With the way he dominated the three free practice sessions at the 2013 Monaco Grand Prix, Nico Rosberg was the easy favorite to claim pole position once qualifying came around. Well, that’s just what he did. Rosberg took his third straight pole by beating teammate Lewis Hamilton, who will start at P2 on the grid to make it a Mercedes AMG Petronas front row. Rosberg clocked an impressive 1:13.876 in Q3, with Hamilton not far behind at 1:13.967. Hamilton actually set his time first again, before Rosberg came to claim pole position.

According to reports, Daimler AG is set to sell a quartet of its Mercedes-Benz outlets in Germany in order to cut costs. This is said to be part of the company’s new strategy for cost-cutting. Two dealerships apiece in north and west Germany are slated to be sold off to some of the company’s existing franchise-holders. With the deals in place, a considerable portion of Daimler’s retail workforce will come off the books. It should be noted that Mercedes-Benz provides many benefits for its employees, and not having to pay all those would entail considerable savings overall for Daimler. Some sources have gone as far as to say that the… Continue Reading »

The low demand for electric cargo vans that can go as fast as 50mph may not validate full production of such a vehicle, according to Mercedes-Benz. The luxury car manufacturer made this revelation after its limited release of the Vito E-Cell electric commercial vehicle in the European market. The release of the vehicle was simply to evaluate its feasibility in the market. Due to the low demand, the project may be discontinued, according to Volker Mornhinweg, the head of the van division of Mercedes-Benz. The Vito E-Cell vehicle can carry loads reaching 1,873 lbs. It has a range of around eighty miles. According to the company only a small number… Continue Reading »
