2011 Mercedes-Benz SL550 Night Limited Edition


The Mercedes-Benz SL550 Night Edition, the designo Magno Night black paint to highlight the dramatic lines of the SL body. Mercedes-Benz SL550 Night Edition is also identified two colors of its 19-inch AMG light-alloy wheels with five spokes, silver front brake calipers with “Mercedes-Benz” script, dark headlights and taillights. Mercedes-Benz SL550 Night Edition is
equipped with 13.8-inch ventilated front and solid 12.6-inch rear discs. Matched to power and speed capability, SL63 AMG will be even larger 14.2-inch front vented rotors and 13.0 inch rear vented discs, while the SL65 AMG boasts vented discs that are another 1.2 inches in diameter.

The 2011 Mercedes-Benz SL coupe/roadster line features the limited-edition Mercedes-Benz SL550 Night Edition, which is painted in matte-finish designo Magno Night black with a black premium leather interior. Only 100 of this exclusive model are available in U.S. showrooms.


Specially developed for the Mercedes-Benz SL550 Night Edition, the designo Magno Night black paint highlights the dramatic lines of the SL body. The Night Edition is also identified by the two-tone finish of its 19-inch AMG five-spoke light-alloy wheels, as well as silver front brake calipers with "Mercedes-Benz" script and darkened headlights and tail lights.

A striking contrast of dark black premium leather and bright chrome trim fills the interior, with the sports steering wheel, shift lever and roof lining trimmed in black. Newly-designed seats have eye-catching arrow-type stitching and contrasting silver accents, including the vents of the AIRSCARF® system, which bathes occupants' neck area with warm air in cooler weather when the convertible top is down.


All Mercedes-Benz SL roadsters are available with AIRSCARF, an innovative feature that can extend the open-air driving season into the cooler months. Another first from Mercedes-Benz, AIRSCARF is an extra heating system built into the driver and passenger seats.

The AIRSCARF neck-level heating system blows warm air from the head restraints of the driver and passenger seats, allowing occupants to cruise comfortably with the retractable hardtop open in cooler temperatures. Testing revealed that warming just a relatively small area around the neck dramatically improves comfort in cooler weather.


Standard on the SL65 AMG model (and optional on the SL550 and SL63 AMG), the AIRSCARF heating system even compensates for changes in air temperature and vehicle speed. AIRSCARF uses a heating element made of barium titanate, which heats up in a matter of seconds when electrical current is applied.

Standard COMAND system includes a color display screen 6.5-inch, hard drive-based GPS navigation, in-dash six-disc CD / DVD and four-gigabyte Music Register, which contains about 1000 track MP3. This year, the SL audio system adds HD Radio, navigation system and available SIRIUS traffic information in real time. music titles can be displayed on the COMAND screen in the center console and a small screen on the dashboard, and you can select with the buttons on the multifunction steering wheel. Interface media practice, it is easy to connect an iPod, USB memory, memory card and other devices.


Widely acclaimed as one of the world's safest convertibles, the SL provides sports car performance with all the built-in safety that's expected from Mercedes-Benz. Since an open car can leave its occupants vulnerable in a rollover, Mercedes engineers met the challenge in the SL with the world's first automatic roll bar. If sensors detect an impending rollover, the padded, leather-covered bar pops up, locking in place in a third of a second. It can also be raised or lowered by a console switch.

Shoulder belts are integrated directly into the seats for greater occupant protection, especially in rollovers. The Mercedes SL was also the first car with side airbags, which are part of a Supplemental Restraint System (a phrase first coined by Mercedes-Benz) that includes dual front airbags and emergency tensioning retractors that tighten the seat belts in a collision.

Excellent stopping power for the SL is provided by large, four-wheel disc brakes enhanced with four-channel ABS anti-lock control. The SL550 is equipped with vented 13.8-inch front and solid 12.6-inch rear discs. Matched to its power and speed capability, The SL63 AMG comes with even larger 14.2-inch vented rotors up front and 13.0-inch vented rotors at the rear, while the SL65 AMG boasts vented discs that are another 1.2 inches in diameter.

The SL chassis uses a double-control-arm front suspension and the patented Mercedes-Benz five-link rear suspension. All SL models come with Active Body Control (ABC), the Mercedes-Benz active suspension. Virtually eliminating body roll in cornering, squat under acceleration and dive during braking, ABC active suspension solves the usual tradeoff between ride comfort and handling, so SL roadsters offer excellent comfort and league-leading handling.

On AMG models, special ABC struts with firmer damping and reworked systems such as ABS anti-lock brakes, Brake Assist, traction control and ESP stability control complement the enhanced AMG chassis.

2011 Mercedes-Benz Vito More Economical And Environment


The commercial vehicles lineup of Mercedes-Benz gets updated with the release of the new Vito, which follows the introduction of the 2011 Viano. The most obvious change on the new Vito’s exterior is the redesigned set of headlights, which lends a white collar look to the commercial vehicle.


The Vito also gets fitted with new front and rear bumpers. The most significant changes are found in the technology aspect. The van is made much more efficient as it now has an engine range that complies with the Euro VI emission rules.


Mercedes-Benz has undertaken a comprehensive revamp of the Vito van, which is now yet more economical and kinder on the environment, yet more practical and more dynamic. New engines and new transmissions reduce emissions and fuel consumption by up to 15 percent while enhancing performance. The fully reconfigured chassis is tailored to the transportation of goods or passengers, according to the model concerned. The driver's workplace in all models and the passenger compartment of the Mercedes-Benz Vito crewbus are more attractively appointed than ever. The new Mercedes Vito is readily recognisable by its new "face", combining the style of the current passenger cars from Mercedes-Benz with the robustness of a commercial vehicle.

The van’s fuel consumption is improved by 15%; it also has less CO2 emissions. The engines being offered include four and six cylinder unit with an output from between 95 and 258 hp. All engines are mated to a six speed gearbox.


The new Vito uses a retuned chassis and suspension, increasing its payload. Various suspension configurations are offered for the high-payload panel van and the comfort-orientated crewbus model. The model offers more comfort to its driver and passengers as its interior has more ergonomic controls, a new color mix and improved soundproofing.

The scope of choice further includes different weight variants, door combinations and the Mercedes-Benz Vito long with high roof. The versatile Mercedes-Benz Vito is available as a panel van, a crewbus with various seating configurations and the Mixto, a combination of panel van and crewbus. All three basic variants come in three different lengths. Models tailored to specific industries and equipment packages for the most diverse areas of use round off the broad spectrum covered by the multi-faceted Mercedes-Benz Vito.


All variants benefit from the full everyday practicality of the Mercedes-Benz Vito. With an overall height of just 1.90 m, every rear-wheel-drive Vito with a standard roof fits easily into standard garages, multi-storey car parks, underground car parks and car washes. The inherent advantages of the rear-wheel-drive concept ensure impressive agility even for the long Vito model variants.

The clear layout of the instrument panel and the clearly legible instruments have been retained - there are some things which simply defy improvement. The shift lever features new contours, however. Depending on the equipment variant, the knob now sports a high-gloss badge with chrome surround. In the upper control panel on the centre console, pushbuttons have replaced the previous rocker switches to facilitate intuitive operation while at the same time providing a more attractive appearance. The seat heating is now more finely adjustable, offering three levels as opposed to the previous two. The overhead control unit has been upgraded with two reading lamps in certain equipment variants. In the Mercedes Vito crewbus equipped with additional heat exchanger or rear air conditioning, corresponding new controls are also incorporated together with a display.


Four-cylinder CDI: robust, economical, clean, powerful and smooth-running

At the core of the new generation of engines is the four-cylinder in-line unit which has the internal code OM 651. It is available in three power variants for the Mercedes-Benz Vito:

Vito 110 CDI (figures differ according to variant)
Power output: 70 kW (95 hp) at 3800 rpm
Max torque: 250 Nm at 1200-2400 rpm
Fuel consumption in acc. with NEDC: 7.7 l/100 km (BlueEFFICIENCY: 7.4 l/100 km)
CO2 emissions: 203 g/km (BlueEFFICIENCY: 195 g/km)
Top speed: 158 km/h
Acceleration
0-100 km/h: 18.1 s
60-100 km/h in fifth gear: 14.0 s
80-120 km/h in sixth gear: 20.5 s
Vito 113 CDI (figures differ according to variant)
Power output: 100 kW (136 hp) at 3800 rpm
Max torque: 310 Nm at 1400-2600 rpm
Fuel consumption in acc. with NEDC: 7.4 l/100 km (BlueEFFICIENCY: 6.9 l/100 km)
CO2 emissions: 195 g/km (BlueEFFICIENCY: 182 g/km)
Top speed: 176 km/h
Acceleration
0-100 km/h: 13.4 s
60-100 km/h in fifth gear: 12.5 s
80-120 km/h in sixth gear: 18.2 s
Vito 116 CDI (figures differ according to variant)
Power output: 120 kW (163 hp) at 3800 rpm
Max torque: 360 Nm at 1600-2400 rpm
Fuel consumption in acc. with NEDC: 7.4 l/100 km (BlueEFFICIENCY: 6.9 l/100 km)
CO2 emissions: 195 g/km (BlueEFFICIENCY: 182 g/km)
Top speed: 191 km/h
Acceleration
0-100 km/h: 11.5 s
60-100 km/h in fifth gear: 10.0 s
80-120 km/h in sixth gear: 14.6 s

This represents an overall rise in power output and torque in comparison to the predecessor models, with major increases in some instances. At the same time, fuel consumption and CO2 emissions have been reduced substantially - by up to 15 percent, depending on the engine variant. Apart from attaining surprisingly good values in absolute terms for its size and weight, the Mercedes-Benz Vito clearly leads its class in terms of fuel economy and CO2 emissions.

Drivers of vans from Mercedes-Benz are not required to compromise on comfort. Common rail injection, the low-vibration forged crankshaft running on five bearings and the rear camshaft drive provide the foundation for the engine's surprisingly smooth running. All four-cylinder engines also benefit from Lanchester balancing, with two counter-rotating shafts running under the crankcase, driven by spur gears. Mercedes-Benz is the only manufacturer in this vehicle class to deploy balancer shafts in all four-cylinder engines of its vans - commercial vehicles from Mercedes-Benz embody the same pioneering quality for which the brand's passenger cars are renowned.


Long maintenance intervals also contribute to the Vito's sustainability and economy. The ASSYST service computer which comes as standard calculates oil-change intervals on a flexible basis according to the actual use of the vehicle. The average interval across all engines stands at 30,000 km or two years. Higher mileages are also possible between oil changes, depending on the intensity of use and the individual driving style.

The Vito 4x4 with permanent all-wheel drive and variable power distribution by means of the 4ETS traction system also benefits from numerous innovations. A new 3-point bearing for the front-axle transmission and an increased oil volume reduce vibration and wear on the all-wheel drive. Helical gearing for the differential provides for smoother running. As previously, the Mercedes-Benz Vito 4x4 is available exclusively in conjunction with the two higher power variants of the four-cylinder engine and automatic transmission (Vito 113 CDI/116 CDI 4x4). The Mercedes-Benz Vito 4x4 now also complies with the Euro 5/III emissions standard.

    2012 Mercedez - Benz S - Class, New Generation


    When Mercedes F700 concept is held in odd years ago at the Frankfurt Motor Show, many speculate that he was destined to be futile in automotive styling. Not so according to people close to the project. A recent report claiming both the technology and car design will eventually make its way to the next generation S-Class due in 2012.


    Drip-on body panels and lights placeholder element in the prototype clearly many details that will determine the next S-class, but there are a lot of camouflage does not hide. Profiles and the proportion remained similar to the current car, but we hope to have the space or more inches between the axles on both short and long wheelbase models. LWB versions appear higher than the S-class today, and a curved roof line appears to relax in the rear window of a touch more than that today, following S. stretched cladding, body side will flow contour fenders and sweeping treatment currents and E-Class 2011 CLS-class period. Unlike the model, however, eschews the grand-looking sedan chop to high greenhouse ceiling and large windows that remind us a lot of S-class side-slab in the 1990s. Well, and the Popemobile.

    Now, while the camouflage also preempts our ability to accurately predict the end of the styling front, we think this is the S-class will make a major leap in that area than its predecessor slowly evolved. Hope, such as fashion lately, lots of LED lights which are given in some "brand-defining" pattern. (Do not be fooled by the LED on the prototype of this, too, because they come from a S-class now). We thought the front end can take a lot of inspiration from the radical concept of the 2007 F700. The final prediction of our designs: A clamshell-style front hood (so to align with other models of Mercedes Benz-most) and, less elegant and bustle-backed excess baggage.

    Like the current model, the new car will come for both the short and long wheelbase versions and will be supported by a variety of V6, V8 and V12 powerplants - both naturally aspirated and turbocharged. However, new to the lineup will be the introduction of four-cylinder model is adjusted. Mercedes F700 actually used for previewing new powertrain, called DiesOtto, longer provide instructions for what to expect in the next S-Class.

    Mercedes F700 is also used for active preview of the new PRE-SCAN suspension, a system that scours the road ahead using two lasers and automatically adjusts the suspension accordingly. Another feature is the new Servo-HMI (Human Machine Interface), which is equipped with a virtual operating assistant that the driver can converse with. Expecting to see a similar system in the S-Class and toned down version of a new future in other models.

    Interior Design and Special Features
    Just pull the door handle to make you feel as if you've cracked open the vault impenetrable. C-Class interior is beautiful, although the atmosphere of hard and angular design to propose less luxurious feel to a few. Choosing to cut timber or two-tone color scheme at least introduce a little warmth. Control is quite simple for this class of car, and the interface is optional Mercedes' electronic orders quite easy to use. New iPod interface is particularly user-friendly.

    Other Cars to Consider
    Buyers looking for an aggressive sport sedan may be better served with a German rival, the C-Class' main BMW 3-Seriesini. Infiniti G37, nearly 3-Series' together on the track, is an excellent choice.

    The Cadillac CTS may also be interesting to see. This offers an excellent balance of sporty performance and luxury cabin, with dramatic force sufficient to satisfy those who are interested in the lines of Mercedes muscle.

    Confirms 526 HP Fully Electric Gullwing, Mercedes-Benz

    Confirms 526 HP Fully Electric Gullwing, Mercedes-Benz
    It's official. Last week the spanish automaker Mercedes-Benz has confirmed its purpose to build an electric version of the SLS AMG Supercar.

    The AWD car transfers to separate the six axles and electric motors at each wheel with a combined 392 kilowatts of power packs, the 649 lb-ft of torque, the car is a pin-drop 526 hp.

    The Tesla is, of course. it is hot and electric. But the Gullwing is a classic, it is iconic. For me, this definition of the fortress of electric vehicles are required on American culture.

    This will be the push-automatic zero-emission of 0 to 62 km / h in 4 seconds! This is when the engines walking. Are you still Sabbe? i am.

    Electronic controllers will assure dynamically optimized power transmission by means of torque vectoring. That means the wheel with the most traction gets the most juice.

    The motors will be fueled by a 400-volt liquid cooled, high-voltage lithium-ion battery pack delivering 40 Ah of current. The packs will run down the center of the chassis. They can be charged via an electrical outlet and also through regenerative braking.

    Since an electric version of the car was considered during its design, no modifications will be needed to the car’s lightweight aluminum frame. In fact, the electrical version is expected to perform on par with the petro-based SLS. Well, except it will be quieter than its V-8 sibling.

    “With the SLS AMG with electric drive, we wanted to redefine the super sports car. For us, it is not just about responsibility. We attach just as much importance to excitement and classic AMG performance,” says Volker Mornhinweg, Chief Executive Officer of Mercedes.

    There was no mention of where Mercedes will be picking up these fancy EV parts but I am sure parent corporation Daimler will have some say in it. Daimler owns a big chunk of Tesla Motors. Also undisclosed is the vehicles’ range on a single charge.
