Autocar has released a new video review of Mercedes-Benz SL500 (R231). The SL-class is firstly launched in 1952 and this year the model celebrates its 60th anniversary.
The 2012 SL-class features entirely changed exterior, chassis, drivetrain and interior. That’s why, when Mercedes states “all-new”, they mean it. The platform is different and the model is the first to get all-aluminum body shell, which weighs a 110 kg less than if it was built from steel. The folding hard-top is also lighter,

Its more powerful, more economical, lighter and smarter.
The body is almost entirely made up of aluminum. The A pillars have some heavy duty steel in them but that's understandable. The cover behind the fuel tank is from magnesium which is even light
