The iconic Mercedes-Benz SL-Class gets a refresh for 2017. Edmunds.com reviews the updated roadster and reports it maintains its core strengths - comfortable ride quality, capable handling, superb engines, classy interior, and ample standard and available features - while getting a more contemporary Mercedes-Benz look, extra power under the hood and a silky new nine-speed transmission.
Powering the 2017 Mercedes-Benz SL450 is a turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 that produces 362 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque. A nine-speed automatic transmission with manual shift control sends power to the rear wheels. The SL550 pairs the nine-speed automatic with a turbocharged 4.7-liter V8 that's good for 449 hp (20 more than last year) and 516 lb-ft of torque. It can sprint to 60 mph in an estimated 4.3 seconds.
