With its style, engineering, and details, the Mercedes-Benz 190 SL was an appealing and more economical alternative to the luxurious Mercedes-Benz 300SL sports car. When did the 190 SL debut?

Introduced in May 1955, the 190 SL, was a two-seater roadster designed after the legendary 300 SL Gullwing sports car. However, its engineering was quite different. While the Gullwing was built on a sophisticated space frame, the 190 SL Cabriolet borrowed its chassis and four-cylinder engine from the 180 saloon.
