The launch of new models is not only extremely important to a car company, but the launch of many first-tier brands also has a profound impact on the development of the entire automobile industry. The launch of some representative new cars will not only increase the competitiveness of car companies, but will also lead the development of the entire automobile industry.

For example, the three Mercedes-Benz models I want to share with you today are each very representative:

Mercedes?-AMG?ONE

The first Mercedes-Benz model I want to share with you today is a performance supercar that Mercedes-Benz fans have been looking forward to in recent years. At the same time, it is also the first of the three cars to be introduced to you today to meet consumers. New car.

It is the production version of the concept model Mercedes-AMG Concept ONE launched by Mercedes-Benz in 2017--Mercedes-AMG ONE. A true supercar.

Just by looking at the name, you can tell that this is a performance supercar with cross-generational significance. The character that dares to call it "AMG" ONE is definitely not simple. Mercedes-AMG ONE is different from many new energy supercars. It definitely does not represent simple stupidity, but a perfect interpretation of high-end automotive research and development technology.

We can understand the Mercedes-AMG ONE as an F1 racing car that can be legally driven on the road, because many of its technologies come from the original F1 racing car. Not only does it have an exaggerated dynamic design appearance, but the power system is also similar to that of an F1 racing car.

Mercedes-AMG ONE is equipped with a 1.6L V6 turbocharged engine from the Mercedes-Benz F1 racing car, which together with four motors forms an extremely A violent hybrid system.

The entire power system can produce a comprehensive output power of 1,200 horsepower. It only takes 2.5 seconds to accelerate from 100 kilometers to 100 kilometers, and the top speed exceeds 350km/h.

Because the Mercedes-AMG ONE is equipped with a real F1 racing engine, the speed limit of this engine has exceeded 11,000 rpm. This is also a mass-produced car. The "red turn" record is a true "million turn machine".

According to the latest news from foreign media, the Mercedes team’s current legendary F1 driver Lewis Hamilton (Lewis Hamilton) is currently using his vacation to participate in the Mercedes-Benz race. Testing of the AMG ONE.

In addition, foreign media also exposed a large number of pictures of real cars testing disguised Mercedes-AMG ONE on the track. According to the pictures, it can be seen that the appearance of the Mercedes-AMG ONE production model has been adjusted compared to the prototype. The most obvious one is that the exhaust layout at the rear has been changed from the original three central outlets to four central outlets. .

Except for these small-scale adjustments, the overall exterior design of the Mercedes-AMG ONE is basically the same as the prototype. The front face is almost covered by the entire air intake grille, and the large-sized active variable rear wing and other designs are all designed to meet its dynamic requirements.

Although the price of Mercedes-AMG ONE is as high as US$2.75 million (approximately RMB 18.02 million), which is higher than the sales price of the legendary supercar Porsche 918 that year. The price is more than three times higher, but this does not affect the rich people's love for it.

The global quota of 275 units (with a domestic limit of 7 units) has already been sold out, and the new car is expected to be delivered as soon as the second quarter of next year.

Mercedes-Benz EQE

Although the second new Mercedes-Benz car in today’s protagonist is slightly inferior to the Mercedes-AMG ONE, it is closer to us. It is also a more meaningful model. It is Mercedes-Benz's latest pure electric model? EQE, but the current information about it is not clear.

The above picture is a rendering of EQE exposed by overseas media. Although some overseas media have captured test camouflage pictures of EQE, many details are still unclear due to the serious camouflage. .

However, based on this information, we have been able to confirm some of the design of the EQE, such as its new fastback design style.

In addition, according to limited information, it can be found that the Mercedes-Benz EQE does not use the hidden door handles on the prototype, but the design of the front face is a new family design style similar to the prototype. , the closed front face still does not forget to add the unique logo of the electric family.

The Mercedes-Benz EQE is a very important pure electric product for Mercedes-Benz in the future. It is equivalent to the pure electric model of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class and will directly compete with the Tesla Model S in the future. .

The new car will be produced based on Mercedes-Benz's new electric vehicle architecture - EVA - platform. In a sense, it will directly affect Mercedes-Benz's future design of pure electric cars.

It is worth mentioning that Mercedes-Benz has currently registered three trademarks: EQE 43, EQE 53, and EQE 63 in Europe, and these three trademarks are mainly used for the AMG department. Among the electrified models, one will directly compete with the BMW M5 EV for the share of luxury electric performance cars.

Mercedes-Benz? EQR? AMG

The third model I want to share with you today is still a pure electric product of Mercedes-Benz. Compared with the first two, this car is not as powerful. Believable. But it also represents a planning possibility for Mercedes-Benz's R-class products, which is Mercedes-Benz's EQR AMG.

The Mercedes-Benz EQR AMG is a concept car designed by the famous Turkish designer Emre Husmen based on some exposed information of the Mercedes-Benz R-Class. The designer also He once designed a hypothetical drawing of a Tesla pickup truck.

There have been a lot of news about Mercedes-Benz’s new R-class in recent times, but none of them have been confirmed yet. Although there will be a gap between the designer's work and the true appearance of Mercedes-Benz's new R-Class in the future, there is indeed a lot of news recently indicating that the direction of Mercedes-Benz's new R-Class is pure electric, and the Mercedes-Benz R-Class once had a A large number of fans of R63AMG.

Mercedes-Benz R 63 AMG

According to the rendering information published by this designer, the design of Mercedes-Benz EQR AMG is full of futurism, but there are many details Basically, they are all in the style of the Mercedes-Benz sports family.

For example, its front face shape is very similar to that of Mercedes-Benz AMG GT. At the same time, the design of the car logo also incorporates the latest Mercedes-Benz electrified design style.

The body shape between "SUV" and "MPV" is indeed very consistent with the positioning of the Mercedes-Benz R-Class, and through the exaggerated body lines, large-size wheels and roof racks, it With the details, the whole car is full of a very elegant and sporty atmosphere.

Judging from the news that has been frequently exposed recently, Mercedes-Benz’s development in electrification is indeed much faster than we have seen and guessed.

This also proves from the side that new energy is an insurmountable shortcut for the entire automobile industry to move towards the future. Luxury brands have already been working silently behind the scenes. When the time is right, these luxury brands will make great efforts in electric products. Still has the brand advantage.
