When will the new body Mercedes gl. New Mercedes GLE unveiled: clutch transmission and active suspension. Exterior design - luxuriously elegant and sporty progressive

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

  • compact crossover GLA, which is produced both with proprietary 4Matic and with front-wheel drive only;
  • small new jeep from Mercedes 2018, the 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 a sporty touch 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 car;
  • the mid-size all-wheel drive SUV, which accounts for the majority of the brand's sales, the 2018 Mercedes GLE model;
  • main BMW competitor X6, Mercedes Benz GLE 2018 coupe with a slick rear;
  • a large, full-size car with a 4x4 drive, designed for 7 seats, the new 2018 Mercedes GLS, after restyling, another letter appeared in the name;
  • and uncompromising, brutal mercedes SUV G class sample 2018, which will celebrate its fourth anniversary in two years,

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

2018 Mercedes GLE name history

Over the years of production, starting in 1997, when sales of a 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 reduction, the car was produced until 2015;
  • and finally, after restyling, the car appeared with the abbreviation GLE, with which the new Mercedes will appear in 2018.

Such was thorny path the search for a recognizable name for a car, which finally ended only by 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 the 2018 Mercedes GLE

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

  • The appearance of the 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 more heavy and overweight;
  • the execution of the frontal part is massive and more embossed: the owners of the car have repeatedly reproached the creators for the incompleteness of the appearance;
  • optics will become more difficult;
  • finally the line rear windows especially carefully hidden, but there is no doubt: the SUV will not lose such a recognizable feature.

Although on the way to the assembly line in the car there will be many different changes.

  • Specifications of 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;
  • permanent four-wheel drive will remain;
  • and of course, one (or more) hybrid versions will be available.

Although making some serious predictions in 2017 regarding the car, the premiere of which is constantly shifting, is a thankless task.

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

In addition, the four deflectors of the ventilation system are clearly visible in the photo, while everything else is hidden from prying eyes. There is a strong feeling that the dashboard is simply not ready yet, and the car was sent for tests “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 not known at all: for now, you can speculate and guess what it will be. But most experts agree on one thing: if it becomes higher than the generation sold today in the back of the W166, it will be very insignificant. The competition in the class is such that the "fork" of 4 million for initial equipment up to 8 plus special versions- this is the limit for Russians who pick up a fashion full-size car with a 4x drive

What will be the sales of GLE from mercedes benz in 2018 and subsequent years, it is too early to say what market share the novelty will take and what will be the fate of the model. Time will show.


"Chain reaction": when will the new GLS Mercedes 2018?

The inextricable connection between the two cars is well traced. And after the debut of the novelty from Mercedes, expected in 2018, the “big brother” will also catch up, Mercedes GLS. However, according to all the canons of the concern, a car that survived not only a name change, but also a restyling in 2015, will have an heir only in 4-5 years. It’s definitely not worth waiting for the new Mercedes GLS in 2018, it will be released much later.

Cautious Update: New 2018 Mercedes Benz G-classe

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

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

The news from Mercedes until 2018 does not end there: we are waiting for a lot of new products. Both special versions of models produced today, and machines created "with clean slate". Which of them will be successful, and which will become an outright failure - time will tell, the work of marketers and the mood of the public, which will have time to get fed up with new products for the whole of 2017.

Mercedes has unveiled its new Mercedes GLE in India, which is expected to bring new perspective in style and content in an elite class highest quality. As Mercedes representatives assure, the new GLE-2018 will be more aggressive, versatile, sporty, and also have greater cross-country ability.
