2009 Lorinser SL550

Dating back to the Fifties, a major car magazine once wrote: “The Mercedes SL is the most cultivated and at the same time most fascinating among the sports cars of our time”. With the most recent face-lift from Stuttgart, the myth is more alive than ever.

Sport service Lorinser has reset the jewel among sports cars: the aerodynamic body parts of the Swabian vehicle customized are fascinatingly reminiscent of the original racing car character, when the letters SL still stood for “Sport Light”.

The RS 9 wheel is full of energy, with remarkable light-alloy wheels and outstanding driving qualities, no wonder this is such a remarkable car. It’s clear that the Roadster not only produces hot air, but also develops a gigantic forward thrust. Reaching 0-60 mph in just less than 5.3 seconds is quite an outstanding feature.

It can accelerate the S4 to 100 km/h in just 5.1 seconds but on average only using 9.7 liters of fuel per 100 km.

Upon the request, the Audi can equip the new S4 and S4 Avant with innovative technologies that can further their increasing lead over the competition. The transmission structures of these cars are continuously active, but only one is powered at a time by the engine. The shifting process takes place as the clutch changes – K1 opens and K2 closes with lightning speed.

After innovating through the use of our HDi FAP technology in competition, running a hybrid car in endurance racing would give Peugeot a chance to gain extremely valuable experience that would benefit the development of production cars.
