Vietnamese car fans now have the chance to see and feel one of the world’s first SLS AMGs in April in Hanoi and HCMC, announced Mercedes-Benz Vietnam today.

The European launch of the car is at the race track Le Castellet in France in March 14-16.

“The SLS AMG, the latest masterpiece of Mercedes-Benz and its sport tuning arm AMG, is the world renowned super sports car,” said Dr. Udo Loersch, MB Vietnam General Director. “We are happy to reserve a few cars for Vietnam, as production capacity is sold out worldwide for the first 2 years.”

The first one arriving in Vietnam in April will be a “silver arrow” with silver paint color and impressive red interior. It will travel around the Mercedes-Benz showrooms in Hanoi and HCMC.

Accelerating from stand still to 100km/h in only 3.8 seconds, the pace of the SLS is similar to an F1 car on the racing track. SLS AMG has the maximum speed of 317km/h.

On this occasion, Mercedes-Benz Vietnam also starts to take orders for other AMG cars: C63, E63, S63, ML63, all are 2010 model year.
