2019 Mercedes-Benz CLS 53 AMG - What Can You Expect On First Drive

You would have heard of the term ‘what goes around comes around’ and the 2019 Mercedes-Benz CLS 53 AMG is a perfect example of the age old saying. You would be surprised to know that the ‘inline-6’ that was concealed under its hood in 1926 has made a comeback in the form of "3.0-liter inline-6 engine" along with ‘forced induction’ making it the hallmark of the latest offering that you will be certain to get at an authorized dealership of Mercedes-Benz Greensboro NC. 

The CLS 53 comes with a bigger boost power that enables its engine to go up to ‘29 horsepower’ and attain a whopping ‘384 pound-feet torque,’ a feat that surpasses the previous model CLS 450 considerably. The manufacturers have proudly claimed that the additional boost will help the AMG to go up to 60 miles per hour much quickly as compared to CLS 450 thanks primarily to its system of forced induction.

It is pretty obvious to the driver taking the car out for a test drive that the claim of attaining the speed within 4.4 seconds is justified. The starter generator gets to spool up the compressor rapidly thereby reaching the optimum horsepower within 6100 r.p.m. conveniently. Amazingly, the engine does not have to drive up any of the accessory systems, instead everything right from the water pump, AC, auxiliary power and even the boost are controlled electrically.

Moreover, the Mercedes-Benz does not have the steady rumbling throaty sound as its engine revs up. On the contrary, it comes with a rich and deep seated induction sound that stems from the exhaust button set to the ‘powerful’ mode.

However, as an adult who has remained in control of his life, you would be pleased to find the CLS 53 much more fuel efficient than any of the similar vehicles manufactured by its competitors. With an average fuel consumption of 27.6 mpg it certainly exceeds the expectation both on highways and in heavy traffic situations.

You are likely to experience the benefits of inline-6 that makes it feel much lighter as well as more agile and nimble allowing you to weave in and out of traffic easily enough. Negotiating the curves and turning corners can be a breeze thanks to its flatter braking system.

Be prepared to be awed by the first drive as the AMG is mainly positive. However, the lack of power shift speed may be only negative that a trained technician at Mercedes Benz service center would be able to appraise you of before you try to test drive it.

Mercedes E-Class Receives New Engines & Minor Changes for 2019 Model Year

With new assistance systems, the E-Class performs as good as the S-Class, explains technicians of Mercedes-Benz Greensboro NC. For the new model year, it receives some new extras such as a sports style package, new interior options an fresh wheel designs.

The previous V6 diesel has been replaced by a new straight-six diesel OM 656 which generates massive power between 3,600 and 4,400 rpm. At 1,200 rpm, the in-line six produces 700 Newton meters, which remain available up to 3,200 rpm. The acceleration is determined at 4.9 and 5.1 seconds, the maximum speed is restricted to 250 km/h. The consumption is rated between 5.5 and 6.1 liters/100 km, the CO2 emissions between 145 and 161 g /km.

In addition to the new engines, Mercedes also features a facelifted steering wheel: as in other models, the controls for the cruise control can be now found in the left-hand steering wheel spoke. The tempomat now also eats up map data, so for example can screech to a halt before curves and roundabouts.

The sport style package comes embellished with chrome elements in front and rear bumpers, tailpipe trims and 17-inch light weight wheels in 10-spoke design. The interior features of the sports package include a black inner sky, black open-wood ash on the center console and aluminum pedals with rubber studs.

The Mercedes-Benz GLC Revamps Banishing the Boxy Build of the Predecessors

The very first launch of the Mercedes-Benz GLK was not that appealing as one expected from the brand. As it inherited the tall and upright performance of the G class, and had the boxy cabin behind, the absence of the space was not just felt, but also visible. The compact luxury crossover is generally supposed to have a bit lavishness well packed in a neat and petite package. Whereas the GLK seemed to be austere and upright, the design that the GLC of Mercedes-Benz Greensboro NC followed was sober, and had the refined elegance in it's touches beneath the solid structure. The large wheel and the aggressive stance that it shows up on the road have been successful in appealing the women, and the inherent style that it possesses makes it bring out the essence of the premium crossover.

But Mercedes-Benz thought of making it better like any other brand and hence the latest version of the GLC is almost 20 inches longer than its predecessor. The designers have been really keen in working technically on this extra space, and made sure that it reaches the second row. So the leg space gets a room of 2.2 inches more and one can find some stretchable area within as well. Even the rear seats have become wider and no longer do the passengers get their shoulders rubbing against each other. Like the Sedan sibling that it has in the market, the GLC can also be opted with the real wheel or the all wheel drive which is powered by the 2.0 liter 4 cylinder turbocharged engine which efficiently produces 241 horsepower mated with a nine speed transmission.

Apart from the ride height, the GLC looks almost familiar with the new Mercedes C class that has floored the entire market. Just like the C class, the GL even boasts the lavish interior along with the updated instrument panel and the latest I-pad like infotainment panel. Most of the technicians who've been working on Mercedes-Benz repair for ages have all good words about the steering that has been ideally weighed and the suspension that balances the ride versus handling equation with no harshness on the impact. What has been very strategic on Mercedes' part is they've named all their crossovers beginning with GL, and the final letter denotes where actually the model fits in their line up. This particular version is being underpinned with the sedan C class and hence name the GLC. It's worthy of the luxury crossover for the middle class to ride.
