More Details Revealed About The New Mercedes-Benz GLS

Giancarlo Perlas April 10, 2019

We’ll finally get to experience the full impact of the new Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class during its reveal at the New York Auto Show next week but that didn’t stop the German carmaker from testing it on the road with as less cover as possible. We already know a lot of things about the new GLS-Class SUV, thanks to previous sightings while being tested on the road with other new Mercedes cars. These latest spy photos showed more details of the SUV’s front and rear ends, though the minor camo wrap still hides most of the lighting designs. This set of photos came after a couple of days since we sighted the… Continue Reading »

Tuned Mercedes-Benz X-Class Combines Ruggedness with Opulence

Giancarlo Perlas April 10, 2019

Being a pickup truck, the Mercedes-Benz X-Class is imposing due to its muscular look. However, an unnamed Turkish tuner was able to fit the vehicle with several cosmetic upgrades, which put a touch of opulence to its rugged looks. What we have here is a Mercedes-Benz X250d pickup. This particular unit features a black body paint but some of its key areas like the radiator grille, bumper, bull bar, fenders, roof rack, roll cage, side mirror caps and wheels offer a contrasting gold finish. The bull bar of the X-Class shows auxiliary headlamps fixed into it while the roof is fitted with LED lights. A winch can also be found… Continue Reading »

Giancarlo Perlas April 10, 2019

German automaker Mercedes-Benz confirmed that the redesigned 2020 GLS will be unveiled at the New York Auto Show next week. The company revealed a couple of more details than we anticipated, though no teaser photos were provided. Mercedes said that the redesigned auto uses the modular high architecture (MHA) platform. This is the same platform used on the GLE crossover, which means the GLS will stretch by as much as 2.36 inches compared to the current SUV’s wheelbase. The new GLS will also be supporting the E-Active Body Control suspension that can be found on the GLE. One of the features of the suspension is its ability to easily free… Continue Reading »

New Mercedes-Benz Tech Frees Itself From Getting Stuck In Mud

Giancarlo Perlas April 10, 2019

A new technology from German automaker Mercedes will allow drivers to free its GLE vehicles from getting stuck in the mud with only so much of an effort. Called the E-Active Body Control feature, the technology will automatically and quickly raise and lower the suspension several times to change the ground pressure under the tires and assist traction by removing the mud deposits that get stuck under the wheel. Paul Harmon, product manager of the GLE models, called the tech the “Hail Mary” to getting stuck in the mud or sand. This is great for GLE drivers who love off-road adventures and taking their GLE cars when they climb hills… Continue Reading »

On its own, the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S 4-Door Coupe is already one of the fastest four-door cars in the market with its 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 that makes 630 horsepower and 664 pound-feet of torque.

Mercedes-AMG E53 Coupe Offers Greener Performance Boost

Giancarlo Perlas April 5, 2019

We have been so used to Mercedes-AMG offering big muscular engines in its vehicles but now, the German automaker’s performance arm is offering its E53 coupe as a greener and more approachable alternative to its traditional big-powered engines. Mercedes cars with the 53 badge will be equipped with 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-six engines with electric assist. Models with this engine will sit below the already existing AMG 63 models in terms of price and performance. Worried that the E53 coupe does not deserve the AMG label? Mercedes claims it’s still worthy of being manufactured under the performance arm and that it is powerful enough to compete with other cars in the… Continue Reading »
