Mercedes-Benz CEO Ola Kaellenius believes cutting economic ties with China is “unthinkable” due to the interdependence of the global economy. The luxury carmaker’s dependency on the Chinese market, the world’s largest, has made decoupling from China unrealistic and puts the majority of Germany’s industry at risk. Recently, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan revealed the plan of the US to “de-risk and diversify” its existing links with China. This echoed the same sentiments aired by European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen in a policy speech last March before she flew to China. These statements left a wary note from businesses who are ever reliant on the giant Asian nation in… Continue Reading »

Giancarlo Perlas April 5, 2019

Anytime we hear about a luxury crossover with an entry-level price, we get goosebumps. We’ve heard rumors about a G-class-inspired Mercedes-Benz crossover that will be placed somewhere between the GLA and the GLC. It looks like it will finally be launched this April 2019 at the Shanghai Auto Show. The GLB, as it is now called, will first arrive as a prototype. For now, the automaker is keeping the details under wraps (though we heard it could have an electric powertrain and be called the EQB), but Mercedes did give us a sketch of how the interior will look like. A funky dashboard—that’s what the new Mercedes-Benz GLB or EQB… Continue Reading »

The six-wheeler copycat just made its debut at the recent Beijing Auto Show. The body, especially the front end of the BJ80 6×6, unmistakably got its design from the Mercedes-AMG G63 6×6. It is surprising to note that the vehicle was made by Beijing Automotive Industry Holding Co. or BAIC. It should be noted that the Chinese automaker has strong links with Daimler.
