Could feature a new twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8
The Mercedes SLC (codename C190) remains shrouded in mystery but our spies have managed to snap new photos of the upcoming sports car.
Set to become a more affordable replacement for the SLS AMG, which is slated to go out of production in March 2014, the C190 has a long hood, ventilated front fenders and a rakish windscreen. We can also see high-performance brakes, a four-tailpipe sports exhaust system and a rear liftgate with an integrated spoiler.
Engine options remain unconfirmed but speculation suggests the model will be powered by a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 that has outputs of 485 HP (357 kW) and 550 HP (404 kW). There have also been rumors about a range-topping Black Series variant with up to 585 HP (430 kW).
The C190 is expected to be launched in 2015 and carry a base price of approximately €109,000 ($147,640 / £91,825).
