Mercedes will reveal the new E-Class on April 25

The latest ‘conventional’ model from Mercedes is just days away from its final presentation. The E-Class will have plug-in hybrid versions with great range and high performance. Throughout the history of Mercedes, which is already more than 120 years, we have seen many different models wearing the emblematic star of the house. However, Class E is one of the most famous and important sagas of all. Converted into a benchmark saloon, it still has many years of life ahead of it. It will be the last traditional model of the house. The next generation, the sixth, will be the last to offer combustion versions, although a wide deployment of electrified units is also expected for said iteration.

Since the beginning of the year, Mercedes has been giving us small previews of what the new E-Class will be like. Of course, certain details and elements cannot be missing, such as quality and equipment. In February, the first images of its interior were revealed. Borrowing the presentation of the Mercedes EQE, the saloon will be able to offer a fully digital dashboard segmented into three different areas: instrumentation, main multimedia system, and passenger multimedia system. All integrated into the already famous MBUX Hyperscreen that was released with the EQS.

The gap between the digital world and the automotive world will continue to narrow thanks to the integration of applications such as TikTok, Zoom, or AngryBirds. Mercedes wants the sedan to be an extension of the mobile itself and its latest-generation operating system will allow that connection. The screens will be accompanied by a high-quality finish, something which Mercedes must improve since it has been surpassed by other premium firms in the market, mainly BMW. There will be no lack of sustainability details such as upholstery made from recycled materials.

Currently, the E-Class reaches a height of 4.92 meters in length. Speculations point to the new generation maintaining the proportions, although a slight increase in measurements is not ruled out. The platform is completely renewed and will be able to integrate state-of-the-art electrified systems. A large and varied mechanical fleet is expected where plug-in hybrid versions (PHEV) take center stage. With battery formats above close to 30 kWh of gross capacity, the engineers hope to standardize an electrical range of more than 120 kilometers.

It will not be long before we can know every one of the details of the new Mercedes E-Class. Although everyone assumed that its official presentation was going to take place at the Shanghai Motor Show (China represents a significant volume of sales for Mercedes), it will not be so. The official revelation will take place next April 25 at 5:00 p.m. in an international event that can be followed digitally by those who want to see the event at the following link.

New KIA e-Niro already has a price in Spain

Image
A few months after its official presentation, KIA opened the order books for the new e-Niro in Spain. The revamped compact SUV, which now sits on the K3 platform already seen in the latest Hyundai Elantra, is slightly longer (6.5 centimeters) than its predecessor and  debuts a completely revamped exterior and interior design . However, mechanically there are not too many changes. The second-generation KIA e-Niro is equipped with a 204 hp (150 kW) and 255 Nm engine coupled to the front axle, thanks to which it can complete the 0 to 100 km/h in 7.8 seconds. Its battery pack will have a capacity of 64.8 kWh, enough to approve a maximum of  463 km WLTP  (its official consumption is 15.9 kWh/100 km), a minimal improvement compared to the 455 km WLTP achieved by its predecessor which tells us that, despite the use of a new platform, the powertrain is likely to be very similar. As for the load, for the moment it has only been revealed that it  will take 43 minutes to go from 10 to 80%  conn

VW thinks price war in China will lead to many bankruptcies

Image
Ralf Brandstätter, CEO of the Volkswagen Group in China , believes that the electric car market is “overheating”, with high investments and aggressive discounts that could threaten the stability of the sector. In particular, he points out that the pressure to which some manufacturers are subjected could lead to their demise. This situation mainly affects younger brands: according to the manager, many new players will urgently have to seek additional capital investment, or else they will go  bankrupt in the short term .  “We are facing a situation where the market is overheating. The consolidation of the playing field is in full swing. Although without making direct mention of Tesla, Brandstätter  is very critical of the price war that has rocked the Chinese market in recent months .  “Currently, there are more than 120 automakers in the [electric vehicle] market, and around 150 new models will be launched by 2023. Intense competition and high battery prices make them face strong econ
