Another year, another round of updates for cars. The latest news about 2019 lineup changes from Mercedes-Benz.

 

For the upcoming year, Mercedes-Benz has a long list of changes coming to the new luxury cars. Because of this long list, the press release is dense with information and I want to break it down as easily as possible for you all. So here’s the breakdown, direct from Mercedes:

 

“Third-generation CLS debuts new coupe style plus in-line six-cylinder turbo powertrain with EQ Boost and 48V electric system

 

Full redesign of iconic G-Class SUV brings greater comfort, luxury, technology and safety, plus enhanced off-road capability

 

First-ever AMG GT 4-Door Coupe offered in three variants

That’s quite the list. The most popular of these changes has to be the new G-Class design, as well as the new AMG GT 4-Door Coupe.
