The third-generation Mercedes-Benz SLK roadster will arrive in New Zealand later this year with a "magic" ingredient - an optional glass roof that switches from light to dark.The carmaker calls the panoramic roof feature "magic sky control", in that it can be switched from light to dark with the touch of a button to block out sun.

The car comes standard with a retractable metal roof that folds into the boot. It takes styling cues from the CLS sedan and the SLS AMG coupe. "The new SLK embodies the role of the trendsetter," said Dieter Zetsche, CEO of parent-company Daimler.

"I am convinced that with its passionate design, its high-quality interior and its modesty
at the fuel station, it will continue to provide an enormous amount of fun on the
road in future, too, consolidating its status as a cult roadster."

Rosberg added that while it was ‘something special’ to get the first run,
the pre-season test schedule will see the dayssplit ‘fairly’

Michael Schumacher.
