The Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class is an essential model for the brand. It started as the M-Class that came out in 1997, and four generations later, it runs as the GLE, pipped only by the mighty G as the longest-standing SUV in the Mercedes-Benz line-up. Now, the fourth-gen model gets a facelift in the form of the 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLE.
Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class brought some style to the lower end of the Mercedes-Benz range back in 2013. The little 4-door coupe still exists in the Merc line-up, despite the availability of a more practical A-Class sedan. The 2024 Mercedes-Benz CLA Class brings minor updates to improve its appeal.
While the 2023 Mercedes-AMG S 63 E Performance stretched the performance envelope of the “World’s best car”, a new offering raises its luxury ceiling. For those who think the regular S-Class Maybach is not opulent enough, here is the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class Haute Voiture.

Engine downsizing is now the new normal. The big numbers, V12s and V8s are all on their way out, making room for smaller capacity engines. The latest, arguably one of the most controversial entrants to this list, is the 2023 Mercedes-AMG C63 S E-Performance that ditches a throaty V8 for an electrified 4-cylinder but with more power than ever.
Mercedes-Benz GLC is an essential model for the brand, as it is one of their main revenue generators. The popular compact crossover now enters its second generation, or third if you count the GLK, with a slightly larger body, improved interiors, and new powertrains.
Mercedes-AMG electrification continues with yet another launch. Once known for their explosive petrol engines, the brand is now focusing on electric cars. The recently launched Mercedes-Benz AMG 53 is an example of this move. But it also has a less-powerful sibling, the AMG EQE 43.
After what seems like the longest gestation period in automotive history, the much-hyped Mercedes-AMG ONE (unveiled at the 2017 Frankfurt motor show) is finally on the verge of being a production reality, with deliveries of the limited-edition hypercar commencing in the second half of this year.
The first month of 2022 was relatively quiet in the automotive recall circus. But though we only had a few recalls in the past month, most of the affected large numbers of vehicles. Here is the list.
