Celebrating the 125th anniversary, Mercedes-Benz India will launch two of its world-famous models- Mercedes-Benz SL-Class SL 350 and Mercedes-Benz SL-Class GL 500 at an official function to be organized in New Delhi on May 3, 2011. The GermanCar manufacturing company is eyeing warm welcome for both Mercedes SL350 and Mercedes GL500 in India as per the initial market surveys and demand for GL 350 already launched.The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class SL 350 is a sports car with a 245bhp V6 engine, with quite at par performance with the Mercedes V8 SL500. The Mercedes SL350 is a perfect blend of sports and styling and catches 95kmph in just seven seconds and alike all SL models, the top speed has been constrained to 250mph. Two things make the Mercedes SL350 a smart investment-fuel economy and low emissions, the looks would in fact be the one that will drive many towards the sports car. However the variant, out of the five available, which will be unveiled in India is still unclear. There are though unconfirmed reports that the entry level variant of the Mercedes SL350 will hit the Indian roads.Another launch in sequel to the Mercedes-Benz SL-Class SL 350, which was launched last year, is the Mercedes GL500. The SUV Mercedes-Benz SL-Class GL 500 is 250mm longer than other SUVs and has a wheelbase 160mm larger than the M-Class. Fitted with 5.5-litre V8, it delivers top-notch performance in consonance with the looks and catches up 0-95kmph in wow! 6.6 seconds and why not if it comes with 7G-Tronic seven-speed gearbox. Similar to the Mercedes SL350, the Company is yet to declare which variant it will launch. The pricing of both these will also be declared during the launch. Mr. Peter T Honegg, MD and CEO Mercedes Benz India will be unveiling the sports car Mercedes SL350 and the SUV Mercedes GL500.
