Revell 1/32 Mercedes-Benz SSKL # 07737

The Mercedes-Benz SSKL (Super Sport Kurz Leicht) is a legendary racing car introduced in 1931 as an evolution of the earlier SSK model.

The "SSKL" designation stands for "Super Sport Short Light," reflecting its shortened chassis and significant weight reduction achieved through extensive drilling of the frame.

Powered by a supercharged 7.1-liter inline-six engine, the SSKL produced an impressive 300 horsepower, enabling breathtaking performance for its time.

The car's streamlined design and raw power made it a dominant force in motorsport, securing notable victories such as Rudolf Caracciola's triumph in the 1931 Mille Miglia.

The SSKL is celebrated not only for its engineering excellence but also as an icon of pre-war Grand Prix racing and the golden age of Mercedes-Benz motorsport.
