Giancarlo Perlas August 14, 2019

Daimler is on a roll to make their vehicles autonomous.

Mercedes-Benz Is Trying In-Car Deliveries With Chark

Giancarlo Perlas August 14, 2019

Chark is the new Mercedes-Benz program that will allow for the delivery of packages in vehicles. Instead of providing the online shops and courier services with your residential or office address, you will give the address of the Chark hub and the user’s Chark ID number. The delivery will then be made to your car. Mercedes-Benz isn’t the first automaker to give this program a try. Volvo started a similar program back in 2015. Skoda also had its pilot program recently. And of course, Amazon already gave it a go with Amazon Key, the company’s in-car parcel drop-off service that works with Honda, GM, and Ford vehicles. Chark is the… Continue Reading »

Giancarlo Perlas August 13, 2019

The Mercedes-AMG GT R is currently in showrooms, so making a more powerful Black Series might not be a priority for the German company. And yet, Mercedes can slot the Black Series either between the GT S and the GT R or introduce it as a top-range model. Although Mercedes continues to be quiet about the possible Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series plans, we’ve seen the latest prototypes courtesy of TopSpeed’s new spy shots and to say it’s exciting is an understatement. Exterior The test cars are almost identical to the AMG GT R, although the car—its front fascia and its rear end—is more aggressive-looking than any other vehicles in the… Continue Reading »
