PUR E AS THE
DRIVEN SUN
There’s not a car in the world that embodies the pure emotion of driving like a sports car. It’s a
pair of front-row seats to a curving road, to be shared under a clear blue sky. The inseparable
sensations of engine revs, breezes, sunshine and g‑forces. And a smile that comes from the soul.
The romance of the road. Is it why the car was invented?
Perhaps not in the most literal sense, but anyone with a
love for driving would give you a resounding “yes.” And
without a doubt, it’s why the sports car was invented.
When you open up a roadster, it opens you up as well.
Driving transforms from mobility to moving — something
you feel in your heart, on your face, and with your hands.
retractable hardtop that vanishes not only swiftly but
elegantly. And its performance celebrates its heritage
the only way a Mercedes -Benz knows how: By rushing
it forward. State -of-the -art technologies respond to the
times and in the moment: torque -rich turbo power, the
spirited shifting of a new 9‑speed, and the finely honed
handling of a multilink suspension in a highly rigid body.
The new Mercedes -Benz SLC comes from a place in
motoring history no other sports car can claim. Its soul
traces directly to the first checkered flag — a victory
repeated countless times with numerous world records
and championships. The taut muscle of its bodywork is
drawn not just in the wind tunnel but in something of
a time tunnel — blending classic long - hood/short -deck
proportions with highly advanced aerodynamics and a
The sports - car experience is best enjoyed directly.
And while the SLC favors involvement over insulation,
it’s polished to make every facet shine. The advanced
luxuries it offers don’t just add comfort, they heighten
the fun — helping its seats fend off the sun’s rays, or
turning a chilly evening into an ideal time for a top - down
drive. The SLC is a pure sports car whose motives are
equally pure: to be your perfect romantic getaway.

PERFORMANCE
N I N E WAY S
TO FU NDAY
For a car so singular in its mission of pure driving joy, the SLC goes about it in multiple ways.
Start by choosing from two engines and three suspensions. Then suit your mood at any moment
with five drive modes and a 9‑speed transmission — the most in its class, for even more fun.
What’s the perfect day for driving? Is it Saturday, when
you can find a winding country road and commune with
nature rather than commute to work? Is it when the
SLC’s eager, playful spirit makes a Monday feel like it’s
still Sunday? Maybe it’s the first day of Spring, when
top - down equals mood- up, as you and the sunshine get
reacquainted. Then again, it could be that cool Autumn
day when other roadsters start going into hibernation,
but your SLC begs you to stay out and play a little longer.
Truth is, the SLC is a sports car that can make any day
feel far from everyday. Its performance may be rooted
in a rich heritage, but it’s also a fast route to the future.
Beneath the hood’s wide power domes, an advanced
powerplant is eager to pour out its power from the
moment you tap into the throttle. The turbocharged
inline ‑ 4 in the SLC 300 generates all 273 lb‑ft of its peak
torque starting at just 1,300 rpm — rushing you from 0 to
60 in just 5.8 seconds.4 That’s not all it does quickly. Its
rapid-multispark ignition can fire each spark plug four
times in the span of a single combustion cycle, while the
high-pressure “piezoelectric” Direct Injection atomizes
fuel into a super- fine, instantly variable spray. The V6
biturbo engine in the Mercedes - AMG SLC 43 is deeply
infused with AMG enhancements, from higher turbo
boost and fuel-injection pressure to ultralow-friction
NANOSLIDE® cylinder walls — a patented process that
AMG developed for Formula 1® racecars. You’ll feel the
benefits even quicker than its 4.6‑ second sprint to 60.
With nine speeds, the new 9G ‑TRONIC transmission
offers a wider span of gear ratios, but narrows the steps in
between. It’s an ideal match for the robust torque output
of either SLC engine. Instead of a “sweet spot” on the
tachometer, you can savor its response across a range
of rpm — and enjoy up to 32 highway mpg5 in the SLC 300.
AMG programming quickens the SLC 43’s response even
further, especially in the paddle - shifted Manual mode.
New DYNAMIC SELECT lets you choose any of five drive
modes. One button adapts the throttle mapping, shift
points, steering, exhaust and more — from Comfort to
Sport+ to a customizable Individual program. There’s a
mode to suit every mood, and make them all more fun.
RADIANT STYLE
TAILORED FIT
Born to a long line of icons, the SLC leads the MercedesBenz sports car family into a fresh new era. In the SLC 300’s
grille, 219 hexagonal pins radiate from its central Star. With
the Sport Package or on the AMG SLC 43, each pin is tipped
in glistening chrome. Paired with athletic AMG body styling,
the “diamond block” grille catches the sun while you do the
same from the cockpit. A number of exterior details can also
be finished in Gloss Black with either model’s Night Package.
To further match your car to your style — and your driving
style, too — both models offer four choices in alloy wheels, as
well as a spectrum of paint colors in gloss and matte finishes.
Besides performance, it’s likely that nothing defines a pure
sports car like its two -seat cockpit. It’s here where the SLC
extends a tradition of classic roadsters by wrapping modern
luxury and style in time-treasured craftsmanship. The twin
sport seats are deeply bolstered and power-adjustable. Each
seat incorporates a 3-position memory, with the settings for
the side mirrors and 4 -way power steering column included
for the driver. Upholstery is exactingly double-topstitched
and fitted by hand. And to help maintain your comfort and
its own supple style, the available leather or Nappa leather
is specially treated to reflect sunlight and resist its ravages.
L EGEN DA RY IN ITS LINES
CLASSIC COCKPIT
A DVA N C E D C O N T R O L S
The SLC is engineered to unite three dimensions at once. As
an open roadster, it lets you touch the sky. As a pure sports
car, it embraces the road. And as a Mercedes-Benz, it fosters
a deep bond between itself and you, its driver. Every cockpit
control is designed and laid out with your eyes, touch and
driving focus clearly in mind. Crisp analog gauges flank a 4.5"
color screen offering illustrated menus and useful readouts.
Shift paddles let you change gears with your hands on the
steering wheel. It’s a racing -inspired flat-bottom wheel, too —
hand-stitched in Nappa leather. The SLC 43 also offers an
AMG Performance steering wheel with DINAMICA side grips.
Pure does not mean simplistic in the SLC. It’s brimming with
advanced technology to keep you entertained, informed and
connected to your world. But comprehensive never means
complicated in a Mercedes -Benz, either. The 7" color central
screen is clear and vivid, even in sunlight. And its central
controller makes it easy to use, with intuitive turn-and-click
operation that matches the on-screen menus. The electronic
selector for the new 9G -TRONIC transmission is elegant in
both appearance and function. A sculpture of aluminum and
embossed leather, its design intrigues your eye yet feels
instantly natural in your hand, in genuine sports -car style.
LUMINOUS IN EVERY CURVE
ENLIGHTENED CHASSIS
INTELLIGENT LIGHTING
Just like its advanced powerplants, quick precision is also the
theme of the SLC chassis. The 4-wheel multilink suspension
is tuned expressly to each model, with standard sport tuning
or an optional adjustable suspension on the SLC 300. AMG
components and calibration make the track-tuned SLC 43
eager to take on curves and cones. Its options include AMG
RIDE CONTROL6 and an AMG Handling Package with a limitedslip differential. Every SLC’s staggered-width wheels and
tires1 team up with Torque Vectoring Brake — a feature that
helps shift torque to the outside wheel in a curve, so you can
conquer corners with greater confidence, control and fun.
The SLC shines even when the sun doesn’t. By day, while its
fresh new design draws admiring eyes its way, standard LED
Daytime Running Lamps catch the attention of approaching
motorists. Safety with style, after all, is a Mercedes -Benz
tradition. When darkness falls — even in a long tunnel or dim
parking garage — new active LED headlamps* emit brighter,
whiter light that’s perceived more like natural daylight. The
headlamps swivel their beams into curves as you steer, and
automatically adapt their beams to shine as far down the
road as possible without creating glare for other drivers. The
new LED taillamps feature a distinctive “twin torch” design.
*Optional or not available on some models. Please see back of brochure.
WHERE IT ’S FROM
Affalterbach, Germany, is an orchard town where trophies are
harvested. It’s the home of AMG, where for nearly 50 years
championship racecars have been created by a team of people
who are not just racers. They’re dreamers. Visionaries. And
perfectionists. They develop technologies that heighten power,
like patented NANOSLIDE® cylinder walls that slash friction and
wear. They shatter limitations, unleashing performance while
simultaneously reining in fuel consumption. And they turn
victory on the track — breaking Formula 1® records and by
far the most winning name in the DTM (German Touring Car
Championship) — into vehicles that conquer the streets of the
world, and the hearts of its most passionate drivers.
IS WHAT IT DOES
The Mercedes -AMG SLC 43 is deeply infused with the DNA
of racing champions and the hardware to bring it to life: an
agile suspension, sizable brakes, aggressively aerodynamic
bodywork, 18" AMG® wheels,1 and exclusive cockpit details. Its
AMG -enhanced 362‑hp V6 biturbo engine and paddle-shifted
9G ‑TRONIC 9‑speed transmission can catapult you to 60 mph
in 4.6 seconds.4 AMG DYNAMIC SELECT offers you five drive
modes that fine -tune performance settings from the shift
points to the active sport exhaust. The AMG Handling Package
adds a limited - slip differential, red brake calipers, an AMG
Performance steering wheel with DINAMICA microsuede side
grips, and a dashtop clock modeled after the IWC® “Ingenieur”
sports watch. Silver chrome or gloss black details in the car’s
AMG front apron and rear diffuser complement black or colorkeyed side mirrors, and a functional color- keyed rear spoiler.
*Optional or not available on some models. Please see back of brochure.
EXTENDED SEASON
S TAY O U T
LONGER
Two-seaters also tend to be two-seasoners. The moment the thermometer starts to go down, their
tops come up, and playtime is over. The SLC thinks that’s not very sporting for a sports car. So it
not only brings you the summer sun, it lets you take in the sky on lots of other days — and nights.
The first time you drive a convertible, you undergo a
conversion, too: from a driver, to a lover of the open
road. The first time you open up an SLC, it’s more than
a conversion — it’s a transformation. It only starts with
the way its signature power hardtop changes the SLC
from a sleek coupe to an open roadster in seconds. It’s
more that — in either configuration — it’s engineered to
make sure the sport of driving is always in season.
Once open, it might be a while before you put the top
back up. Innovative sun-reflecting leather* and heated
seats* counteract the extremes of temperature. And
on chilly Autumn days or August nights, the AIRSCARF®
neck-level heating system* can envelop your shoulders
in warmed air. With three heat settings for each seat
and automatic speed-sensitive airflow, it’s like a virtual
scarf that extends your top-down driving weather
when other convertibles have to close for the season.
Of course, at some point you will decide to raise your
SLC’s hardtop. But since it’s also a Panorama roof, the
fun doesn’t have to end. A standard tinted see-through
panel can still bring you the sun and stars, all year long.

CALM IN A CROWD
Few cars offer a feeling of total escape like an SLC. Especially
while keeping you as connected to your world as you want
to be. Its available COMAND® navigation 7 offers 3D maps,
voice control that can learn how you talk, and live traffic from
SiriusXM.8 COMAND and five years of standard mbrace®
Connect2 also bring the Internet and a variety of apps to your
car — so you can satisfy a sudden craving for sushi even while
indulging in random wanderlust. And whether you use an
iPhone® or Android, new smartphone integration* includes
Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto,3 bringing their own unique
interfaces and apps to your SLC’s controls and 7" display.
The SLC’s available driver assistance systems can make
crowded highways and parking lots feel more like a day at
the beach. Blind Spot Assist9 and Lane Keeping Assist10
help smooth your moves on multilane roads. Distance Pilot
DISTRONIC® uses radar to adapt the cruise control to the
traffic flow, even stop-and-go.11 Parking Assist PARKTRONIC
can help you size up open parking spots, then guide you into
one with on-screen instructions.12 Standard safety advances
include the radar-based forward collision mitigation of Active
Brake Assist,13 a rearview camera,14 and ATTENTION ASSIST,®
which can help sense if you’re getting drowsy on a long drive.10
A TR ADITION OF I N NOVATION
TOPS IN HARDTOPS
MAGIC IN THE SKY
There might be no automaker more experienced with power
retractable hardtops than Mercedes - Benz. Perhaps that’s
why the SLC’s top is so elegant whether it’s up, down or in
between. It’s remarkably free of unsightly seams, even for
the double - hinged trunklid. With one finger, a control in the
console lowers the side windows and moves an electric trunk
partition into place — setting aside a generous 6.4 cubic feet
of luggage space. In seconds, the hardtop acrobatically
backflips, its heated glass rear window somersaults, and
they nest neatly in the trunk. You can even operate the top
while driving up to 25 mph, or as you stand outside the car.*
What’s better than an open roadster on a sunny day? If it’s
too hot out — or when you’d rather have the view without
the breeze — the SLC’s standard Panorama roof is just what
you’re looking for. And looking through — with a tinted panel
of heat-rejecting, impact-resistant polycarbonate overhead.
For even greater control of the sun and stars, the SLC is the
only car in its class available with MAGIC SKY CONTROL.®
An innovation pioneered by Mercedes -Benz, its special glass
panel integrates a layer of electromagnetic particles that
darken the roof at a button’s touch. Even in its transparent
mode, the roof still keeps out nearly all UV and infrared rays.
A NEW AGE OF INVIGOR ATION
COMFORT IN NUMBERS
DRIVING IN COLOR
With dual fiber- reinforced roll bars15 behind each of its seats,
the SLC is engineered from the road to the sky not just as a
convertible but as a Mercedes - Benz. And since they’re clad
in brushed aluminum with a mesh wind deflector in between,
it’s proof that safety need not compromise style or comfort.
In fact, the ways the SLC aims to please you keep adding
up the more you explore its richly finished cockpit. Sportcontoured power seats hug you in curves. Dual-zone climate
control* lets you ride in harmony. So do your entertainment
options, from SiriusXM Radio to iHeartRadio® to 500 watts
of lush, clear harman/kardon® 11‑speaker surround sound.
The true joy of a sports car is more than winding blacktop
and blue skies. It’s also found in redlines and green lights,
and in the vibrant world that driving alfresco lets you see and
feel. The SLC cockpit is designed to be as picturesque as the
passing scenery, with classic details like precise topstitching
and metallic rings for the gauges and vents. Aluminum, wood
or AMG carbon fiber trim complements upholstery options
from bold Bengal Red to timeless Saddle Brown to daring
Platinum White. You can even accent the cabin in multicolor
ambient lighting* that you can switch from red-hot Solar to
calm Neutral to cool Polar to suit your mood — or create one.

The personal rewards of striving to be the best are even more meaningful in the development of young
people than they are for automobiles. Instilling the values of leadership, goal-setting, discipline and
teamwork in youth is an investment in everyone’s future. It’s why Mercedes-Benz USA is collaborating
with the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation, with an ongoing commitment to train and place hundreds
of coaches for after-school and in-school sports programs in communities around the country. Sports
offer kids more than the chance to be physically active and have fun. It’s also an opportunity to have
a mentor who can guide them, help them learn how to deal with major life issues, and help them grow
stronger not just physically but in their character. As a Mercedes-Benz driver, you become a part of this
effort to give hundreds of thousands of kids a better life today, and all of us a brighter tomorrow.

Lower-aspect- ratio tires and accompanying wheels provide substantially
increased treadwear, increased tire noise and reduced ride comfort. Serious
wheel and tire damage may occur if the vehicle is operated on rough or
damaged road surfaces or upon encountering road debris or obstacles.
These tires are not designed for use on snow and ice. Winter tires mounted
on appropriately sized and approved wheels are recommended for driving
in those conditions.

Blind Spot Assist may not be sufficient to avoid all accidents involving vehicles
in your blind spot and does not estimate the speed of approaching vehicles.
It must not be used as a sole substitute for driver awareness and checking of
surrounding traffic conditions. See Operator’s Manual for system’s operating
speeds and additional information and warnings.
Driving while drowsy or distracted is dangerous and must be avoided. ATTENTION
ASSIST® and Lane Keeping Assist may be insufficient to alert a fatigued or
distracted driver of lane drift and cannot be relied on to avoid an accident
or serious injury. See Operator’s Manual for system’s operating speeds and
additional information and warnings.
Distance Pilot DISTRONIC® adaptive cruise control is no substitute for active
driving involvement. It does not adapt cruising speed in response to stationary
objects, nor does it predict the curvature and lane layout of the road ahead or
the movement of vehicles ahead. It is the driver’s responsibility at all times to
be attentive to traffic and road conditions, and to provide the steering, braking
and other driving inputs necessary to retain control of the vehicle. Drivers are
cautioned not to wait for the system’s alerts before braking, as that may not
afford sufficient time and distance to brake safely.
Parking Assist PARKTRONIC is not a substitute for driver attention to the
immediate surroundings, as well as any people, animals or vehicles in or
approaching the vehicle’s maneuvering range. System cannot determine if a
space is legally available or of a suitable surface for parking. See Operator’s
Manual for additional information, tips and warnings.
Active Brake Assist may not be sufficient to avoid an accident. It does not react
to certain stationary objects, nor recognize or predict the curvature and/or
lane layout of the road or every movement of vehicles ahead. It is the driver’s
responsibility at all times to be attentive to traffic and road conditions, and
to provide the steering, braking and other driving inputs necessary to retain
control of the vehicle. Drivers are cautioned not to wait for the system’s alerts
before braking, as that may not afford sufficient time and distance to brake
safely. See Operator’s Manual for system’s operating speeds and additional
information and warnings.
Rearview camera does not audibly notify driver of nearby objects and is not a
substitute for actively checking around the vehicle for any obstacles or people.
Images displayed may be limited by camera field of view, weather, lighting
conditions and the presence of dirt, ice or snow on the cameras.
The roll bar system is designed to enhance the level of rollover protection
compared to a vehicle without one. No system, regardless of how advanced, can
eliminate the chance of injury in an accident. Please always wear your seat belt.
Roadside Assistance repairs may involve charges for parts, service and towing.
Vehicle must be accessible from main roads. Depending on the circumstance,
these services may be provided by an outside provider, courtesy of MercedesBenz Roadside Assistance. Restricted roadways, acts of nature and vehicle
accessibility may limit our ability to provide services to you. For full details,
eligibility requirements, and limitations/exclusions of Sign and Drive services,
as well as the Roadside Assistance Program, please see your dealer.
