Giancarlo Perlas January 22, 2023

Mercedes-Benz wagon models only cater to a specific set of buyers in the middle of the SUV-crazed market that we have now. As such, they don’t get as much love as sports cars either, but Vath just turned one Mercedes-AMG E 63 Wagon into supercar levels. There are barely a few signs on the shell of the AMG E 63 Wagon that hints at its tinkering. These seem to be only evident on the decals, lip spoiler, roof-mounted spoiler, and 21-inch wheels hugged by Michelin tires. It also displays a lower stance due to its suspension being adjusted to be 0.7-inch closer to the ground. It should be noted that… Continue Reading »

Mercedes-Benz E-Class All-Terrain 4×4² Goes Extreme

Giancarlo Perlas October 3, 2018

The Mercedes-Benz E-Class Wagon is a nice family car but it is not built for off-roading. Even in its All-Terrain guise, is not designed for extremely rugged terrains—despite what its name suggests. However, if you turn it into a Mercedes-Benz E-Class All-Terrain 4×4², that’s a different story altogether. The 4×4 squared setup may have worked in the Mercedes-Benz G500 4×4², which is a proper SUV, but will it work with the family wagon? Before we get to that, let’s examine what the E-Class All-Terrain 4×4² is all about. The E-Class All-Terrain 4×4² was introduced last year. It was in its prototype build back then and we haven’t heard from it ever since…. Continue Reading »
