Concept Mercedes X Class Design and Overview – Video
“Once the next version of the truck comes out – when we see the next iteration – there might be an opportunity to bring it in the medium and long-term”, Exler commented. “We want to bring it when we believe it makes sense as Mercedes to bring out the pickup truck.”
In the meantime, the X-Class is getting ready to make transition from concept to production, using Nissan’s expertise in the field. The premium workhorse shares the same nuts and bolts with the Navara, but benefits from retuned suspension on both ends and adds an unique cabin layout, inspired by other models in the company’s lineup.
The first units of the Mercedes-Benz X-Class should be seen on Europe’s roads late next year, followed by South America in 2018.
