The AMG Black Series is the crown jewel of the iconic “Gullwing” Mercedes-Benz SLS. Using the already formidable AMG-tuned SLS as a foundation, the Black Series pushes the boundaries of performance through a potent combination of increased power and aggressive weight reduction.
The heart of the beast is a tuned-up 6.2L V8 engine, now boasting 622 horsepower. To handle this extra muscle, the internals have been significantly bolstered with wider main bearings and ultra-strong connecting rod bolts. It is also lighter thanks to extensive use of carbon fiber in the hood, rear underbody panels, torque tube, driveshaft, and rear spoiler.
