2013 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG
The range-topping SL model adopts an aluminum body shell and other weight-saving measures that reduce curb weight by 254 pounds. Power comes from a mildly reworked version of the previous SL65 AMG's potent twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V12 engine boasting changes to its inlet and exhaust systems. Output climbs from 604 hp to 621 hp. Torque remains limited to 738 lb-ft between 2,300 rpm and 4,300 rpm. The revised engine drives the rear wheels via Mercedes-Benz's 7G-Tronic seven-speed automatic gearbox with a raft of BlueEfficiency features, including automatic stop/start, rather than the two-decade-old 5G-Tronic used by the old SL65 AMG. The sprint to 60 mph is accomplished in 3.9 seconds en route to a top speed of 186 mph. >> Photo Gallery |

BMW X1
Two versions of the X1 are initially planned for U.S. sale: a rear-wheel-drive X1 xDrive28i running a 245-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder engine and an all-wheel-drive X1 xDrive35i with a 306-hp turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder powerplant. Both come standard with an eight-speed automatic gearbox, with the xDrive28i receiving a standard stop/start system. Other BMW EfficientDynamics functions used by the X1 models for North America include brake-energy recuperation, electric power steering and an on-demand system that only sees the engine ancillaries-such as the water pump and the oil pump-operate when required, placing less strain on the engine and leading to lower fuel consumption. >> Photo Gallery |
