Last but not least, SLK stands for small sports car. Be aware that this letters could mean different things for different car manufacturers.
For example, consider the X, which is often used to denote a crossover and may also be referred to as an AWD (all-wheel drive) vehicle because it has a single-piece body and frame.
Although officially constructed on a truck chassis, crossovers are frequently included in the SUV market.
Very informative right? Now you can tell the difference between the letters! Can you spot your vehicle letters?
