New S-class- most economic Mercedes-Benz!

The Mercedes-Benz will bring to Frankfurt the most economic S-class in the history which is called S 500 Plug-in Hybrid. Yes, for now this car only concept but what – the huge car spends for each 100 km of a way only 3,2 l of gasoline! Ponder only – the expense of a huge S-class makes only 3,2 l Certainly, this car is put in action not by a standard internal combustion engine. As it is possible to understand from the name, before us a hybrid, and with modern litievo-ionic batteries which can be recharged from the usual electric socket connection. Thanks to it the car is capable to pass in a city about 30 km, using exclusively the electric power (capacity of the electromotor makes 60 h.p.). When accumulators will be discharged, action will be entered by petrol motor V6 in volume of 3,5 l.



Thus, despite the ridiculous expense in 3,2 l, S 500 Plug-in Hybrid possesses rather decent dynamics. The maximum speed of the car is limited at level of 250 km/h, and time of speedup from 0 to 100 km/h occupies all 5,5 sec! Here that the electromotor with its huge twisting moment means!

The given power unit begins to give out 571 h.p. at 6700 rpm, and its twisting moment will make 600 Nm at 4750 "turns". Thanks to an easy aluminium body, the car lump will make only 1620 km that will allow 2-seater SLS AMG Gullwing to be dispersed from 0 to 100 km/h only for 3,8 sec (the maximum speed – 315 km/h) Batch production SLS AMG Gullwing should begin in the end of next year, and the car price will make about 177 000 euros.

Mercedes SLR Stirling Moss

British legend's name given to final editions of the SLR supercar. Mercedes-Benz has revealed details of an exclusive SLR inspired by British motor racing legend, Stirling Moss. Only 75 will be made, each costing €750,000 (£710,810).

The SLR Stirling Moss is a roofless and windowless version of the Mercedes SLR McLaren Roadster, featuring a supercharged, 5,439cc V8 engine developing 650bhp. It accelerates from 0-62mph in less than 3.5 seconds and has a top speed of 217mph.


Moss won many racers for Mercedes in its SLR racers during the 1950s and this tribute to his sublime skills recalls the sleek 300 SLR in which he and Denis Jenkinson famously won the 1955 Mille Miglia road race in Italy during a record-breaking drive from Brescia to Rome and back. The pair’s average speed was almost 98mph.

Like the series production SLR, the bodywork is made from carbon-fibre, with the bonnet continuing into the passenger compartment. Minuscule wind deflectors protect the two occupants from the airflow, while air scoops integrated into the bodywork behind the seats serve as roll-over bars. The SLR Stirling Moss also has a larger rear diffuser than that fitted to the SLR Coupe and Roadster.

There’s also an airbrake to aid deceleration from high speeds, which deploys during heavy braking from speeds above 75mph.

The minimalist interior features carbon-fibre, aluminium-alloy and fine leather, with an aluminium-alloy plate engraved with Moss’s signature situated by the gearlever.

Production of the SLR Stirling Moss will begin in June 2009, when the standard SLR ceases production, and the run of 75 examples is expected to be completed by next December.
