🚘-AMG PureSpeed Puts an F1 Halo Into Production

🏎 Six months after showing it off as a concept, Mercedes-AMG just revealed the PureSpeed, a roof-less, windshield-less version of the SL63. It looks basically identical to the concept car, complete with the Formula 1-inspired "halo" bar that splits the cockpit in two and the 300SLR-referencing humps behind the seats.

👨‍🚀 Mercedes includes two aerodynamically designed helmets for the PureSpeed, which have an intercom system so driver and passenger can talk to each other. The intercom system also connects to the car's infotainment, so you can listen to music or make phone calls. For the "interior," there's also a unique IWC Schaffhausen clock on top of the dashboard.

🔎 And yes, the PureSpeed has a roof of sorts. It's a fabric cover that stretches out over the halo and is attached to the wheel arches, just like you'd have in an old race car. Obviously, it's only for use when parked.

💰 Mercedes plans on building 250 examples. The price hasn't been announced yet. So often with limited-run cars like this, the automaker announces that they are already sold out by the time they are revealed to the wider public

🥝 has unveiled a technology for drawing patterns on cars

🖌 The company does not go into details yet, but clarified that the PixelPaint technology is similar to the circuitry of an inkjet printer. With its help, paint can be applied to the car body with the highest precision, which will allow drawing individual patterns. In this way, a new level of personalization becomes available to the brand's customers: it is said that the creativity of customers is limited only by the technical feasibility of their ideas.

☔️ is working on a fundamentally different possibility of body customization. It is expected that in a few years, production cars will be able to change color at the will of the owner. The technology used for this is similar in principle to electronic ink.
