Mercedes-Benz clocks fastest lap at Buddh 
New Delhi / Gr. Noida, Mar 4 : Automobile major Mercedes-Benz on Monday said its 'super car' SLS AMG broke the lap record to regain the top position of the fastest lap set by any production car at the Buddh International Circuit.
The lap timing set at 2 minutes 14.521 seconds is the fastest by any production car.
The SLS AMG was driven by ace German Driver and AMG Driving Instructor Norman Simon.
Eberhard Kern, Managing Director and CEO, Mercedes-Benz India, said: "The car has proved its mettle time and time again across major racing tracks of the world and it is only fitting that in India too, it holds the title of the fastest lap achieved by a production car."
SLS AMG is reminiscent of the legendary 300 SL sports car of the 1950s.
Among the highlights of the SLS AMG are its aluminium space-frame body, AMG 6.3-litre V8 front mid-engine with 420 kW (571 hp) and 650 nm of torque, seven-speed dual clutch transmission in a transaxle arrangement and aluminium double-wishbone sports suspension. --IBNS
