The new third generation Mercedes-Benz SLK incorporates both the properties of its predecessor as well as new ideas and concepts. The constantly increasing need to save resources is reflected in the reduction of the aerodynamic drag. Despite highlevel design requirements with respect to the exterior, safety-relevant parameters such as rear-axle lift have been improved for the driving dynamics and the fields of vision onto the immediate surroundings remain free of dirt for longer when driving in the rain. Although designed as a roadster, comfort requirements are extremely important and are met by wind noise reductions and innovative concepts for minimizing draught when driving with open top. This SLK also benefits from ever advancing development tools with respect to both experimental wind tunnel technology and computational flow simulation. Some progress that has been made is very conspicuous and clearly visible. Some progress only becomes clear on closer inspection. Nevertheless, progress has been made and it is perceptible.
