Photos of the 2012 Mercedes A-Class have leaked from a patent filing in Europe, showing a car far less dynamic than the A-class Concept from Paris 2010. Car makers must hate filing for patents on new cars, because it means trusting images of their new and secret car to a third party. Basic images, admittedly, but the real-deal nonetheless. […]
Mercedes G-Class: BA3 Final Edition Swansong
With the SWB Mercedes G-Class about to stop production, Mercedes weighs in with a limited edition model – the Mercedes G350 BlueTEC BA3 Final Edition The word ‘Iconic’ is bandied around far too much when it comes to cars. We’re probably as guilty as the next pack of hacks of attaching iconic to anything that’s been around for a while. […]
Mercedes SLS AMG Roadster: Official photos
Mercedes has finally revealed official photos of the 2012 Mercedes SLS AMG Roadster, even thought it won’t debut until the Frankfurt Motor Show in September. The official arrival of the Mercedes SLS AMG Roadster is turning out to be a rather difficult event to call. It’s getting on for two years since we ran the first spy […]
2012 Mercedes E63 AMG gets Twin-Turbo 5.5-Litre V8: New York 2011 Catch-up
Mercedes has given the 2012 E63 AMG a heart transplant with the new 5.5 litre twin-turbo V8. All the better to take on the new M5. And the Jaguar XKR-S It’s always the same; however hard we try there’s always something of proper interest that slips through the net when there’s a motor show on, […]
2012 Mercedes A-Class AMG to get 350bhp & 4WD
It’s being reported that Mercedes will offer the 2012 / 2013 Mercedes A-Class AMG – based on the Mercedes Concept-A – with 350bhp and 4WD. It’s rather hard to imagine the current Mercedes A-Class coming with 350bhp running through its front wheels. It may have managed to pass the Elk test to make it safe, […]
Schumacher & Rosberg: A pregnant pause
Mercedes F1 has produced a little video showing teasing rivalry between Michael Schumacher and Nico Rosberg as they stop to help a stranded pregnant woman. Those crazy Germans, they do like to josh with us. Since Mercedes now has an all German team we wonder if they’re trying a bit too hard to prove there’s a human […]
Mercedes C63 AMG Black Series Coupe Spied
We have a spy shot of the coupe version of the C63 Black – the Mercedes C63 AMG Black Series Coupe. There really hasn’t been a huge number of Mercedes Black Series cars so far. We’ve had the CLK63 Black Series, which was very good. And the SL65 Black Series, which wasn’t. Oh, and the […]
2012 Mercedes A-Class: The Concept-A Videos
We have the first video of the 2012 Mercedes A Class in Concept-A guise, both on the move and in the studio with Mercedes’ Mark Fetherston explaining its form. We had the first proper details on the Mercedes Concept-A earlier this week, which points the way – as a slightly tamed-down version – to the 2012 Mercedes A-Class. That Mercedes A Class […]
2012 Mercedes A-Class: Mercedes Concept A-Class revealed
Mercedes reveals the Mercedes Concept A, a concept version of the all-new 2012 Mercedes A-Class which will debut at Shanghai. We had a sketch to tease the new Mercedes A-Class last month. But now, with the Shanghai Motor Show almost upon us, the 2012 Mercedes A-Class get revealed. And it’s very convincing. Although we are likely to see […]
Mercedes SLS AMG Roadster Undisguised
We have a photo of the Mercedes SLS AMG Roadster undisguised on the road in Hamburg, ahead of its debut at the New York Motor Show this month. It’s not too hard to tell we’re coming up to two major motors shows in April – the New York Motor Show and the Shanghai Motor Show. […]
