Design

sls

The SLS AMG was designed to be a modern 300SL Gullwingrevival by Mark Fetherston from October 2006 to April 2007.The SLS AMG has also adapted the feature of wing doors that swing open upwards on gas struts, and must be closed manually as AMG engineers decided against the 90 pounds (41 kg) that auto-closing systems would have added to the car. In case of a roll-over, the doors can be fully detached to allow the occupants to leave the vehicle
Although there is some overlapping in price and performance, the lighter SLS AMG is considered more of a sporty track-oriented car, compared to the Mercedes-Benz SL which is a more autobahn-focused grand tourer especially with its optional V12 engine. Compared to the SLS AMG Roadster, the SL is a hardtop convertible with technological and comfort amenities, and it also has available heated and cooled seats with a massage function.The SLS AMG has also been said to be one of the cheapest cars on the market with an unusual door design.
The Gullwing version of the SLS AMG has won a number of design awards, including the 2010 red dot "best of the best" award, the iF product design award 2010 for the "Transportation Design" category, and the AUTO BILD Design Award 2010 as "Europe's most attractive car".It is also the only automobile to have won the gold Design Award of the Federal Republic of Germany.
