Following the mid-cycle update of the S-Class, Mercedes-Benz has announced plans to launch at least 16 new models this year, with seven making their global debuts in just the next three months. The lineup spans from entry-level to flagship vehicles, encompassing gasoline-powered, hybrid, and electric models. Among the upcoming premium gasoline models are the updated Mercedes-Maybach S-Class, refreshed GLS and Mercedes-Maybach GLS, the G-Class Cabriolet, and high-performance AMG V8 models. On the electric front, revised versions of the EQS and EQS SUV will arrive, alongside a potential all-electric AMG high-performance sedan that could replace the GT four-door coupe. The C-Class sedan and estate will receive mid-cycle updates, while the GLC family will also be refreshed—both moves paving the way for the fully electric C-Class slated for 2026. Additionally, the all-new GLA and its all-electric “EQ-technology” variant will debut later this year. Mercedes-Benz is now unifying the design language across its combustion-engine and electric vehicles, moving away from the early EQ models’ distinctive “egg-shaped” styling toward a more mainstream aesthetic. The company also plans to introduce a compact G-Class and a new entry-level model to succeed the A-Class by 2027.
