After giving the C-Class sedan a nip and tuck a few months ago, Mercedes Benz has turned their attention towards the Coupe, Cabriolet and the warm C43 AMG. The updates include a few visual tweaks and more power for the existing engines.
The Mercedes AMG GT line-up has been growing ever since the first model debuted and caused a stir in the sports car world. But as the years go by, the range is getting diluted, not least of which is by the E-Class-based “four-door coupe.” Customers who wanted a convertible GT still got the real SLS-based chassis, but were confined to the fast AMG GT Roadster or the slightly faster AMG GT C. Now though, they get another one to pick from. Mercedes-Benz slots a new 2019 AMG GT-S Roadster between the standard GT and the GT C.
Ever since the Maybach brand was phased out in 2013, Bentley and Rolls-Royce have had no worthy adversary from the house of Benz. Though the recently-revived Mercedes-Maybach brand came up with ultra-posh versions of the normal Mercedes-Benz models, they are just not as prestigious as the Rolls-Royce luxury barges. Now though, it seems that Maybach is attempting to take on the SUV models from the British stalwarts. A early look is offered by the Vision Mercedes-Maybach Ultimate Luxury concept, and it is astonishingly gaudy.
The minivan segment may be dying, but there are quite a few players trying to keep it alive. Honda, Chrysler and Kia offer the only mainstream ones in the GCC. Toyota does a jurassic-era fleet-spec one. BMW and Opel offer a couple of poorly-received ones. And then there is Mercedes-Benz, who have converted a commercial van into a luxury people-carrier, much like what Volkswagen did with their Transporter Multivan.
The all-new Mercedes-Benz Actros and Arocs trucks were revealed in the UAE and Middle East recently. The new generation trucks have new engine options, better fuel efficiency and new safety features.
It’s been in the news for a long time now. The house from Mercedes Benz has been teasing us with a four-door version of the AMG GT sports car. The Porsche Panamera rivaling sedan (or hatchback?) has been finally revealed at the on-going 2018 Geneva Motor Show. With the most literal name ever, AMG GT 4-Door Coupe, it comes in three flavours and all of them promises everything AMG is famous for.
In the past, there had been several automotive legends that were too good to just vanish into the history books. One such vehicle is the Mercedes-Benz G-Class. Released in 1979, the Mercedes BenzG-Class, or G-Wagen, as it’s better known, had survived four decades since its inception. And now at the 2018 Detroit Motor Show, Mercedes revealed an all-new generation of the 2019 G-Class which is just as rugged as the old one.
The Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class, when it was released for the first time, was a groundbreaking product in terms of its design. It combined the practicality of a sedan and the swooping lines of a coupe in a stylish package that spawned the “four-door coupe” marketing term and several copycats. And now, two generations have passed by, so the time is ripe for an overhauled CLS. Enter the 2019 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class, sporting new corporate styling cues that are at odds with the carryover shape of the car.
The new 2018 Mercedes-Benz S560e hybrid will replace the S500e hybrid in the S-Class lineup.
Here is a list of manufacturer recalls that occured in the past month.
