Following the long-running R129-generation Mercedes-Benz SL models that debuted in 1989, the new fifth-generation R230 series SL line were introduced for 2001. Delivering a welcome return to the SLs sporting roots, the new SL models were also measurably lighter than before. In Mercedes-Benz tradition, the new R230 models bristled with modern technology and welcome amenities including a  new Vario-roof retractable hardtop design that raises and lowers in seconds with the touch of a button, Sensotronic electronically-controlled brakes, Electronic Stability Control, and Active Body Control suspension hydraulics eliminating the need for anti-roll bars. More muscular and sportier in character than ever before, the R230 SL models also featured handsome styling and a wide array of passenger amenities, leaving no doubt as to its luxury and impeccable heritage.
