Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Coupe Electric Drive come to you next year
Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Coupe Electric Drive is planned to be sold next year for up to 416 500 euro in Germany.
After showing off the concept electric supercar SLS AMG E-Cell in 2010, Mercedes-Benz is now presenting the SLS, Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Coupe Electric Drive be the fastest electric-powered supercar products in the world as he officially launched next year.
In designing the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Coupe Electric Drive, Mercedes-AMG uses some Formula 1 technology in his body and drivetrain as the main focus.
The battery is placed inside a monocoque carbon fiber that acts as a support in which the body is aluminum space-frame construction.
To keep the center of gravity as low as possible, accidentally put the battery compartment on the bottom of the vehicle with a stretched position so that the weight distribution becomes more flat.
The interior is made with a thick smell of racing through the black leather and carbon fiber ornaments is one way to increase efficiency.
And as electric vehicles, the instrument cluster in the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Coupe Electric Drive does not have a measuring engine rpm, but there is a display of power, charging status and mode of transmission.
In addition there is also a high-speed internet access and display row data that will tell you different information than that you may need about the status of the car and its performance.The driving force is no longer logs a large gasoline engines, but four synchronous electric motors weighing 45 kg each can spin up to 13,000 rpm and is capable of generating a total of 740 bhp power and torque of 1,000 Nm.
Thanks to the basic character of the electric motor has a maximum torque ranging from round 0, making this battery-powered SLS can accelerate from 0 to 100 km / h in just 3.9 seconds with a maximum speed of 250 km / h.
The four electric motors are selectively connected through a transmission axially-arranged plan known as the 'AMG Torque Dynamics'. This allows the control and individually braking the electric motor that can improve handling and performance, especially when bulldoze the bend.
With lithium-ion battery load reaching its 548 kg, the vehicle can run up to 250 kilometers. This electrically powered supercar has three transmission modes: Comfort, Sport and Sport Plus.
Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Coupe Electric Drive uses a lithium-ion high-voltage Formula 1 400 volts with a capacity of 60 kWh. This advanced battery developed by Mercedes-AMG GmbH in Affalterbach, Germany and Mercedes AMG High Performance Powertrains in Brixworth Ltd UK.12 module battery is equipped with a liquid cooling system and have a heating system that keeping always at optimum temperatures during the winter.
During the drive, the SLS get extra mileage through the automatic battery charging works when the vehicle is doing deceleration or braking.
When at home, the battery can be charged by plugging the charging cable into a standard electrical plug for 20 hours, or use an extra 22 kW wall box that can shorten the charging time to three hours.Of course, the 'machine' electric supercar has no sound frightening. Because it makes it less fun, Mercedes AMG SLS installed 11 speakers to make the sound like a true sports car that can growl and roar in accordance with driving conditions.
