Mercedes Launches New SL At Gardens By The Bay

IN Mercedes, SL, Mercedes-Benz, Daimler Chrysler, 500 SL, 350 SL

You might have to get used to the looks, but the new SL is lighter, faster, more luxurious and promises to be even more agile that its predecessor.

The characteristic lines of the exterior design indicate both of these attributes: front and rear sport a width-emphasizing design, with a wide, prominent grille and headlamps extending along the sides at the front while the rear end features a wide rear window, two-piece tail lights with horizontally offset meander and a large tailgate with low loading sill. The new B-Class measures in at 4,359 mm long, 1,786 mm wide and 1,557 mm tall.

White Hot | Maximus Racing Mercedes C63 AMG

IN Maximus Racing, Mercedes, AMG, C63, Akrapovic,

We take a look at Maximus Racing's latest handiwork, an enhanced Mercedes AMG C63. Added power and subtle styling upgrades are enough to make this otherwise standard AMG 'White Hot'!

He has bought and sold numerous cars over the years. To make way for the CLS 350 you’re seeing here, he had to let go of a Bimmer. “Saw it once, and I just fell in love with it immediately”.

The new generation CLS by Mercedes-Benz is rare; finding a kitted one - like this fine example here - is just like finding a needle in a haystack

E for Eco | Mercedes-Benz E250 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY CoupÃ©

IN Mercedes-Benz, E250, CDI, BlueEFFICIENCY, Coupe

How well will svelte coupÃ© style blend with diesel power? We just had to find out.

It might look similar to the sedan, but the coupÃ©’s roof is slightly lower. Like the sedan, it has B-pillars — though we would prefer not having it, like the more expensive E-Class coupÃ©. Other than that little niggle, it is hard to fault the C-Class coupÃ© in the looks department. Mercedes-Benz has pulled off a bold look that isn't brash and elegant without being overly swoopy. Plus, those 18-inch AMG wheels just looks perfect!

What Took Them So Long? | Mercedes-Benz C 250 BlueEfficiency CoupÃ©

IN Mercedes-Benz, C, 250, BlueEfficiency, Coupe

Mercedes-Benz has gone all-out to promote the new C-class to the younger buyers.

One point is all that separates Sebastian Vettel from his second successive Drivers’ World Championship after the 24-year-old German and his Red Bull Racing team claimed their first victory on Singapore’s Marina Bay Street Circuit on Sunday.

Vettel claims first win in Singapore — with only a point from the title!

With such power, it is a wonder how Mercedes-Benz and AMG have boasted a fuel consumption of just 11.9km/l. The trick is the cylinder shut-off function, activated when the driver selects transmission mode

If you thought the C63 AMG was mad enough, say hello to the most powerful C-Class ever!

But then, due to the current COE trend, such premium sedans are becoming even harder to reach — case in point, the “base model” Audi A4 1.8T, BMW 318i and Mercedes-Benz C180 costs $193,773, $178,800 and $189,800 respectively.

All Grounds Covered | Volkswagen Passat

Volkswagen promises value in a premium package with their new Passat, but the question is, can it really deliver the goods?

So both Mercedes-Benz and BMW were seeing success stories. However, it was totally different for Audi - although the current A6 (still for sale in the market) is considered a relevant competitor, that aging shape didn’t go well with buyers in this segment.

Together with the optional high-resolution colour display in the instrument cluster, the new dashboard with its elegant, grained surface and prominent decorative trim emphasises the premium character of the interior. The restyled dashboard features an enhanced trim concept and a new instrument cluster featuring an integral display, which is in colour with the optional 12-button steering wheel.

Mercedes-Benz Launches The New C Class

IN Mercedes-Benz, C, Class, AMG, V6, V8

Bristling with youthful energy, it's clear where this car's soul is.

In third place, Martin Tomczyk became the best-placed driver of a 2008-spec car and thrilled the spectators with spirited attacks and overtaking manoeuvres. His efforts were rewarded. In the points’ standings, he is currently third behind Rockenfeller. British driver Jamie Green lost his second place at the start and was also overtaken by Tomczyk during the race. The Mercedes-Benz driver finished fourth ahead of two times’ DTM champion Timo Scheider (Audi). Audi driver Edoardo Mortara from Italy already scored his first-ever championship points by finishing sixth in his second race. He was followed by Maro Engel (Mercedes-Benz) and Mattias EkstrÃ¶m with the Audi A4 DTM. The Swede started 16th and still scored one point by finishing eighth.

Maiden Victory For Mike Rockenfeller At Zandvoort

IN DTM, 2011, Zandvoort

In his 44th DTM race, Mike Rockenfeller scored his long overdue maiden victory in his 44th DTM race.

The sides of the roadster are robustly built, not primarily for crash protection, but also to enhance the driving dynamics. Together with a beefed up cross-member with additional supporting struts at the windscreen frame, centre tunnel and between the soft top and the fuel tank, this makes the car very rigid.
