Our take on this /// Verdict

The Mercedes SLK 350 is a compelling package that blends style, performance, and practicality, making it a strong contender in the luxury roadster segment. While it may not match the driving dynamics of its rivals like the Porsche Boxster or the BMW Z4, it more than makes up for it with its muscular 3.5-litre V6 engine, producing 306bhp, and its ability to go from 0-100kph in just 5.6 seconds. The cars multi-link suspension provides good grip and contained body roll, although the steering lacks precision and the ride can be stiff over rough surfaces. The interior is quintessentially Mercedes, with high-quality materials and a comfortable cockpit. Overall, its a great choice for those seeking a blend of performance, luxury, and the unique appeal of a hardtop convertible.

Price

The Mercedes SLK 350 was launched in India at an ex-showroom price of Rs 61.9 lakh in Delhi. When you factor in the on-road costs, including taxes and registration, the price can easily exceed Rs 70 lakh, depending on the state and local taxes. This places the SLK 350 firmly in the luxury segment, competing with other high-end convertibles. While the price may seem steep, the SLK 350 offers a unique combination of performance, luxury, and the versatility of a hardtop convertible, which can justify the cost for those seeking a premium driving experience.

Mileage

Friday, 22 November 2024 05:01 PM When it comes to mileage, the Mercedes SLK 350 is not particularly frugal, given its powerful V6 engine. In real-world driving conditions in India, you can expect an average fuel efficiency of around 6-8 kml, which is typical for a high-performance vehicle of its class. This means that running costs will be higher, especially considering the premium fuel it requires. However, for those who prioritize performance and luxury over fuel efficiency, the SLK 350 remains a viable option.
