2008 Mercedes Benz SLR Roadster – F1-style Safety and Performance on the Road
The 2008 Mercedes Benz SLR Roadster is a super sports car with an open top that has many of the features Formula 1 vehicles from the McLaren-Mercedes team have nowadays, like a body made of carbon-fiber plastic, a very resistant material that provides a high degree of safety and a maximum torsional rigidity, the same as for the Coupe version. The use of carbon fiber not only provides safety, but also keeps the whole vehicle lightweight and helps to absorb energy, for amazing speed performances. This open top car has the same characteristics that are found only in hard-top sports cars. An interesting characteristic that was announced by the manufacturer is that the cabin of the open top car can allow conversation between the driver and the passenger, even at a speed of 120 mph, with the roof detracted. The fully retractable top protects from bad weather and opens semi-automatically in only 10 seconds. The 2008 Mercedes Benz SLR Roadster comes with an amazing new concept, previously known from the closed-top version of the SLR, that provides increased down force on the rear axle, due to the specially designed air brake and the diffuser that is integrated in the rear bumper. The deluxe equipment on board of the 2008 SLR Roadster includes dual zone automatic air conditioning, a high quality sound system, gear change paddles on the multifunctional steering wheel, a navigation system with integrated radio and CD/MP3 player and seats made of carbon fiber and partially leather trimmed. The 2008 Mercedes Benz SLR Roadster is powered by a 617-bhp supercharged V-8 engine and has a
5 speed transmission (automatic). The powerful engine allows you to go from 0 to 60 mph in only 3.8 seconds and
to reach a top speed of 206 mph. The fuel consumption in the city is of 12 mpg, on the highway of 16 mpg and the
combined fuel consumption for city and highway is of about 13 mpg. The supercar has two doors, a length of 183.3
inches, a width of 75.1 inches, a height of 49.3 inches and a wheelbase of 106.3 inches. With so many unique features, such as the carbon body and reinforced safety features, the 2008 Mercedes Benz SLR Roadster is aimed to compete not only against sport cars from the same category, but also against hard top supercars.
