During the next semi-annual report Daimler concern The plan for the release of new models for the coming year was announced to shareholders. We are talking about the timing of the appearance of cars on the market, because some of the cars indicated on the chart have already been officially presented: for example, the updated and hydrogen crossover.

So, closer to the spring of 2018, the third generation of the “four-door coupe” will hit the market. Mercedes CLS, and the debut, according to preliminary information, will take place in November of this year. The spectacular sedan is traditionally created on the basis of the Mercedes E-Class - this time. By the way, wait for the new one CLS station wagon Shooting Brake not worth it: the five-door of the previous generation was not in demand and it was decided to abandon it.

Another car of a similar format is scheduled for release in the fall - this time under the Mercedes-AMG sub-brand. Premiere production car should take place much earlier - already in January, at the Detroit Auto Show. A show car with a five-door liftback body allows you to get an idea of ​​the appearance of the four-door. It is assumed that this will be a competitor to the Panamera. Despite sharing a name with the two-door Mercedes-AMG GT supercars, their platform with a rear-mounted gearbox will not be used: future car The chassis will be the same E-class W213 series.

Mercedes-AMG GT Concept

In the spring, the fourth generation of the compact Mercedes A-Class will go on sale, first in the form of a sedan. The appearance can be judged by what was presented in Shanghai. It turned out and interesting detail: It turns out that the smallest Mercedes will have a long-wheelbase version! The release of the stretched sedan is scheduled for the end of 2018. Apparently, this modification is intended for Chinese market. And this is not the only long-wheelbase vehicle that will appear in next year: a stretched version is also planned for release mid-size crossover Mercedes GLC.

Mercedes-Benz Concept A Sedan

The rest of the new products for the 2018 season are not so interesting: these are slightly refreshed versions of the compact C-class and legendary SUV G-class. This means that a completely new Gelendvagen will have to wait until 2019. And another premiere - new van Mercedes Sprinter.

As a rule, any automaker has in its lineup a number of concepts that are equipped with all possible trendy devices and have extravagant appearance and cost a fortune. However, sometimes that premium is... the automaker itself. New Mercedes-Benz models 2018- a vivid example of this.

Everything that comes off his assembly line is inevitably painted with a halo of futurism; the presence of his brand on the body guarantees highest quality, and for a happy owner, owning such a car is a recognized symbol of prestige

Even relatively “stale” models from this manufacturer are quite respectable and desirable. And new products designed for next year’s season quite naturally arouse explosive interest. There is a confident assumption that they will have undoubted success in the car market. And the reasons are obvious: firstly, the brand, and secondly, the models themselves. Therefore, it is proposed to consider the model range of the 2018 season in more detail.

The new product was presented to the general public at the Detroit auto show in early 2017. She was awarded the factory index C238. The lineup The E-Class consists of:

• sedan;
• station wagon in two versions;
• three-door coupe (AMG);
• convertible

Let's try to evaluate various aspects of the updated "E-shki".

Coupe exterior

The appearance of the E-model is something between the C and S classes. At least as far as the body is concerned. The coupe is made elegantly and stylishly, its appearance exudes solidity and confidence, dynamics and style.

Start with the headlights, equipped with semiconductor emitters with a “stardust” effect, and the radiator trim, specially designed for the new models. The rear lights differentiate the light intensity during the day and at night. dark time days.

The aerodynamic characteristics of the body emphasize the predatory, aggressive appearance and contribute to stability during high-speed driving.

Light-alloy wheels (18 inches) extend these advantages and their design is distinctive and original.

2018 car interior

First of all, the dimensions - they set ergonomic possibilities to ensure the comfort of everyone in the cabin. The width of the doorways allows for simplicity and ease of boarding/disembarking without compromising the level of safety.

Immediately attracts attention high level comfort. One can only wonder how everything is provided

At the same time, the interior design is emphasized and distinguished by elegance. The accenting unit is a pair of 12.3-inch touch display: one in the center, the other on the panel in front of the driver.

In the front row of the sports coupe, there are seats with electric position changers, as well as a massage function and ventilation. This is in addition to the now classic electric heated seats. Interior trim - leather of various colors. Plus 64 options background lighting. It's all inside the cabin!

Technical specifications E-class Coupe

Selection power units designed for quite whimsical tastes. The manufacturer has provided three petrol and one diesel engines for this model range:

1. Diesel: volume – 2 liters; power - 194 hp; from 0 to 100 km/h - 7.5 s.; Max. speed - 242 km/h; fuel consumption – no more than 5 l./100 km.
2. Gasoline engines: power - 184, 333 hp. In the future, the AMG version will have turbocharged engine with a volume of 4.0 liters and a power of 571 hp. (and after “pumping” - 612 hp).

The transmission in all model variants is automatic, 9-speed. Traditionally, the drive in basic configurations is rear wheels. Expensive, “advanced” versions have all-wheel drive.

The premiere of the new product took place in Los Angeles. Then the Mercedes-AMG E63 4MATIC sedan appeared in the new W213 body.

However, the intrigue was heating up for a month and a half before the show - the manufacturer regularly “leaked” photos of the new star

Exterior of a sports sedan

The appearance of the updated AMG E63 for the 2017-2018 season is somewhat reminiscent of standard E-class W213, only its image has become more aggressive. What has changed?

• radiator grille (it received a wide rib and vertical slats);
• front bumper received expanded air intakes;
• side “skirts” appeared;
• The basic package now includes a trunk spoiler made of carbon fiber;
• New linings and extended wheel arches appeared on the front fenders.

In addition to the above, the rear bumper of the new model features a diffuser and individual exhaust pipes. The exterior mirror housings are made of carbon fiber. The basic trim levels have 19-inch wheels, while the top trims have 20-inch wheels.

2018 car interior

As expected sports cars, the cabin contains low-lying sports seats and adjustable steering column. The interior is trimmed with leather of the most whimsical colors and shades. In addition, the increasingly popular carbon fiber inserts are used.

The main changes in the interior of the AMG E63 occurred in software, plus the design has changed instrument panel, where the tachometer now takes center stage

Technical specifications AMG E63

The main thing here, of course, is technical stuffing, but it has changed significantly and will come as a surprise to potential buyers. The designers abandoned the 5.5-liter, V-shaped, 8-cylinder twin-turbine engine that had become traditional on these models, replacing it with a more modern model"biturbo" with a displacement of 4.0 liters:

• torque (in base) - up to 750 Nm. On the E63 S, we managed to boost the power unit to 850 Nm.
• power reaches 612 horses.

The dynamic and power characteristics of these power units make the AMG E63 real competitor racing cars. An absolute novelty and surprise was the cylinder deactivation system.

If the load on the motor is below average, and the speed does not exceed 3250, then automatic shutdown four of the eight cylinders (2, 3, 5 and 8). This has a direct impact on saving the engine life of the unit, fuel consumption, vibration and, of course, noise characteristics.

The transmission is equipped wet clutch. The drive was removed from the sedan design rear axle, and all variants are now all-wheel drive. Available is the usual 4-MATIC with 9-band automatic transmission AMG gears Speedshift MCT and manual switching paddle shifters. As a result, acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h reaches 3.3 seconds.

The transmission also has surprises in store: after the torque is transmitted to the wheels, the 4MATIC+ drive control system is activated. It provides variable torque distribution. You can redistribute the torque completely in favor of only the rear wheels (“Drift” mode).

Included basic version The model also includes a differential control system and AMG sports air suspension. However, it does not include the latest carbon-ceramic brakes - but are only available as an option at an additional cost.

Mercedes-Benz GLA

The public was able to see this model back in 2013. She became the first representative of the compact crossover class.

Crossover exterior

Modifications certainly occurred, but it was not plastic surgery. The radiator trim and front bumper have changed the appearance. They added solidity to the exterior. By the way, on the base GLA (220d) there are fog lights round in shape, and the pumped-up configuration (GLA 45) has air intakes instead of headlights.

Exterior is not only an attractive, but sometimes aggressive appearance. This is also drag, which already affects various types of technical indicators, like fuel consumption

So, the drag coefficient of the updated model has decreased. The rear signal lights are made from a set of LED lamps with the fashionable and already common “stardust” effect.

Among the striking features, it is necessary to note the rather large spoiler at the base of the fifth door and rectangular nozzles exhaust pipes, equipped with chrome-plated tips.

The colors, as always, please with a rich variety. Among the innovations here is the “Yellow Night Edition” shade - black with yellow and gray splashes. Also available are Beige Canyon and Yellow Night.

2018 car interior

The multimedia system consists of an 8-inch touch screen(right in the center of the panel) and a Harman Kardon 3D sound system with as many as twelve sound outputs. An active braking system and driver fatigue monitoring are now available as standard.

The front seats, as usual, are more comfortable. The base uses artificial suede as upholstery. The same material was used to trim the steering wheel. Feature GLA interior trim - logos tuning studios on the front seats, plus an emphasis on yellow tones in the paint.

It is a pleasure to have a high level of technical equipment

The Mercedes company has changed the naming standards for its cars from time to time. An example is the emergence of a new generation called GLE, which became a continuation of the class called ML. New Mercedes 2018 GLE coupe a photo, the price of which many are interested in, should be presented as part of the update of all models. The car should go on sale next year. What to expect from the sequel already? popular class ML? What new technologies did the German automaker decide to use when creating this car?

German automakers have always strived to give the world market exactly what was most needed and at the same time accessible to a wide range of consumers. In my opinion, they have completely succeeded and continue to succeed in this matter - as another expected new product from the world proves to us. famous brand- updated five-door A-class hatchback fourth generation. I hasten to add that this model nowhere else...

At the beginning of January this year at the largest car showroom in Detroit, premium German Mercedes-Benz brand presented several of his new products at once. The public showed great interest in the updated compact crossover Mercedes GLA 2018 model year, which received its first restyling three years after entering the market. The improvement of the SUV is reflected in a slight modification of the exterior, changes in electrical equipment, the addition of a new 184-horsepower petrol 4Matic...

At the beginning of 2017, the model range off-road Mercedes-Benz sample 2018 was completely filled. It included:

• compact crossover GLA, which is produced both with the branded 4Matic and with drive only on the front axle;
• small new jeep from Mercedes 2018, GLC model, which, contrary to the expectations and forecasts of skeptics, did not become a “front-wheel drive station wagon with increased ground clearance”;
• an SUV with sporty notes in appearance and corresponding habits, created on its basis, with a sloping stern, which, according to all forecasts, will become a bestseller in our country, the GLC coupe;
• mid-size all-wheel drive SUV, which accounts for the bulk of brand sales, Mercedes model 2018 GLE;
• main BMW competitor X6, Mercedes Benz GLE 2018 coupe with a “slicked” rear end;
• large, full-size car with 4x4 drive, seating 7 seats new Mercedes GLS 2018, after restyling, another letter appeared in the name;
• and uncompromising, brutal Mercedes SUV G class model 2018, which in two years will celebrate its fourth anniversary,

Seven new Mercedes with the letter G in their name: the company enters 2018 fully armed. It will be very difficult for a wealthy client to make a choice (remember the cost of cars).

History of the 2018 Mercedes GLE name

Over the years of production, starting in 1997, when sales of the new mid-size SUV with a three-pointed star on the radiator grille started, the car has already changed its name three times:

• he first appeared as Mercedes M-Class, but BMW rebelled, reserving this letter to designate its charged models;
• then - ML: with this abbreviation the car was produced until 2015;
• and finally, after restyling, the car appeared with the abbreviation GLE, with which new Mercedes will appear in 2018.

That's how it was thorny path the search for a recognizable name for the car, which finally ended only in 2017. Now it fully complies with the designation adopted by the concern for Mercedes models of various branches of the G class, adopted since 2018.

Latest news about Mercedes GLE 2018

In addition to the basic information that in 2017 the model entered final tests and will very soon be presented to the general public, there is fragmentary information about the new Mercedes 2018 and spy photo the following is known:

• Appearance Mercedes GLE 2018 is carefully hidden by camouflage. That's why:
• it will become larger, but at the same time the appearance will not be heavier and bulkier;
• the design of the front part is massive and more prominent: car owners have more than once reproached the creators for the incompleteness of the appearance;
• optics will become more complex;
• finally the line rear windows is especially carefully hidden, but there is no doubt that the SUV will not lose such a recognizable feature.

Although on the way to the assembly line, a lot of different changes will appear in the car.

• Specifications The new Mercedes GLE 2018 is shrouded in mystery. But we still managed to find out something about the W167:
• the car will be built on the MHA platform - the one on which the GLC was created;
• 4, 6 and 8 cylinder petrol and diesel engines will be available;
• constant four-wheel drive will be preserved;
• and of course, one (or more) hybrid versions will be available.

Although making any serious forecasts in 2017 regarding a car whose premiere is constantly being shifted is a thankless task.

• The creators tried to hide the interior of the Mercedes GLE 2018. But the same photographs of the front panel, covered with a shapeless case, clearly show that two large screens (approximately one touch screen) located horizontally will appear on it. It is not yet clear what they will be responsible for, and what functions in the car will be connected to each of them.

In addition, four deflectors of the ventilation system are clearly visible in the photograph, while everything else is hidden from prying eyes. There is a strong feeling that dashboard It’s just not ready yet, and the car was sent for testing “as is”.

• At the same time, the cost of the car, on the basis of which the 2018 Mercedes GLS will then be built, is completely unknown: for now one can speculate and guess what it will be. But most experts agree on one thing: if it becomes higher than the W166 generation sold today, it will be very slightly. The competition in the class is such that the “fork” is from 4 million for initial set up to 8 plus per special versions– this is the limit for Russians looking for a fashionable full-size car with 4x drive

It’s too early to say what sales of GLE from Mercedes Benz will be in 2018 and subsequent years, what market share the new product will occupy and what the fate of the model will be. Time will show.

“Chain reaction”: when will the new GLS Mercedes 2018 be released?

The inextricable connection between the two cars is clearly visible. And after the debut of the new product from Mercedes, expected in 2018, the “big brother” will also catch up Mercedes GLS. However, according to all the canons of the concern, the car, which in 2015 experienced not only a name change, but also restyling, will have an heir only in 4-5 years. You definitely shouldn’t wait for the new Mercedes GLS in 2018; it will be released much later.

Update with caution: new Mercedes Benz G-classe 2018

On the one hand, updating this automobile “dinosaur” was required for a very long time. In 2017, a machine created for the needs of the military decades ago is obsolete in many respects. On the other hand, they do not seek good from good. The popularity and demand of the model in various parts of the world, steady demand, financially supported by the considerable price of the car, forced designers to be especially careful, carefully weighing every step and every decision. After all, the main commandment when creating a new generation of Mercedes G-classe 2018 is to do no harm.

The predecessor of the Mercedes GLS 2018 released today, the X164 model, also claimed to “take the crown” from the classic Gelendvagen. And although the car turned out to be decent in all respects, it does not reach the level of the charismatic G-class. Therefore, development of a successor continues today.

The news from Mercedes until 2018 does not end there: there are still many new products waiting for us. How special versions models produced today, as well as machines created “with clean slate" Which of them will be successful and which will be an outright failure - time, the work of marketers and the mood of the public, which will have had time to get fed up with new products throughout 2017, will tell.
