For anyone Mercedes-Benz customers that discover the regular AMG variants too tame for his or her tastes, the Stuttgart automaker’s racecar division has developed a particular group of cars that carry the Black Series nameplate.
The Black Series AMG models can be identified by their more extreme bodywork and beefed up performance as well as a asking price to fit their abilities.
Not just Mercedes-Benz’s top offering, the SLS AMG gullwing-door supercar, can escape the Black Series treatment. A lightly disguised prototype version from the SLS AMG Black Series edition was captured by our scoop photographers while testing around the Nürburgring track.
Most evident will be the widened wheel arches that cover the more expensive wheels as opposed to standard model’s 265/35ZR19 front and 295/30ZR20 rear tires and also the modified bumpers which might be hiding under the camouflage.
From that point on, it’s all speculation for the present time, but it’s almost confident that the SLS AMG Black Series will achieve more efficient version in the regular car’s 563HP V8 engine, possibly with 650HP or even more, and a stiffer, more track focused suspension.
We expect you’ll see the new Black Series making its world premiere sometime next season.
