Mercedes held its annual results conference this week, outlining how it intends to become "leaner, faster, and stronger." The theme of its new roadmap is "mastering transformation," and it's not just marketing fluff. The three-pointed star has a busy agenda, which includes planning electric C-Class, GLC, and E-Class models and…

The new M5 has let itself go compared to its predecessor, but some would argue it was a necessary evil. There's still a big V-8 engine under the hood, only this time, it's supplemented by an electric motor built into the gearbox. Turning the super sedan into a plug-in hybrid…

What happened to the convertible? It used to be the ultimate symbol of freedom; top down, wind in your hair, not a worry in the world. But the iconic droptop has all but disappeared over the last decade, with buyers seemingly falling out of love with the idea of unlimited…

In 2022, Mercedes-Benz decided to drop the much-loved twin-turbo V-8 in its AMG C63 in favor of a hybridized four-cylinder powertrain. While the new setup is more powerful and more technologically advanced, it rightfully failed to garner the same excitement as the outgoing car's characterful eight-cylinder. The boss of AMG…

Just take a look at the BMW XM's poor sales; It's easy to criticize BMW for approving the polarizing SUV over a new supercar—but I won't do that. Even if the M division had nearly finished developing an M1 successor, the management team ultimately decided to go with the plug-in…

Mercedes-AMG is building two standalone performance vehicles: A high-powered SUV and a four-door coupe. The duo will use the brand's new AMG.EA architecture, and for better or worse, they'll both be electric.
