And the new interior of the it is a winning combination of comfort and style, giving you a taste of what you can expect once you start the engine. Active safety features like the Electronic Stability Program, antilock brakes and ASR Traction Control help you avoid a collision.

Finally, all four outboard seatbelts are equipped with emergency tensioning retractors and belt force limiters, and the rear seat belts are height adjustable to help keep passengers of all sizes safe.
A cloth soft top, in multiple layers draped over an aluminum frame, quickly tucks beneath a metal bonnet by motorized means. With the top down, 2013 Mercedes SLK-Class look slick and aggressive as the bonnet shows nacelle blisters trailing behind rear seatbacks like ones once worn by vintage race cars. Also posed behind rear seatbacks are loop-like roll bars that can pop up instantly if onboard motion sensors detect potential roll-over movement.

Driving dynamics have been greatly enhanced in the new 2013 Mercedes SLK-Class. The front suspension is now a four-link setup instead of the previous double wishbone.

Other components include coil springs and single-tube shocks and a stabilizer bar. Still to be found at the rear axle is the familiar multi-link system, but now aluminum replaces the steel previously used, saving over 30% of the system's weight. Newly designed, the dash panel is aesthetically and ergonomically more appealing. Chrome and wood accents provide an upscale look to the wide-ranging practicality of the controls and dials. New elements for improved comfort include soft nightlight illumination throughout the cabin, an improved climate control system (four-zone climate control is also available), and electrically adjustable seating with optional multicontour and dynamic multicontour systems.
