A New Mercedes-Benz SL Facelift in the Works

The Mercedes-Benz SL has been around for more than half a century, and has evolved into a couple of generations as the years went by.

Recently, it was revealed by a set of spy photographs published in Autoevolution that the R231 SL platform is undergoing a facelift. As seen in the images, it is sporting the headlights of the S-Class coupe. However, the source noted that the current addition is just a test mule.

Mercedes SLK 55 AMG Takes Performance Studio Styling Upgrades

Sadly, Mercedes-Benz is striking down the SLK nameplate in its future production. Based from the recently revealed new nomenclature system of the brand, the successor of the current Mercedes-Benz SLK will carry the SLC name instead to reflect that the roadster originated from the SL and it is somehow related to the C-Class core series of the German luxury automaker. As a tribute to the outgoing series, AMG Performance Studio laid its hands to a Mercedes SLK 55 AMG to give it a couple of upgrades in its appearance both inside and out. Starting at the exterior, the armor of the car was finished in matte black. Then, the wheels came in two-tone alloy, which mimic… Continue Reading »

Mercedes Eschews R1234yf Refrigerant In Favor Of R134a

Although even GM has come to the defense of Dupont in declaring the refrigerant R1234yf safe for use in passenger vehicles, Mercedes continues to stand by its contention that R1234yf can be flammable in certain real-world conditions. Late last year, Mercedes-Benz published the results of its tests, where a head-on collision ruptured the AC lines of the test vehicle, spewing the contents on the hot engine. This combination caused a fire which obviously left the German manufacturer uncomfortable and concerned. With these results in mind, Mercedes applied and was granted dispensation by German federal authorities to continue using the tried and tested R134a refrigerant for a few more production vehicles….
