2013 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series Spotted Winter Testing

Braving the cold, our Teamspeed spies bring us today the latest photos of the 2013 Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series during cold-weather testing. It’s been a little while since the SLS Black-Series has been seen but as our other reports have shown the prototype wears wider body kit with a modified front fascia, revised side skirts and extended fenders.

This prototype is sporting massive high-performance brakes and larger rear wheels which hint at some changes to the rear axle. Under the hood, rumors suggest the 6.3-litre V8 engine could deliver 600 hp and 677 Nm of torque. This will likely enable the car the new SLS variant to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 3.5 seconds and hit a top speed in excess of 322 km/h.

We can expect a launch later this year badged as a 2013 Model and pricing is rumored to start at €260,000. Stay tuned for more updates soon!
