Hot! Mercedes-Benz, What's Next?

[Pagani]

WTF? Can we have a moratorium on pointless comments?

 

[Merc1]

Can we get a refresher on the reveal schedule? The S is next week, then the GLE GLS and C EV right? GLA?

About as realistic as a BMW supercar.

The VLE (and VLS) is actually a very important car. These days luxury minivans for celebrity and VIP transportation are becoming extremely popular.

High demand for Mercedes GLC EQ.

Things are going well for Mercedes-Benz and its new electric vehicles: demand for its next-generation electric models is experiencing surprisingly strong growth. The new GLC with EQ technology has received far more orders than planned, and the Bremen factory is already operating on three shifts – including Saturday shifts. This means customer wait times are extending until autumn, and the electric GLC is proving to be the first real stress test for the company's new electric strategy.

The GLC EQ is going to be a well-needed homerun for Mercedes.

Lol, good one That said, I do miss the S-Class coupes of the yesteryears

Why doesn’t Mercedes introduce the Extended 50+ Manufaktur colour choices on the FL C-class & FL E-class AMGs like BMW M individual? i’d love seeing a Green Hell Magno C63 or E63 straight from factory.

Absolutely. The CLE color choices are terrible. This would sell more cars imo and be more profitable.

Reading that about GLC orders. Just imagine if the EQE/S vehicles had been striking designs and priced right. Cadillac is the leader seller of luxury EVs in the USA. It would have been Mercedes if they hadn’t messed up so badly with the EQ models.

Really? I knew about their ICE models being really popular but had no idea about the EV’s. I only see the Escalade IQ on social media. How’s the other EV’s doing?

Cadillac's ICE vehicles aren't extremely popular outside of the Escalade. They do decently to poorly depending on the model.

But yes, the Lyriq, Optiq, and Vistiq have been positively received. 40% of Cadillac's sales in Q3 2025 were EVs.

Thanks for the info.

You nailed it

True. All the greens , oranges & blues on the Manufaktur palette would boost sales of C-Class , E-Class & CLE. They shouldn’t only limit them to the top-end models

Yep. @Serpens beat me to the info. No one and I mean no one saw this success coming for Cadillac’s EVS.
