Select Mercedes-Benz Model For Clearance Prices

Mercedes-Benz traces its origins back to the world’s first automobile, and based on the brand’s tagline today — “the best or nothing” — the company feels that other carmakers might as well still be back in 1886. With the most history and heritage in the industry, this German luxury marque enjoys a global reputation for meticulous engineering, decadent comfort levels, and elegant styling.

Mercedes has typically faced off against fellow German BMW, with Benz vehicles being the more relaxed and comfortable while BMWs are more performance-minded. But Mercedes-Benz has taken great strides to provide sublime driving experiences — particularly from its souped-up AMG line, but also in its less exhilarating models — in addition to plush, hushed cabins and the latest technological advancements.

Buyers can choose among a full lineup of sedans, crossovers and SUVs, and even coupes and convertibles. The S-Class full-size sedan (now with an extra-elite Maybach variant) is almost the default choice for world leaders and top executives. For the eco-minded, Mercedes sells a plug-in hybrid (the GLC 350e) and has an all-electric crossover on the way (the EQC). For off-road adventurers, the military-ready G-Class stands ready to challenge any vehicle on four wheels when the going gets rough. For thrill-seekers, AMG models can offer more than 600 horsepower — and even the SUVs are available with huge engines and racetrack-ready suspensions. And for a blend of comfort, technology, styl,e, and fuel economy, Mercedes has more affordable four-cylinder engines available on its best-selling models, with prices as approachable as $32,800 for the A 220 subcompact sedan.

Mercedes names its vehicles using a letter to identify their size — generally, the subcompact A, the compact B and C,, the mid-size E, and the full-siz,e S. Sedans’ names start with those letters, while crossovers start with GL (GLB, GLS) and two four-door coupes start with CL (CLA, CLS). Model names like E-Class cover a range of vehicle engines, such as the base four-cylinder E 350, mid-level six-cylinder E 450, and max-performance AMG E 53 and AMG E 63.
