The SLS AMG is designed to be a modern 300SL Gullwing revival. The car has a long bonnet, the passenger compartment is close to the rear axle and the rear of the car is short. The SLS AMG will also adapt the feature of wing doors that will swing open upwards on gas struts, not in a mix of upwards and forward like the SLR. The doors must be closed manually as AMG engineers decided against auto-closing systems because the systems would have added 90 pounds (41 kg) to the car. In case of a roll-over, the doors can be fully detached to allow the occupants to leave the vehicle. The designer is Gordon Wagener whose family once had a 300SLS.
The SLS-e will use electric powertrain components. It will include 4 electric motors (one on each wheel) with combined ratings of 392 kW (525 bhp) and 880 N·m (650 lb·ft), liquid-cooled 400V lithium-ion battery rated 48 kWh and a capacity of 40 Ah. The battery will be supplied by Deutsche Accumotive GmbH & Co. KG, a joint venture between Daimler AG and Evonik Industries AG.
Standard transmission is AMG SPEEDSHIFT DCT 7-speed Getrag dual-clutch semi-automatic transmission through a lightweight carbon fiber driveshaft. Selectable driving modes include “C” (Controlled Efficiency), “S” (Sport), “S+” (Sport plus) or “M” (Manual). A true manual transmission is not available. Optional on the SLS AMG are carbon-ceramic disc brakes. These brakes provide increased stopping power with a 40% weight reduction compared to the standard brake system.
The exterior aluminum body is supplied by Magna International. Next to the CL65 AMG 40th Anniversary Edition, this is the only road going Mercedes with the ALUBEAM paint available; at an extra cost of almost €12 000 in Germany. Other colors include both metallic as matte colors, such as Designo Magno Kashmir, the matte paint known from the SL63 AMG IWC edition. The SLS AMG has a rear wing which will pop up at high speeds for stability and handling, and when braking.
