Mercedes SL-Class Engines and Transmissions
A Mercedes SL-Class engine here is gasoline, with an automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. The 3.0 AT and 3.5 AT Roadster versions are typical powertrain examples, not the full lineup. You shift less in traffic and send power to the rear wheels for a classic grand-touring feel.

Mercedes SL-Class Trims and Equipment
Mercedes SL-Class trim levels describe the equipment packaged with a technical version. On the 3.5 AT Roadster with gasoline, automatic and rear-wheel drive, SL 350 is the named equipment configuration. You still choose options and cabin details within that trim, rather than treating every SL as identically equipped.
