2012 Carlsson Mercedes-Benz SLK

Carlsson has developed an aerodynamic package, which, already fitted with the Carlsson front spoiler and the RS front spoiler lip made from carbon, emphasizes the sporty feel of the roadster. Carlsson grille inserts made from electro-polished stainless steel replace the plastic honeycomb grille found in the front skirt of the series model. At the rear, Carlsson provides skirt inserts, a diffuser and a spoiler for increased downthrust. The Carlsson aerodynamic package is accentuated by lowering the suspension by up to 30 millimeters, thus improving the driving dynamics of the roadster. The wheel arches decorate the beautifully designed Carlsson light metal alloy rims in the 1/10 TE design. Single-part wheels are installed with 8.5 x 19 inch rims at the front axle and 9.5 x 19 inch rims to the rear.


In the Mercedes Benz SLK, Carlsson has installed the CB25 S performance kit. Alongside the integrated of the C-Tronic additional control unit from the successful Carlsson “Plug-and-Drive Series”, this also entails the replacement of the standard intercooler for a larger one. The additional control unit, which can be connected in just a few simple steps, has been perfectly optimized for the Mercedes Benz drive train. Combined with the Carlsson CB25 S power increase to 176 kW (239 BHP), the flow-optimized, stainless steel rear muffler, with its four oval tailpipes, lends the roadster a gritty, sporty sound.
