The coupe introduced Gullwing doors as an homage to the 1950s 300SL, but Mercedes also offered a convertible for purchasers seeking something less flamboyant. A hefty 6.2-liter V8 gave the SLS a muscular, old-school character. Mercedes made an electric version as well using 751 horsepower.
Mercedes-Benz A-Class Sedan
Introduced in 2019 as a small but powerful sedan, the Mercedes-Benz A Class was warmly received by consumers and critics alike. The A Class competed well in the tiny luxury car segment, faring well against rivals such as the Audi A3 and BMW 1 and 2 Series.
The 188-hp 2.0L engine is standard for all trims, yet despite its size on paper, it consistently impresses with the way it carries the car around. It’s a beautifully designed and conceptualized car that will appeal to anyone looking for both sportiness and practicality. And aside from BMW’s 2-series, competitors don’t really have an answer for it.
MERCEDES A CLASS (W176- GEN)
The W176-gen Mercedes-Benz A-Class can be regarded as a game changer for the brand as it’s replaced model didn’t have a place in automotive history. it was the best-looking hatchback on the market (premium or budget) and its larger proportions meant it could better serve the needs of a small family without breaking the bank.
Some of it’s amazing features includes; the vicious A 45 AMG, a true pocket-rocket hot hatch that extracted 376 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque from a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder turbocharged gasoline engine.
MERCEDES S-Class(W222)
It’s no doubt that the Mercedes S_ class is one to be identified amongst the brands range of cars while still taking its place in the automotive market. The W222 S-Class, still on sale today – albeit in its facelifted variant (and soon to be replaced by an all-new generation) – brought together everything Mercedes-Benz could deliver to top-shelf levels on all fronts. It has FlexRay optical fiber wiring, an Intel Atom processor for the COMAND interface. Also included are road-scanning active suspension that adapted instantly to the roughness of the road surface, coupled with a revolutionary multimedia setup. Not only is the S-Class one of the most comfortable cars in the world, but it nestles up to 621 horsepower under the hood, courtesy of an eager V12. Currently, it beats both BMW, Audi, and Porsche in terms of what it offers for the price.
Mercedes Benz G-CLASS
The G-Class definitely needs less of hype as it has made a name for itself and now becomes a symbol of luxury. It features one of the most recognizable boxy designs ever, yet no one can deny its aesthetic appeal.
