. The SL63's 577 hp and 590 lb-ft are good for a 3.5-second blast. These times are rapid but not mind-blowing in an era of stupendously quick electric cars. Then again, the roar from that V8 will make the new SL more engaging than any EV. Mercedes says that a performance hybrid model is on the way too, but no details have yet been shared about this model.

Mercedes has worked hard to ensure that the latest SL is a sportier, sharper machine to pilot. Rear-axle steering is standard and improves agility, while the SL63 gets the standard AMG Active Ride Control suspension with hydraulic roll stabilization. The SL63 also gets a front axle lift system as standard, a first for an SL, which can raise the front of the car when traversing steep driveways.

Of course, the implementation of the 4MATIC+ all-wheel-drive system is big news too. This will allow the powerful roadster to put its power down more effectively than ever before.
