The automaker previewed its upcoming major platform and powertrain evolutions at a first-look event.
A new era of Mercedes-Benz vehicles is on the horizon. With the lessons from their EQ models' rollout close at hand, the German automaker has chosen 2025 as its line in the sand, a time when the company's priorities will become abundantly clear to its consumer base.The goals for its next-generation vehicles were made public starting with the debut of Vision EQXX, a concept vehicle that prioritized efficiency from its design and aerodynamics down to its powertrain, and beyond.
For example, when traveling at 25 miles per hour, a six-cylinder car may only need to use two cylinders. With four cylinders momentarily not moving, the car's carbon footprint is lowered.Tomorrow's Mercedes engines will work in a similar fashion, but instead of allowing a vehicle to run on less cylinders, the system will disengage the engine and run on pure electric power during certain times, under certain conditions. Other automakers have similar technology.
