Exterior design Mercedes GLC 2016

We can say that the model from the new GLC series has changed significantly in comparison with its predecessor. If you remember that the previous forms of the car were a little angular, however, this beauty has smooth lines on the body, and general form seems ultra stylish and at the same time rational.

Mercedes GLK in a new body, front and rear view

The designers even added a certain look of a sports car. Expressive wheel arches, of course, are not designed for good cross-country ability, because this is an SUV, but such a relief design testifies to the nature of the car.
The radiator grille and headlights look more expressive, but by no means harsh, besides, everything is done in the corporate style of a famous brand.

The interior of the Mercedes Benz GLC 2016-2017

If you look inside the brand new model, you can see significant changes. Probably the most striking change in the interior will be the steering wheel.

Dashboard of the new GLC 2016

On the top of the center console, you can see a screen of the advanced Comand system working online. The diagonal of the display is not a lot of 8.4 inches.

The trunk of the 2016 Mercedes GLC has become more spacious,

The only reduction compared to the previous model is the ground clearance, now it is 181 millimeters. However, the manufacturers have thought of everything, and you can fix this drawback by purchasing an additional air suspension. It makes it possible to adjust the clearance: including the SUV mode, it rises to 277 millimeters, and if you switch to the sport mode, the suspension will drop a little.

Without a doubt, impressive, and now let's talk a little about the history of the brand and, of course, about each of the above models.

History of Mercedes

One hundred and thirty years ago, a self-propelled cart on a gasoline engine was produced, and its inventor Karl Benz filed a patent for his brainchild, thus the first car on three wheels appeared in the world. In 1890, Gottlieb Daimler created a company for the production of four-wheeled vehicles. In 1926, the two companies merged into one, at that time Benz had already produced forty-seven and a half thousand cars off the assembly line, and Daimler had almost one hundred and forty-eight cars. After the merger, the firms successfully used each other's developments, and the company was headed by Ferdinand Porsche.

In 1933, the Mercedes-Benz 200 passenger car and the 380 sports car appeared with engines of two and 3.8 liters. In 1944, during the war, the concern was completely destroyed, cars began to be re-produced in 1946. The company did not forget about the sports direction, so Formula 1 won twice with the W196 model. Then the W198 rolled off the assembly line. The car was produced for American market, as it was too expensive for a European one.

Until the end of the sixties, the whole world knew about the brand, and at the start of the seventies, the company increased the classification of auto roadsters, coupes and station wagons. In 1979, the W126 comes out, which had an innovative aerodynamic design. Ten years later, the R129 is created. In 1995, the firm presents new class auto E. The second half of the 2000s is marked by the appearance of two classes of SUVs. At the moment, the company produces cars of eighteen different classes.

2017 Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 Concept and AMG GT R

Let's start reviewing new auto mercedes 2017 with the Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 Concept. The fact that the car is almost six meters long can be seen from the profile view, which shows the arched engine hood almost as long as the roof. The latter has a fastback rear section that seems to give the car a classic "boattail" look, especially considering how the rear fenders curve towards the bumper and the near-V-shaped rear fascia. While the red-painted wheels and front grille fender are massive, the roof sits very low and gives the coupe a soft-topping stance. There are thin cameras instead of traditional side mirrors.

Photos Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 Concept 2017

Moving on to the front of the car famous badge on the hood and on the grille. The grille has a massive, chrome-plated look. Similar styling we've seen on previous Maybach sedans, but it also seems to be a sort of nod to the company's vehicles it built in the 1930s. The chrome strips that can be seen on each side of the hood also remind some of the pre-war models, such a little digression into history. The headlights have very thin LED strips, a feature we often see on every other Mercedes model. At the bottom there is a large chrome part for the splitter, two large air intakes just below the grille, as well as fog lights on the sides of the bumper.

The rear of the car is simple, but at the same time spectacular and stylish. LED lighting has been applied here, with slender taillights extending across the entire front panel. The red light is reflected by a chrome strip in the bumper, which also has small air intakes similar to those we saw up front. Two chrome strips that start at the front cover ran down the coupe's waist almost to rear lights, thus emphasizing the neo-retro style of the car. A central, so-called fin, descends from the roof towards the rear Mercedes emblem, dividing the rear window into two planes, a design inspired by models from the thirties and the glorious Art Deco era. The car is rounded off by a pair of massive doors, and the set includes twenty-four-inch rims. They have aerodynamic rims from the IAA concept and body-coloured and clear shields that provide a view of the aluminum spokes.

New AMG GT R 2017

Judging by the photo of the new 2017 Mercedes AMG GT R series, the styling is immediately noticeable, which is a significant deviation from the standard GT model. The car has a much more aggressive look and shares many design features with the GT3 racing model. ahead, most characteristic feature is large lattice radiator with vertical slats. Named after the AMG Panamericana, this grille looks like a GT3 and takes us back to the Mercedes 300 SL racing model that won the legendary Pan American Road Race in Mexico in 1952. At the bottom, the model has large side air intakes and a redesigned center vent and splitter. The first includes active aerodynamic elements.

The model received sports wide front and rear fenders, which increase its width by forty-six millimeters. This created room for large twenty-inch wheels, giving the coupe a menacing appearance. Side changes include redesigned side skirts, black mirror caps and lightweight forged rims finished in matte black.

At the back of the car, you will find a fixed rear spoiler to increase downforce on rear axle, large airfoils and a massive double diffuser. One more hallmark models is a large center exhaust tip mounting on the sides with two smaller outlets to the left and right of the diffuser. This is definitely a unique feature.

The menacing design of the sports car features the green paintwork that you may have seen in pictures at the Nürburgring Nordschleife, the race track where the model was tested. Finally, the car is fitted with a high-quality carbon roof that not only complements the flashy paintwork but also reduces the car's curb weight. Naturally, the coupe will be available in a wide range of exterior colors.

The interior also reminds us racing model. While the instrument panel, center console, and B-pillars are virtually identical to the road version, other features have been revised to give the interior a sportier feel. First off, the coupe gets lightweight, manually adjustable sport bucket seats wrapped in Nappa and Dynamic leathers. Another important addition is the new night interior. included as standard equipment, it adds paddle shifters, door sills, as well as a cross-boot element in black.

Mercedes-Benz E-Class Estate and Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe 2017

Just like its predecessor new car The 2017 Mercedes E-Class series is identical to the sedan except for the rear end. And seeing the similarities between class C and E class sedans, we are not surprised, because our model looks more like a station wagon in terms of dimensions. Sure, the model has its own design details at the front and rear, as well as a different roofline, but the visual connection to its smaller cousin is pretty strong.

Mercedes-Benz E-Class Estate 2017

Compared to the C-Class, the E-Class has a more utilitarian stance towards the rear. While the smaller body model has a sloping roof towards the tailgate, the station wagon comes with a Boxier rear section. Those who prefer the sleek looks of the 3rd generation (2002-2009) model will probably be a little disappointed, but those looking for more practical station wagon a medium sized car fits just right.

The car has identical four doors from the nose to the B-pillar, while the body stands out thanks to its long roof, wide shoulders over the rear wheel arches, and different taillights. The latter include a third LED brake light and a wide chrome handle. The taillights are longer and thinner than the previous generation, while the bumper has larger exhaust pipes. These elements give the new station wagon a unique design compared to the sedan.

The luxury model has a classic grille with a star on the hood, while the Sport model can be equipped with a central star on the grille. For anyone who wants to have a car with a sports body, the car is just right.

The model borrows many elements in the interior from the larger brother of the S-class. The instrument panel uses similar cues we've previously seen in the sedan, including technology, a large display in the center.

Among the new devices with analog dials, we highlight the seven-inch screen between them on the model entry level and 12.3-inch screen. There are also two displays of the infotainment system at 8.4 inches and also at 12.3 inches. The new steering wheel with touch keys is truly innovative solution. Latest Feature allows the driver to control the features of the infotainment system using only their fingers. Multimedia comes with upgraded menus and features. It is also worth highlighting the voice control system, commands with rotary dialing, as well as energy-saving LEDs for interior lighting.

mercedes benz GLC Coupe 2017

Review of new cars Mercedes 2017 will continue model GLC Coupe, which will have a dynamic and compact appearance. The headlights are slightly higher than before, but carry the same overall shape and design. The radiator grille in the front of the body has the same style and location of the company logo in the center. Down below, the corner holes in the bezel are slightly smaller, but have the same overall shape. The air intakes are outlined in chrome trim with a black mesh insert in the background, and they and the air vents are the main changes at the front of the car.

From the outside, the car resembles a sports coupe, despite the fact that it sits quite high for its class. In this part, the biggest change is the refined side mirrors, as well as the same concept of the in-line and bottom line. The coupe can be fitted with large wheels that measure twenty-one inches and sit flush with the body.

If we take a closer look at the rear, we notice some significant changes. The taillights are slightly taller and have a thin line of LEDs in the center that serve as reverse lights. The integrated lip on the trunk lid is now more pronounced. Downstairs, the rear fascias have gone through some upgrades. Where previously there were twin tailpipes, there is now a flat surface that softens the design of the stern. A red reflector has been added to each corner, which sits above the slanted rectangular exhaust pipes. The license plate area is recessed into the fascia, and a chrome insert has been installed at the bottom of the fascia around the outlets.

Inside the car we find a rather smooth panel. The driver's side seat for the instrument panel is about an inch higher than the steering wheel, and there's also a circular air vent in each corner of the control panel. The interior offers a two-tone scheme, with brown leather used on the top of the dashboard as well as on the top of the door trim. There are also wood paneling on the doors and on the center console separating the top and bottom. These inserts have a silver look when the interior is decorated in gray color. The optional Sport Package interior option offers sports chairs with faux leather Dynamics, as well as two-tone leather upholstery, similar to the interior in gray tones.

2017 Mercedes-AMG GLC43 4MATIC and CLA

As is the case with most AMG models, there are only subtle differences in the appearance of the new 2017 Mercedes that help distinguish it from the crossover version. Ahead, you'll notice the same hood and headlights. The front grille has a high-gloss black background with chrome pins. This gives the auto emblem a floating design. At the bottom, the air intakes have become a little smaller. On the sides, the vents are the same shape as on the standard GLC, but now there are two grilles on each that are finished in high-gloss black with chrome accents. A chrome-plated front splitter runs the full width of the front panel.

2017 Mercedes-AMG GLC43 4MATIC

The side of the car now has a chrome insert that runs along the side skirts. The mirrors are finished in gloss black like the rest of the model, and there are also side markers on the mirror housings. At the rear, the only significant change is the design of the exhaust pipe and rear diffuser. The latter is painted black and has a chrome strip that runs across the entire width. The outlets now have their chrome insert around them with a vertical flap in the middle. In general, the exterior of the car received a more aggressive body, which is far from being as much as everyone expected.

In the interior, the updates are even less noticeable. The standard circular steering wheel has been replaced by a flat-bottom sports steering wheel to function as a five-and-a-half-inch information display. The AMG badge and chrome inserts have been applied to the bottom of the steering wheel, and you'll notice red contrast stitching on the top. The dials on the dashboard are uniquely numbered with checkered and red trim. As for the seats, we note the improved lateral support, which allows the driver and passenger to keep their body position during more intense car maneuvers. The seats, door trim and instrument panels are leather, and the center console has all those red trim materials. Silver inserts are used on the door trim, the center console has a sharply finished carbon fiber insert that adds sportiness and style to the interior design. By the way, there are several options for choosing the interior of the car.

Photo Mercedes CLA 2017

In continuation of our review of new Mercedes cars, let's talk about the CLA model. Ahead, the lights are about the same as the old design, but that's the only thing that hasn't received a facelift. The hood displays more muscular lines, and the grille is now black with diamond-like highlights with a horizontal grille in the middle. As in other Mercedes models, the design of the symbol seems to float in the center of the grille. The bottom of the fascia has been completely redesigned with corner holes connected across the full width of the bezel. The fascia is in the middle to make room for the air intakes. This option makes the front of the body more elegant.

On the sides, we notice not so many changes. The upper body line extends from the front fender and slopes down towards the rear wheel arch, while the lower body line extends from the center of the entry door and slopes upwards, thereby getting closer to the rear. Looks like the lateral mirrors have been replaced with thinner ones. The developers claim that the rear bumper is new, but it just seems to look more refined than the previous one. The taillights received the same shape, but the location of the lights has changed slightly. The reverse lights have been moved from the bottom of the taillight to the middle, which distinguishes this model from the pre-facelift version. The small vertical holes at the corner of each posterior fascia are still there, but this time they are not of the sinking kind. Trim strip in chrome or black is optionally available between the nozzles. The architraves between the spigots now sit flush with the rear panel and also give the stern a wider look.

The body received a new color, in the form of moon blue. Another build option that is now available on the model has high performance LED lights. These headlights have a color temperature that mimics daylight and has low power consumption. The low beams use projection technology while the high beams use LED reflection technology. The direction indicators and daytime running lights are made from multifunctional fiber optic cables. According to the engineers, none of the bulbs need to be changed during the life of the car, while LED lighting is selected as an option. In addition, an option is available in the premium package that allows you to open the tailgate. luggage compartment leg under the back panel, a feature you've probably seen on many modern crossovers and SUVs.

New E 43 4Matic and C-Class Cabriolet 2017

The turn has come to other new Mercedes cars in 2017, including the E 43 4Matic. At the front, the car is immediately distinguished by a traditional diamond grille with chrome pins, a single chrome grille and a high-gloss black insert. At every corner, there is a wide-mouthed air inlet, which definitely gives the novelty a sporty design. The headlights and hood are borrowed from the E-Class models, and the same can be said about the exterior of the car in profile. The biggest changes that are offered on the sides are nineteen-inch five-twin-spoke wheels, as well as the BITURBO 4MATIC emblem, which is very thin on the front fenders. The flat window on the side is black, as are the roof rails, these are two components that have chrome and silver inserts.

The rear lights have chrome strips that run through the sunroof. Down below, the fascia carries the same design, but the rear diffuser offers a more aggressive look with a black finish. There are exhaust pipes on every corner, which are also finished in black. They are the same shape as the exhaust pipes on the standard model, but have a vertical grille in the middle that creates a dual exhaust port at each corner. Probably, the new model has the same strange curvature at the top as in the previous generation.

Inside the model, the first significant thing you notice is consistency. The interior is mostly black with red accent stitching on the steering wheel, seats, floor mats, center console and door panels, and you'll find soft-touch material just about everywhere. The silver insert stands out on front side dashboard and on each door trim, everything lines up perfectly, creating one of the most beautiful salons that you may have observed. As expected, the novelty has:

three-spoke, flat bottom steering wheel with silver trim on the spokes;
various control keys for the infotainment complex and information system drivers.

The front seats received a sporty design, with increased lateral support. All upholstery is in Artico or Dynamic faux leather, Nappa leather upholstery is available as an option. The door panels and dashboard trim also received an Artico finish. To enhance the interior even further, aluminum sports pedals with black studs and red seat belts are available.

Finally, let's talk about the new Mercedes 2017 C-Class Convertible series. Taking shape from the last S-Class Cabriolet the design language of the new convertible looks very similar to its segment mates. In fact, the cars have almost identical external dimensions, the only thing is that the new model is a little higher.

At the front, we will see the already trendy diamond grille plus standard LED headlights, while LEDs are also used for taillights. Chrome trim is used on the A-pillar, the windshield is 0.6" lower than the sedan for sporty look. Eighteen-inch wheel rims are hidden under the wings. Despite nearly two decades of experience with electro-hydraulic convertible metal roofs, the model will use the classic rag-cloth top, which will no doubt shave off the curb weight and final MSRP a bit. Made from multi-layer material, the top can be opened and closed in less than twenty seconds at speeds up to sixty kilometers per hour. The developers also claim to have designed the roof to keep wind and road noise to a minimum while maintaining cabin temperature. Buyers will get the upper hand in trim:

black in standard assembly;
dark brown;
Navy blue;
or dark red available as an option.

There are also twelve color options for the body.

Inside, you'll find a cabin based on the existing C-Class sedan in terms of interior design and layout, including the driver information display and calibration cluster, a large touchscreen monitor atop the center console, five climate control units (three centrally located, two corners), as well as the seat adjustment buttons. However, there are also some specific features that make a convertible roof an innovative one.

Among them is the AIRSCARF heater, which integrates into the headrests so you can feel warm. The climate control system will circulate hot air through the vents towards the driver's hands, and will also turn off air circulation when the roof is lowered. Also available is a standard manual folding wind blocker behind the front seats.

Finally, we have come to the final part of our review of the new 2017 Mercedes SLC cars. ahead, new roadster has a freshly designed design with notable differences in the front splitter, bumper, air vents, headlights and grille. Daytime Running Lights LED type and were integrated into the headlights in the main assembly. Compared to the outgoing SLK, the front fascia has a sporty design that gives the car an aggressive look, as if it wants to roar at you like a lion. On the base model, the front grille is finished in black with chrome trim. With the addition of the Sport package, the diamond grille will be finished in chrome as seen in the pictures. With the Night package, the mirrors are delivered in high-gloss black. The body itself is very similar to the previous generation SLK, but the design of the front grille makes it a little different.

Mercedes-Benz SLC 2017

On the sides, there are only slight differences between the SLC and SLK. Moving backwards, it is noticeable that the wing of the air vent remains unchanged. A small body line under the air vent runs a little further back on the door. The body line starts at the top of the wheel arch, but comes to a point about halfway through the door. On SLK, the lane continues straight to door handle. At the bottom, the side skirts were a bit thinner. Behind the rear wheel, the bumper is almost completely smooth. The taillights keep the same shape but offer a different design that keeps the reverse lights at the rear with reflectors and side markers on the corner bar.

The rear is almost the same, it includes LED lighting. The lanterns are slightly longer with more rounded points. As seen from the side, the taillights carry the same design as in the SLK, but the lights have been moved to the bottom of the taillight. Instead of having one big red light patch, the SLC has two slanted rectangles and brake lights. The rear panel brings a lot more style to the car. The air vents are in the corners lined up with the bodywork, giving a true 3D look. A reflector has been added above the exhaust pipe. By the way, it is more inclined, a little wider, and a little shorter than the one that was in the previous version. The rear diffuser is also of a simpler design, hitting the underside of the fascia and inner sides exhaust pipe. It also has a chrome finish.
