Experience 2.9-Second Acceleration in the 2025 Mercedes-AMG SL
March 13 2025,
Spring sunshine beckons with the promise of open roads and exhilarating drives. The 2025 Mercedes-AMG SL 63 S E PERFORMANCE arrives at the perfect moment, offering an unmatched roadster experience as winter recedes. This remarkable vehicle delivers breathtaking acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.9 seconds – a performance benchmark that transforms your driving experience with each press of the accelerator.
The most powerful SL ever created, this performance hybrid combines a handcrafted AMG 4.0L V8 biturbo engine with advanced electric drive technology. The result is an astonishing 805 hp system output and up to 1,047 lb-ft of torque. This exceptional power arrives precisely when you need it, making spring drives something to anticipate rather than simply enjoy.
Performance Engineering That Responds to Your Commands
The 2025 SL 63 S E PERFORMANCE leverages Formula 1-inspired technology for exceptional responsiveness. The electric motor acts directly on the rear axle, converting power immediately into forward momentum. This strategic placement ensures that whenever you demand acceleration, the system delivers without hesitation.
Your driving experience benefits from AMG Performance 4MATIC+ fully variable all-wheel drive, which adjusts power distribution based on conditions. The system transfers electric motor power to the front wheels when additional traction is needed, creating confidence across varied spring road conditions. With eight AMG DYNAMIC SELECT drive programs, you tailor the vehicle's character from efficient to intensely dynamic with a simple selection.
Advanced Suspension Technology for Superior Handling
Spring roads present unique challenges – from winter-damaged pavement to changing weather conditions. The standard AMG ACTIVE RIDE CONTROL suspension with active roll stabilization responds to these challenges with remarkable adaptability. Active hydraulic elements replace conventional mechanical anti-roll bars, compensating for body roll within fractions of a second while maintaining exceptional contact with the road surface.
The active rear-axle steering system further enhances your driving experience. At speeds below 100 km/h, the rear wheels steer in the opposite direction of the front wheels, creating nimble handling for winding roads. Above 100 km/h, the rear wheels align with the front wheels, delivering exceptional stability during highway cruising. This technology provides both agility and confidence as you rediscover favourite driving routes this spring.
Precision Stopping Power for Complete Control
The standard AMG ceramic high-performance composite brake system provides exceptional stopping capability with bronze-painted 6-piston fixed calipers at the front and 1-piston floating calipers at the rear. The carbon ceramic brake discs measure 420 x 40 millimetres at the front and 380 x 32 millimetres at the rear, delivering short braking distances and outstanding stability under extreme demands.
This advanced braking system complements the hybrid powertrain's regenerative capabilities. Four selectable recuperation levels allow you to customize energy recovery, with the highest setting enabling one-pedal driving similar to all-electric vehicles. On steep descents, this system functions like an engine brake while simultaneously feeding energy back to the battery – recovering over 100 kW of power in optimal conditions.
Intelligent Aerodynamics for Enhanced Performance
The SL 63 S E PERFORMANCE features specially tuned active aerodynamics that respond to your driving style. The optional AMG Aerodynamics Package includes an active carbon fibre profile concealed in the underbody. This patented element automatically deploys at 80 km/h, creating a Venturi effect that increases downforce and reduces front-axle lift for improved stability.
The standard retractable rear spoiler works in harmony with this system, adjusting its position based on vehicle speed, acceleration, and steering inputs. Above 80 km/h, the spoiler adapts through five different angular positions to optimize either handling stability or reduce drag as conditions demand. This intelligent approach to aerodynamics ensures that the vehicle remains planted and responsive regardless of speed.
Driver-Focused Interior with Personalized Comfort
The cockpit of the 2025 SL creates an environment focused on driving pleasure while ensuring exceptional comfort. Electrically adjustable AMG sports seats provide outstanding lateral support during dynamic driving without compromising comfort for longer journeys. For those seeking even greater performance orientation, optional AMG Performance seats feature integrated headrests, ventilation openings, and three massage programs.
The interior offers extensive personalization through a wide range of upholstery options. From single and two-tone Nappa leather to exclusive MANUFAKTUR treatments with diamond quilting, your SL reflects your personal style. The practical 2+2 seating arrangement provides surprising versatility for a performance roadster, making the vehicle suitable for more than just solo drives.
Exclusive Hybrid-Specific Technology
The MBUX infotainment system features AMG and hybrid-specific displays that connect you with the vehicle's advanced technology. High-quality graphics visualize power flow through the hybrid system, allowing you to monitor speed, power, torque, and electric drive unit temperature. This visual connection to the vehicle's systems enhances your understanding of its capabilities while providing useful information about energy management.
The hybrid system's operating strategy derives from Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula 1 technology, ensuring that maximum propulsion is always available when you accelerate aggressively. The electric power delivers immediate response, particularly when accelerating out of corners or overtaking – situations where that instant torque makes a meaningful difference in your driving experience.
