About this car
A 2022 Mercedes-AMG SL 55 4MATIC+ in the range-topping Premium Plus specification, finished in Black with 14,404 miles recorded. The R232-generation SL marked AMG's full takeover of the model line, replacing the soft-top with a multi-layered fabric roof and adding a 2+2 layout for the first time. This example benefits from the Premium Plus package, which adds the head-up display, Burmester surround sound, THERMOTRONIC climate control, and the 360-degree camera system alongside Parking Assist PARKTRONIC.
Under the bonnet sits AMG's hand-built M177 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8, producing 469 bhp and 700 lbs/ft of torque, routed through a nine-speed MCT automatic to all four wheels. The 4MATIC+ system is rear-biased under normal driving but shuffles power forward when needed, giving the SL a dual personality — relaxed cruiser or genuinely quick sports car. The listing notes a 0-62 time of 3.9 seconds and a 183 mph top speed, figures that place it comfortably in grand touring territory with real performance credentials.
At under 15,000 miles from a 2022 registration, this SL55 is still well within its early life. The Premium Plus spec represents the most complete equipment level short of the SL63, and Black is a colour that suits the R232's sharp-edged design without drawing unnecessary attention.
