The two companies have invested over 200 million Euros to make a supercar that will rival the McLaren F1. The SLR will reflect the heritage, philosophies and styling of Mercedes-Benz and will be produced utilising the latest state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques at the new TAG McLaren facilities currently under construction in Woking, England.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Through the concept of the Mercedes-Benz SLR, DaimlerChrysler and McLaren intend to ensure the transfer of technology and image from their successful Formula 1 partnership to series production, while at the same time reviving the myth of the Silver Arrows with this super sports car.<\/p>\n<p>Prof. J\u00c3\u00bcrgen Hubbert, the DaimlerChrysler board member responsible for Mercedes-Benz passenger cars: By designing and producing the Mercedes-Benz SLR, we will once again underline our globally leading position in the field of technical innovations. The Mercedes-Benz SLR is an incomparable combination of the brand&#8217;s characteristic design, future-oriented innovation and unparalleled safety, quality and performance &#8211; in this way, it will become the benchmark for 21st Century sports cars. McLaren is the ideal partner for us to develop and produce the Mercedes-Benz SLR in close cooperation.<\/p>\n<p>The fascinating bodywork design, clearly identifying the super sports car as a Mercedes-Benz, is characterised by the balanced integration of traditional and modern styling elements. The front section &#8211; with Mercedes&#8217; characteristic four-eye face-, arrow-shaped front and distinctive double wings at the lower tip of the front end &#8211; reflects the fascination of the current McLaren Mercedes Silver Arrow design.<\/p>\n<h4>Story by Daimler Chrysler, edited by Supercars.net<\/h4>\n<figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n            <div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\r\n
