Mercedes-Benz stands out with its efficiency drive: the seven new versions of the A, B and CLA-Class provide fuel savings of up to 7 percent compared to their predecessors.
The A 200 CDI 4MATIC and the A 220 CDI 4MATIC also represent the first four-wheel drive diesel models that form part of Mercedes-Benz's new generation of compact cars.
The new A 200 CDI 4MATIC and A 220 CDI 4MATIC models are the first-wheel drive diesel models in Mercedes-Benz's new generation of compact cars, offering efficiency with traction. The most innovative components of the new 4MATIC include the rear axle power output integrated in the 7G-DCT automatic dual-clutch transmission and the integrated, hydraulically operated multi-disc clutch rear axle gear unit. This installation allows the drive torque to be distributed in a completely variable manner between the front and rear axles. The additional benefits of this design are a lower system weight and higher efficiency than competition.
The common-rail direct-injection 3.0-liter six-cylinder diesel engine impresses with its outstanding performance.
The maximum torque of 550 Nm is available in a wide engine speed range from 1400 to 3200 rpm. This means that high torque is already present at low engine speeds. Whether it's sporty driving style, comfortable long-distance tours or off-road driving in harsh conditions - the V6 always ensures calm and efficient progress. Special designs include a lightweight design, a single-stage turbocharger with variable turbine geometry, and the innovative NANOSLIDE ® cylinder liner coating, which is also used in Formula 1, especially for agile motor response.
The 7G-TRONIC PLUS automatic transmission, available as standard, with steering shift paddles, operates without downtime during gear shifting. This improves handling when taking gradients, terrain and trailers. Other advantages include fast gearshift operation and low engine speed. This has a positive effect, especially in terms of efficiency and noise levels. The wide gearshift range provides an individual driving experience with the DYNAMIC SELECTION system. Manual gear change is also possible with the shift paddles on the steering wheel.
DYNAMIC SELECTION for individual driving characteristics
With the DYNAMIC SELECT system supplied as standard, the X 350 d 4MATIC has a driving mode switch that is rarely available in the receiving section. With five driving modes, the driving characteristics can be changed by fingertip control - sporty and dynamic from comfort and comfort. These modes change the motor response, the shift points of the automatic transmission and the ECO start / stop function:
Comfort: This mode is activated automatically when the engine is running. Provides compatible accelerator features and early shift points emphasizing comfort.
Eco: The 7G-TRONIC PLUS shifts gears, especially at low engine speeds.
Sports: The engine reacts immediately to the gas inlet. The automatic transmission uses the entire engine speed to shift and shifts at higher engine speeds.
Manual: The automatic transmission can be operated manually using the shift lever on the steering wheel. This results in considerably shorter shift times than the Comfort and Eco programs.
Offroad: This mode is suitable for driving in difficult terrain. It offers higher sliding points and a more smooth, therefore more precisely adjustable, accelerator characteristic curve.
The ECO start / stop function can be used in all driving modes except Offroad mode. The DYNAMIC SELECTION switch is located on the central control panel in the center console. The selected mode is displayed as a status and appears as a pop-up on the multifunction display of the instrument panel for a short time when the mode is changed.

2017 Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe Review
Hip new duds for MB's compact luxury crossover.
Remember when skinny jeans re-emerged a few years back? Largely out of vogue since their heyday of the ’80s era, when punk and metal scenesters adopted the calf-hugging denims as a reaction to the elephant-bell-bottom jeans of the 1970s, their home-crafted origins often resulted in what appeared to be a pair of rather sloppily tailored denim jodhpurs, comically undermining their objective as fashion statement. Twenty-first-century skinny jeans, on the other hand, are the product of mass-market demand. Offering stylish and comparatively conservative tailoring right off the rack, these duds offer buyers a painless way to get in on the latest trend while bolstering profits for their makers.
The 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLC coupe is largely a product of the same philosophy. Based on the popular GLC compact luxury crossover, the GLC coupe dials up the style and hipness factors directly from the factory, while attempting to adhere to its core utility mission of hauling people and their stuff. Rival BMW tested these waters with its larger X6 so-called four-door coupe back in 2008, and fashionable consumers dutifully fell in line with cash in hand; when the compact BMW X4 four-door coupe resonated similarly in 2014, it signaled that a genuine shift in consumer taste was at hand. Even better, from the manufacturer’s standpoint, is that most of the heavy development work for the coupe was already done; they could simply derive a second model from an existing architecture. No longer a quirky anomaly, the GLC coupe is just the latest model to get in on the four-door crossover-coupe action.
A Little Sleeker
As often is the case with pants, the point of the GLC coupe is a stylish cut. Whereas the tall roofline of the GLC was designed to provide maximum headroom and cargo space, the GLC coupe cuts a more rakish profile that says to the world, “Hey, I’m a practical guy, but I haven’t entirely given up.” At 63.0 inches high and 186.2 inches long, it’s 1.6 inches lower and 3.1 inches longer than the regular GLC-class. Most of the extra length comes from the designers’ need to extend the gently sloping roofline into the rear haunches while maintaining proportions that avoid comparison with the Pontiac Aztek. It works here, looking better integrated than some of these styling exercises. The rear features a beefed-up bumper incorporating a pair of chrome exhaust tips (standard) that exit through a diffuser-like lower panel. Split taillamps and a sharp spoiler lip supposedly echo those of the S-class coupe; squint and you can see the resemblance, but the GLC version definitely resides in an entirely different tax bracket. The front lighting elements also toe the corporate styling line, while the A-pillars are slightly more upright than those on the standard GLC.
Skinny-jean stylishness can result in an uncomfortably tight fit; similarly, the CUV coupe form is known to pare rear-seat headroom and cargo space. Unfortunately, we can’t tell you exactly how much rear headroom has been lost, since official interior dimensions have not yet been released and we neglected to pack laser-enabled yardsticks for this first drive of the GLC coupe in the mountains of Italy. It doesn’t seem excessively cramped, though. (We’ll have hard numbers as soon as we get one for a full test.) Preliminary European info pegs the cargo capacity at 18 cubic feet with rear seat up, which is only slightly less than the 19 cubes in the 2016 GLC300. That’s a small price to pay for looking good.
Interior appointments nearly duplicate those in the GLC. That means supportive seating and a large center console that stretches from the armrest to the dashboard, intersecting just behind the surface of the infotainment display (a 7.0-inch unit is standard; an 8.4-incher is optional), which stands proud atop the dash, above the circular HVAC vents. Standard equipment, as on the regular GLC300, includes power-operated sunroof, driver’s seat, tailgate and folding mirrors; collision prevention assist; and keyless start, among other minor niceties.

2018 Mercedes-Benz E-class Coupe: More Size, More Style, More Space
A big step up for Benz's middle two-door.
The coupe—the real, two-door variety—is alive and well at Mercedes-Benz. The latest evidence is the redesigned two-door now joining the new W213-generation E-class lineup to bring the middle child in step with its C- and S-class siblings.
At first glance, you could be forgiven for confusing this new E-class for its stablemates, given the flowing design language shared by all three. That’s not a dig, as the E-class preserves much of the beauty of the larger S-class despite its slightly shrunken proportions. While the familiar front end with its “diamond” grille is hardly groundbreaking, the E-class coupe’s clean body sides and B-pillar-less side glass combine with an uncluttered rear end to make for a beautifully smooth profile.
Creating Space
Moving away from the C-class–derived underpinnings of the previous E-class coupe, the new E coupe now shares more with the E sedan, widening the size gap between it and the smaller model. Riding on a 4.4-inch-longer wheelbase, the new coupe is five inches longer overall, three inches wider, and an inch and a half taller than its predecessor, and its 190.0-inch length now neatly splits the difference between the 184.5-inch C-class and the 197.9-inch S-class. Mercedes says that rear-seat room increases commensurately, with the two individual chairs back there providing better leg- and headroom than before.
The engine lineup for the U.S. market also seems poised to put some distance between the E- and the C-class. While the E300 sedan available on our shores shares its turbocharged four-cylinder with the C300, the two-door E will be offered only as an E400. As it does on the E-class wagon, this moniker signifies a standard twin-turbo 3.0-liter V-6 making 329 horsepower and 354 lb-ft of torque. This same engine was installed in the previous E400 coupe, but a new nine-speed automatic transmission replaces the previous seven-speed for improved acceleration and improved fuel economy, claims Mercedes. Rear-wheel-drive and 4MATIC all-wheel-drive versions will be offered, and Mercedes says the RWD E400 gets from zero to 60 mph in 5.2 seconds, 0.9 second quicker than the company’s claim for the outgoing model.
The coupe’s ride height is lower than the sedan’s, and an air suspension is optional. A Sport package (the white car in the photos) adds a body kit, AMG wheels, and an AMG steering wheel. Those desiring an even sportier E-class coupe will have to wait a bit longer for a full AMG version; there’s no official word on one yet, although a V-8–powered E63 coupe won’t be in the cards. Instead, the AMG coupe will be powered by one of Mercedes-Benz’s new turbocharged inline-six engines, possibly with around 450 horsepower, meant to sit above AMG’s own E43 sedan variant, which has a more powerful version of the E400’s turbocharged V-6.
Techy Treats
A full array of high-tech features will be available in the coupe, as they are in the E-class sedan. The sedan’s 12.3-inch central COMAND screen is standard on the two-door, and a second 12.3-inch digital instrument-cluster display is optional. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are included on models equipped with navigation, and there’s a wireless inductive charging pad for compatible smartphones as well. Automatic emergency braking is standard equipment, while the more advanced Drive Pilot semi-autonomous system is available.
Pricing will be announced closer to the E-class’s U.S. launch next summer, but customers should expect to pay a premium for its extra dose of style and power compared with the E300 sedan, which starts at $53,075.

Mercedes-Benz Safety Features
No matter what Mercedes-Benz you’re driving, you can always have confidence that it will be backed by some of the most reliable safety features in the industry. The Mercedes-Benz brand has a strong reputation for constructing their vehicles in a way that will dramatically lessen the chances of an accident. Let’s take a look at some of the most notable Mercedes-Benz safety features available.
Pre-Safe Technology
Mercedes-Benz’s signature Pre-Safe technology will help warn drivers whenever there’s an imminent accident. This technology will also help prepare the vehicle for the collision by tightening seatbelts, closing the sunroof and windows, and even adjust front head restraints. When driving through the Carolinas there’s no better way to be and feel safer than driving a vehicle with Mercedes-Benz safety features.
Accident Investigation
Mercedes-Benz takes pride in offering some of the most notable safety features in the industry. This is why they’ve launched their accident investigation program - to help them determine what the most likely scenario for an accident might be so that they can develop technology to prevent it. They calculate collision angles, impact speed, and collect much more data to help improve their groundbreaking technology, which includes Pre-Safe, Attention Assist, and many others.
Pre-Safe Brake and Distronic Plus Technology
Every second that a driver spends distracted on the road is a second that can have life-changing implications. This is why Mercedes-Benz went out of their way to offer both Pre-Safe Brake and Distronic Plus technology. What do they offer? Basically, whenever the vehicle senses that an accident is about to occur, it will automatically start to initiate about 40% braking power. It will also audibly alert the drive, followed by engaging the Pre-Safe system. Should the driver fail to respond, the vehicle will apply 100% braking power on its own in order to help reduce the impact of a collision.
Night View Assist Plus
When driving through North Carolina at night, it can be difficult to notice upcoming obstacles in the road. But thanks to Mercedes-Benz’s Night View Assist Plus technology, this will no longer be an issue. Using a special camera and invisible infrared beams, drivers will be able to view a real-time view of a dark road. This becomes especially useful for avoiding pedestrians or animals on very dark nights.
With that being said, most Mercedes-Benz vehicles come with active full-LED headlamps. These are designed to generate the most amount of power when driving at night. These 72 light-emitting diodes will also reconfigure themselves to form patterns based on other traffic, the vehicle’s speed, and even the driver’s steering habits. Staying safe on dark nights becomes much more convenient with Mercedes-Benz safety features like this.
Active Lane Keeping Assist and Active Blind Spot Monitoring
When driving through Charlotte, accidents can occur from any direction. This is why Active Blind Spot Monitoring was created - to help detect vehicles alongside yours that you may have otherwise missed when looking in your rearview mirror. Lane Keeping Assist technology will keep track of your driving, and when it sense that you’re drifting outside of your line, will cause the steering wheel to vibrate. It may even apply brakes to a single side of the vehicle to slowly bring you back into your own lane.
Adaptive High Beam Assist
Finally, with Adaptive High Beam Assist will have access to a specialized camera that will scan the road ahead for the lights being given off by other vehicles. Based on the calculations that it receives, it will maximize its own illumination while ensuring that it doesn’t create an unwanted glare to oncoming vehicles. This is an essential safety feature that not only protects you but also other drivers on the road. Visit Mercedes-Benz of South Charlotte to learn more about these safety features and take a test drive in an all-new Mercedes-Benz vehicle with the latest Mercedes-Benz Safety Features.
