The SL 450 is the base trim level for the SL luxury roadster series. But don't let the totem pole of trims fool you, the SL 450 is all class and ever-capable. Mercedes builds off tradition with the 2018 and 2019 SL 450. From its 19-inch wheels to the panoramic glass roof, the SL 450 is everything you'd want from an iconic roadster. Its low stance, wind-stretched body lines, and coupe charm all lend themselves to making the SL 450 one of the most instantly recognizable vehicles on the road.

The SL 450 utilizes a 3.0-liter bi-turbo V-6 to produce a powerful 362 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque. It's mated to a rear-wheel-drive system and a nine-speed automatic transmission that shifts like water flows - oh so smoothly.

The 2018 and 2019 SL 450 can go from 0 to 60 in 4.9 seconds, thanks to its powerful system. If you're craving more of a manual-transmission feel for your SL 450, take hold of the steering wheel's paddle shifters. The Dynamic Select drive modes let you alternate between ECO, Comfort, Sport, and Sport+ mode to customize how your SL 450 takes on the road. If you opt for the Active Body Control suspension system option, you'll also get CURVE mode, which takes cornering capabilities to the next level.

In short, the 2018 and 2019 SL 450 models are equipped with more than enough performance features to deliver a thrilling, dynamic ride every time you leave the garage.

Inside the 2018 and 2019 SL 450, you'll find a great range of luxurious features that give you the first-class Mercedes-Benz treatment. Sun-reflecting Nappa leather upholstery keeps you comfortable and cool when the top is down. If you're driving through the winter, the 16-way power-adjustable seats are heated, and the dual-zone climate control lets you and your passenger choose your perfect level of comfort.

You'll also find entertaining and useful tech on the SL 450. The COMAND infotainment center lets you make hands-free phone calls, look up directions, and view important information about your SL through a dashboard-mounted screen directed through the mouse-like controller on the console. The Harmon Kardon LOGIC7 sound system gives new life to your favorite songs, which you can play through Bluetooth. The 2018 or 2019 SL 450 is your new home away from home!

Even the sportiest roadster must be safe. If you want to take advantage of Mercedes' great technological advancements, add the Driver Assistance Package to your SL 450. You'll get features such as active blind spot, lane-keeping, active steering, and active distance assist, as well as brake assist with the cross-traffic function. These technologies keep you and your SL 450 out of harm's way, so you can stay worry-free on the road.
