Mercedes SLK-Class Engines and Transmissions

Every Mercedes SLK-Class engine here is a supercharged four-cylinder gasoline unit driving the rear wheels, a classic sports-car drivetrain layout. Examples include the 2.0 MT and 2.3 MT with manual gearboxes for keener control, plus the 2.3 AT, whose automatic transmission suits relaxed touring.
