Time can drag by ever so slowly, for example when you are waiting for something much longed - for, whereas in moments of happiness it feels as if it literally flies by. Seen from this perspective, the SLK is something of a time machine. A roadster and at the same time a full - blooded coupé, created so you can experience each moment as intensely as possible. Come along for a little time travel and become part of this exciting car’s success story. The SLK 6 Agility | Exterior design From 0 to absolute fascination in 0.1 seconds flat Exterior design First impressions count, and are seldom reconsidered. One glance is all it takes for the brain to make a split-second, instinctive decision. Now, if it’s fascination at first sight the moment you see the SLK, this could be due to its classic roadster proportions with short overhangs and a dynamically styled front section, together with the sporty looks of the light - alloy wheels. Whatever the reason, one thing is certain: a lot has been said and written about designing cars. And a lot of verbose expositions have been made about this or that formal idiom, or these or those flowing lines. But in all honesty – one look at the SLK says it all. 10 Agility | Exterior design As time goes by, fascination turns into a lasting captivation Exterior design Its very design makes you want to set it in motion. With its beguiling looks, the SLK forms a thoroughly impressive package from tip to toe. It goes without saying, of course, that the tail end of the SLK is every bit as eye-catching as its striking front, courtesy of distinctive tailpipes, the bumper with a hint of a diffuser at the bottom, as well as the dark-tinted tail lights. Consequently, the instant you set eyes on the SLK, you will feel an urge ... to get behind the wheel. Agility | Driving dynamics 15 Discover the joy of the perpetual perfect moment Agility You are enjoying the exhilarating acceleration and the incomparable sensation of open - top motoring : there are moments when absolutely everything seems perfect. Those are precisely the occasions for which we built the SLK. Then, time somehow seems to go faster, so that even driving great distances becomes an enthralling experience because of its intensity. Effortlessly superior agility, dynamism you can feel, plus remarkably precise handling with the optional Direct - Steer system all allow you to experience sportiness in an entirely new way aboard this timelessly beautiful roadster. Every single day, should you wish. Agility | Vario - roof Infinite headroom, instantly ! With the vario - roof, which made its first ever appearance on an SLK. Pressing a button is all it takes for the vario - roof to disappear into the boot in 22 seconds. In the closed position, you will benefit from the pleasant noise insulation it provides, the reassuring feeling of having a solid roof over your head, and 300 litres of luggage capacity. With the roof open, there is even room for 208 litres, thanks to the vario - roof’s elaborate folding technology. In order to prevent irritating airflow turbulence in the neck region from diluting the roadster sensation when driving with the roof down, you have a choice of two optional draught - stop systems. And if you are looking to drive with the roof open even when the warm summer days are a distant memory, you will be thrilled with the AIRSCARF neck - level heating system developed by Mercedes - Benz. Here, air flowing out of the head restraint provides warmth in the head and neck region, enabling you to enjoy the roadster season all year long, if you so desire. 17 18 BlueEFFICIENCY - fast forward to tomorrow We do not pay lip service to protection of the environment. It’s a matter close to our hearts. By the end of 2010, we will be able to offer you 85 models with BlueEFFICIENCY technologies, all of which place far less of a burden on the environment. Our BlueEFFICIENCY concept comprises innovations for efficient mobility as well as optimised processes all the way along the value chain. The BlueEFFICIENCY measures – the Mercedes - Benz efficiency package. The BlueEFFICIENCY measures are comprehensive vehicle optimisations designed to ease the burden on the environment. Each model combines the most efficient engine with optimum aerodynamic and energy - management measures, including the ECO start / stop function, which is being made available for an increasing number of models. Our new V6 and V8 petrol engines in the S - Class and CL-Class, for example, reduce fuel consumption by up to 20% yet have a much higher power output. BlueTEC – the clean diesel. A modular emission - control system makes BlueTEC an exceptionally clean diesel technology. As well as removing 95% of the particulate, it also reduces nitrogen oxides by up to 90%. All that remains is water and harmless nitrogen. HYBRID – the intelligent combination of petrol and electric drive. During braking, the electric motor supplies the battery with the recuperated kinetic energy. This energy is then available when needed. What’s more, the ECU shuts off the petrol engine when the speed falls below 15 km/h. In this way, a HYBRID can reduce fuel consumption by up to 20%. BlueTEC HYBRID – clean diesel combined with electric drive. From 2011, BlueTEC HYBRID will marry the benefits of the HYBRID with those of BlueTEC : during braking, the kinetic energy is converted into electrical energy, which can be re - used when required. At the same time, the BlueTEC technology cleans the exhaust gases and removes many of the pollutants. All of which makes the economical diesel powerplant even more efficient and clean. The BlueEFFICIENCY measures bring about a substantial reduction in fuel consumption and CO2 emissions Agility | BlueEFFICIENCY Innovative drive systems that break new ground: E - CELL and F - CELL. We have developed two locally emission - free drive systems that will be produced on a small scale and delivered to customers around the world starting in 2010. The B - Class F - CELL uses hydrogen to produce power for the electric motor, while the A - Class E - CELL draws its energy from a battery alone. HYBRID technology reduces fuel consumption by up to 20% But that is not all : under the banner “Design for Environment”, we also look at a vehicle’s entire lifecycle and work hard to preserve the environment from the planning stage right through to recycling. In addition, we are heavily involved in the development of alternative fuels and carry out research in the field of bionics. Further information about our comprehensive measures can be found at : www.mercedes - benz.com / blueefficiency The B-Class F-CELL, with its locally emission-free electric drive system, receives its energy from a fuel cell 19 20 Agility | Petrol engines High time for a most powerful argument The SLK 350 sports engine More than enough power for getting away from it all. The SLK offers you the widest choice of engine outputs in its class. The engines all have one thing in common: they turn every drive in your SLK into a most moving experience, and, thanks to the vehicle’s generously-sized 70-litre fuel tank and the resulting range, you can revel in it at great length. You might opt for the spirited SLK 350 sports engine, for instance. This 6 - cylinder unit just loves to accelerate the car, with a formidable 224 kW at its disposal, and truly makes its mark with a high-revving design that permits engine speeds of up to 7200 rpm. What’s more, it delivers a thrilling sound that truly gets under your skin over the entire rev band, as well as power galore for tasting pure driving bliss. One final thing worth mentioning is that, despite the tremendous power output, our engineers have actually succeeded in cutting both the engine’s fuel consumption and its pollutant emissions.

The SLK 300 promises an even sportier drive, mustering up as it does 170 kW from its displacement of 2996 cc. And thanks to its uniform power delivery and impressive refinement, the SLK 300 succeeds in fusing motoring comfort with motoring pleasure. SLK 200 KOMPRESSOR To continue as the leaders of tomorrow, it is vital to think in terms of sustainability today. That’s why we have significantly reduced the CO2 emissions and fuel consumption of the engines detailed here, in spite of their impressive output figures. Please refer to page 68 for more information on fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.

And if you move fast, you must be able to shift fast, too. That’s why the power of the various engines is transferred by transmissions which are precisely attuned to the temperament of each model. You can choose between the standard 6 - speed manual transmission and an optional 5 - speed automatic transmission for the SLK 200 KOMPRESSOR. For those who prefer one of the 6 - cylinder engines, 7G - TRONIC, the 7 - speed automatic transmission, is available as an option. In the SLK 55 AMG, this transmission is standard. The optional 7G - TRONIC Sport with steering - wheel gearshift paddles ensures even swifter gearshifts. These steering - wheel gearshift paddles can be ordered as optional equipment for all automatic transmissions, and are included as standard on the SLK 55 AMG. With its seven speeds, the 7G - TRONIC automatic transmission adapts marvellously to every driving situation. The seven ratios ensure that the jumps in rev speed from one gear to the next are small, resulting in smoother gearshifts and a lower average rev speed level. In addition, it offers the possibility of multiple downshifts for extra - fast acceleration at any time Safety | Active safety 27 When your safety is at stake, the SLK takes action in an instant Active safety To prevent accidents from happening in the first place, a high level of active safety is built - in for undiluted driving pleasure. Your SLK is, of course, equipped with ESP and BAS as standard. If the vehicle is at risk of entering a skid, ESP  helps to defuse the situation through targeted interventions in the braking and engine management systems. Meanwhile, the electronic Brake Assist system detects emergency braking from the speed with which you press the brake pedal, whereupon it instantly builds up maximum braking power. 28 Safety | Passive safety Years of research shows its worth in a split second Passive safety What might be awaiting you around the next bend ? There may indeed be questions for which no safety system yet has the answer, but in practically all other situations you can rely on the SLK’s intelligent safety concept. Should the worst come to the worst, you will be protected by belt tensioners as well as adaptive driver’s and passenger’s airbags. The SLK is equipped with head / thorax sidebags too. These are located in the outside edges of the seat backrests, and together with the roll - over sensor, they afford the best possible occupant protection in the event of a lateral collision or of the vehicle overturning. All these systems have been integrated in an extremely torsionally - rigid passenger safety cell which, in combination with the roll - over bars built into the vehicle body, ensures you always keep on the safe side in spite of all the vehicle’s openness. Added to this is the fact that the robust steel construction of the vario - roof when closed offers even greater safety. 30 Comfort | Interior design Ergonomics can either be explained at length, or felt at once Interior design If you want to have fun, you have no time to waste. That’s why it is good that not only are all the controls and displays crafted with the highest The 3 - spoke sports steering wheel trimmed in nappa leather features practical multifunction buttons as standard workmanship, but are also placed just where you would intuitively expect them to be. Because that is the only way to have the reassuring feeling of being in direct control of the vehicle : a control so powerful and intense that it makes you feel at one with the vehicle’s technology. The sports steering wheel trimmed in supple nappa leather with standard - fit multifunction buttons feels good in your hands, while the interior can be given a particularly refined air by opting for the exclusive wood trims in a choice of light burr walnut and black ash. Positioned directly in your field of vision to keep you constantly informed of all key data is the instrument cluster, which stands out for its understated good looks with red needles, elegant dial bezels in a 3D look, plus tubes with chrome surrounds. 32 Comfort | Interior design Open for spontaneous decisions Interior design The interior of the SLK is the perfect place for enjoying yourself. Awaiting you here is a stylish symbiosis of out - and - out sportiness on the one hand and, on the other, a degree of space and comfort which is otherwise virtually unheard of in this segment. The result is a clear enhancement of motoring pleasure. The optional leather appointments allow you to give your SLK an even more exclusive look: you can choose from leather in black, alpaca grey, orient beige or gullwing red. And anyone looking for an even greater air of refinement can opt for the luxurious nappa leather appointments : here, the seats are upholstered in finest nappa leather in either black or natural beige, and even the centre armrest is trimmed in soft black nappa leather, complete with elegant topstitching. Whatever you decide on, you can be sure of exceptional build and material quality. The SLK is, after all, one thing above all else : a Mercedes. Comfort | Interior design 35 Sport has seldom been so relaxing Driving comfort This is just how comfortable sporty motoring can be. You will start to appreciate the excellent lateral support of the dynamically contoured seats with their magnesium frame on your very first outing. Then there is the spontaneous, agile handling of the optional Direct - Steer system with variable servo assistance, which is unrivalled in this segment and positively invites you to power through bends in the road. Thanks to the outstanding suspension tuning, even longer journeys are nothing less than an absolute delight. You also have the option of the innovative AIRSCARF neck-level heating system: by delivering pleasantly warm air from the head restraints it allows you to extend the cabriolet season at the touch of a button. And to maintain a refreshing climate when the roof is up, too, there is either the air conditioning system that comes as standard in the SLK 300, SLK 350 and SLK 55 AMG, or the optional THERMOTRONIC luxury automatic climate control featuring automatic regulation of the air distribution, plus solar and air quality sensors. The innovative AIRSCARF neck - level heating (optional) can keep your head and neck snug and warm COMAND APS 37 If you wish, your SLK can listen to your every word Ease of operation At last ! A car that understands you. This is because you have the option of the sophisticated COMAND APS multimedia system. The system’s intuitive user guidance makes it more user friendly than ever, despite its vast array of functions. The COMAND APS features a fast hard - disc navigation system including a 3D display, a MUSIC REGISTER for storing audio files, plus a high - resolution 16.5 - cm colour display, to name but a few of the highlights. The entire system can be operated from an ergonomically positioned control pad. What’s more, the SLK can also be ordered with the voice - operated control system LINGUATRONIC for operating the audio, telephone and navigation systems. The system is already contained within the COMAND APS and can also be added to the optional Audio 50 APS, if you wish. The multifunction buttons allow you to control many of the COMAND APS system’s functions directly from the steering wheel 38 AMG | SLK 55 AMG AMG. Three letters – one clear statement The SLK 55 AMG You can see it immediately just from the outside: this is as SLK as it gets. Because the SLK 55 AMG interprets the sporty, elegant look of the classic roadster more assertively and uncompromisingly than ever. And it lives up to this exterior promise in every way by delivering true sports car performance. Under the bonnet, an AMG V8 engine with a displacement of 5.5 litres generates a breathtaking 265 kW and a maximum torque of 510 Nm. The SLK 55 AMG sprints from 0 to 100 km / h in 4.9 seconds. More than sufficient to press you with pleasant firmness back into the exclusive AMG nappa leather sports seats. The SLK 55 AMG is equipped as standard with the innovative AMG SPEEDSHIFT 7G - TRONIC, which permits extra - swift gear - shifting. The transmission can also be controlled by means of the steering - wheel gearshift paddles on the AMG sports steering wheel trimmed in nappa leather. Further highlights of the extensive high-performance specification of the SLK 55 AMG are the AMG sports suspension and the AMG multi - spoke light - alloy wheels in a high - sheen, titanium - grey - painted finish that are exclusive to this model. AMG | AMG Performance Studio If the only sports that count for you are high - performance sports The AMG Performance Studio For even more dynamic driving, there are exclusive optional extras available for the SLK 55 AMG from the AMG Performance Studio. Here, for instance, you can opt for the multi - piece twin - spoke AMG light - alloy wheels, an AMG performance suspension, as well as AMG carbon - fibre trim elements and the AMG performance steering wheel trimmed in nappa leather, with its flattened lower section and smaller rim diameter. For ultimate motoring pleasure there is the highly attractive AMG Performance package, which comprises an AMG high - performance compound brake system in addition to the features mentioned above. 41 42 AMG | AMG optional extras Where would an athlete be without the right outfit ? The optional AMG bodystyling and AMG light - alloy wheels If you don’t want to go for the SLK 55 AMG right away, you still have the option of underlining the SLK’s sportiness to striking effect with AMG bodystyling. This package, created by Mercedes - AMG and consisting of dynamic - looking AMG aprons at the front and rear as well as muscular side skirts, lends the SLK a particularly athletic look. In addition, the AMG spoiler lip neatly rounds off the exterior design, at the same time enhancing downforce and thus handling stability. Optionally, all SLK models can be fitted with high - sheen twin - spoke AMG light - alloy wheels, shod with 225 / 40 R 18 tyres at the front and 245 / 35 R 18 at the rear. My SLK 46 Equipment | Sports package The most beautiful combination of sports and aesthetics The SLK with the Sports package Sportiness lies in the nature of the SLK. And the optional SLK Sports package allows you to elicit this temperament to stunning effect. The extensive package includes headlamp linings in a matt grey finish, as well as 5 - twin - spoke light-alloy wheels in titanium silver, which lend yet greater emphasis to the car’s dynamic appearance. The striking perforated brake discs at the front provide extra reserves of stopping power, while the AMG spoiler lip on the tail generates even greater downforce at the rear axle. A sports suspension is also fitted as standard, and steering - wheel gearshift paddles are also included for models with the optional automatic transmission. Yet the Sports package can be admired equally as well from the interior. Here you will find a black roof liner, red seat belts ( optionally available in black), plus red topstitching on the seats, armrest, steering wheel and gearshift lever. Attractive carbon - look trim and floor mats with red edging round off the interior concept of the Sports package in style. 48 Cruise control makes for more relaxed motoring and can also reduce fuel consumption The roll -

The combination of the seat cushion spring set - up, which is precisely tuned to the vehicle, and the selection of the appropriate degree of cushion density results in exceptional springing and damping characteristics. To provide the perfect finishing touch, the seats are then upholstered in your own personal choice of fabric or leather.
