The SLK250 slots between the SLK200 and SLK350, which introduced the third-generation hardtop roadster to Australia back in August 2011.

With a starting price of $91,900, the SLK250 is $9325 cheaper than the model it replaces.

The SLK250 features a more powerful version of the 1.8-litre turbocharged petrol engine from the SLK200. It produces an extra 15kW and 40Nm for a maximum output of 150kW and 310Nm of torque. The SLK250 is four-tenths faster from 0-100km/h (6.6 seconds), yet uses just 0.1 litres per 100km more fuel.
