Preview: Mercedes-Benz S-Class

This is the new Mercedes-Benz S-Class. It is the most important car of the 2013, and is likely the most important car of the next five years. Yes, we’re serious. You see, the S-Class is genesis when it comes to production-ready technologies. If an option exists on your car, it was probably pioneered by the S-Class. In the unusual case that it wasn’t born in an S-Class, than this Teutonic limo probably perfected it.

Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept Leaks Ahead Of Shanghai

This is the Mercedes-Benz GLA Concept, and yes, it’s going to end up being another small, urban crossover. Think Land Rover Range Rover Evoque with a three-pointed star on the nose. The images, uncovered by Carscoop, detail a small vehicle, less than 16 feet long and barely over five feet tall. Riding on 20-inch wheels, it looks rather stylish, with a design language that is more organic than the edge Range Rover Evoque.

Winding Road Video: 2013 Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG – POV Test Drive

The Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG is a perennial favorite among the Winding Road staff. It’s a fast, stylish, and muscular vehicle that we never get tired of driving. In fact, we enjoyed our last CLS so much that we had our own Chris Amos put together this POV driving video. We strongly recommend watching it with headphones on.

Look, there a number of reasons for us to post Mercedes-Benz’s Super Bowl ad. Of course, there’s the striking (and affordable) CLA-Class. There’s also Kate Upton, William Dafoe, Kate Upton, and Usher. There’s also Kate Upton.

Review: 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class

Back in December, Mercedes-Benz unveiled its updated E-Class Sedan and Wagon. Now, we’ve gotten our first look at the sportier-looking Coupe and Cabriolet. Immediately noticeable on all four variants are the new headlights. The dual lamps that have identified the E-Class for the past several generations have been replaced with a unit that is more in keeping with current design language.

Driven: 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL350 Bluetec

By our reckoning, the GL350 with Mercedes-Benz’s excellent 3.0-liter, turbodiesel V-6 is the pick of the litter. Yes, there’s much to be said for the GL’s excellent V-8 options. Both the GL450 and GL550 are powered by biturbocharged V-8s, with the 450 packing 362 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque and the GL550 offering up 429 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque. We’d also need to give a shout out to the bonkers (and completely unnecessary) GL63 AMG and its 550 ponies.

Quick Drive: 2013 Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG

Some cars just fail to make impressions on us. It’s not all that uncommon. Through some conspiracy of dull looks or lackluster performance or a middling interior, occasionally we just don’t have much to say. The Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG is the complete opposite.

Driven: 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL550

During this author’s nearly three-year tenure, we’ve had no more ostentatious of a car in the office (that’s including the Aston Martins, Ferrari, and Porsches), thanks in large part to that stealthy matte gray paint job. This is more than just a skin-deep car, though. It’s the 2013 SL550. With respect to the awe-inspiring SLS AMG Roadster, the SL is the flagship. It’s the car that comes to mind when someone says “Mercedes-Benz convertible.” And it’s an indelible sign of wealth.

First Look: 2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series

Want a Winding Road car-buying tip? Never, ever, ever buy a new Mercedes-Benz supercar. Why, you ask? Because there will always be a better version right around the corner. It is this feeling of regret that is probably striking a number of SLS AMG GT buyers, as the all-new SLS AMG Black Series hit the stage in LA.

Quick Drive: 2013 Mercedes-Benz SLK350

Oddly, we’ll start out our analysis of the SLK with a pricing argument. Our SLK350 had a starting price of $55,400. That price compares favorably with the $60,900 Boxster S and the $55,150 Z4 sDrive35i. After doing a bit of damage on the options list, the as-tested price had climbed to $67,020, and resulted in a car with the trick Magic Sky Control, Lighting Package, Multimedia Package, and Sports Package, among smaller goodies. It’s here where the SLK pulls ahead of its competitors. The Z4 lacks items like Airscarf, Magic Sky Control, and air-conditioned seats. The Boxster, meanwhile, is hurt by Porsche’s extensive (and pricey) options sheet. You’ll get a Boxster exactly as you want it, but it’ll like cost a lot more than our SLK.
