Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG E-Cell Leaked





Mercedes-Benz has launched leaks for it's future SLS AMG E-Cell; an electric version of the SLS AMG. The car is supposed to come out in 2013, and as Mercedes promises, will be the worl`'s first ever all-electric supercar. Several photos and two videos were leaked each showing the vehicle wearing a very unusual colour that Benz calls ‘AMG lumilectric magno’!


As for a powertrain, the car will be powered by by four electric motors situated at each wheel and by lithium polymer batteries located behind the cockpit and down the center tunnel. This will make power rise to 519 horsepower and 649 lb-ft of torque. Therefore, a 0 to 60 mph acceleration will be done in 4 seconds flat. Other design specs include a new rear diffuser to produce more downforce, a multi-link front suspension with push-rod dampers is also now necessary at the front due to the extra space taken up by the front electric motors. Enjoy the pics and vids!
