Mercedes
CLK
Itext The Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class is
a mid-size rear-wheel drive coupé.
While it
is based on the G-Series, its styling cues, engine,
and price range are closer to that of the SLK-class,
leading some to believe that the CLK is not a coupé version
of the E-class.
Major models include the CLK350, CLK550,
and CLK63 AMG. The CLK63 AMG's 481 bhp (359 kW) V8
engine is the most powerful. There is also a convertible
version of the CLK.
The CLK is a superlative vehicle whose
handling is exceptionally precise even under extreme
cornering, road, and weather conditions, and whose
performance is equal to the fastest readily available
sports cars on the market. Performance is electronically
limited to 135mph in the CLK350 and CLK500 models,
and to 155mph in the CLK55 model. An AMG factory option
is available for an unrestricted top speed. |
