A new Mercedes roadster variant has just arrived in the UK and rather interestingly, it’s the most affordable form of the brand’s popular SLC range.
Mercedes, in fact, has launched the new entry-level SLC 180 which is priced from £32,039 (Rs 26.75 lakh) on-road. This new offering is powered by a 156bhp turbocharged 1.6-litre four-cylinder unit which allows the car to accelerate from 0 to 100kmph in 7.9 seconds. A 6-speed manual transmission is a standard feature whereas the 9-speed automatic gearbox is an optional extra.
In the AMG Line spec, the SLC 180 comes as standard with 18-inch alloy wheels, Artico seats, active brake assist, cruise control, air conditioning, sports suspension and brakes.
Besides introducing the entry-level model, Mercedes UK has also announced that the Sport model line has been discontinued to make the range even simpler, with AMG Line being the only option now.
