The Mercedes-Benz C-Class, typically a benchmark in luxury compact sedans, now gets an all-important electric variant. The new C 400 4MATIC is built on an 800-volt architecture designed for efficiency and long-distance travel. Its estimated range is up to 762 kilometers (473 miles) on the WLTP cycle. And Mercedes boasts that it's the "sportiest C-Class ever" but also "smooth like an S-Class." While Mercedes-Benz has a long history of releasing EVs under its "EQ" branding, the current C-Class is only available in a gas, mild-hybrid, and plug-in hybrid powertrain. So this marks the first time that the C-Class nameplate has been affixed to a p … Read the full story at The Verge.

Mercedes-Benz unveiled the all-new electric C-Class sedan during its first world premiere in Seoul, Monday, signaling its strong commitment to Korea’s premium electric vehicle (EV) market. The event underscores the country’s growing strategic importance to the German luxury carmaker, with a group of the firm’s top executives — including Mercedes-Benz Group Chairman Ola Kallenius — visiting Seoul to celebrate the debut of the all-electric C-Class. “Korea is such an important market for us, so we want to send a message to the Korean fans (by holding the event in Seoul),” Kallenius told reporters during a media roundtable. “Korea is one of the most important markets for us by size, and it is the fifth biggest. The customer base here is technology-oriented.” The vehicle combines a coupe-like silhouette, an illuminated grille featuring 1,050 backlit dots and a sporty rear design. The electric sedan delivers a range of up to 762 kilometers on a single charge, according to the Worldwide

Samsung SDI signed a multiyear contract Monday to supply high-nickel batteries made of nickel, cobalt and manganese for Mercedes-Benz’s next-generation compact and midsize electric SUVs, as well as coupe models. This marks the first time the Korean battery maker has struck an electric vehicle (EV) battery supply agreement with the German carmaker. Both companies kept the scale of the deal confidential.

The new CLA and electric GLC are building momentum, but China remains a serious problem for Mercedes’ global totals.

Mercedes-Benz is signaling an aggressive push to reclaim its fading leadership in Korea's imported electric vehicle (EV) market by holding a world premiere for the all-electric C-Class sedan in Seoul. The German luxury carmaker recently unveiled the plan to hold the high-profile event on April 20 by inviting a group of some 80 overseas journalists to Korea’s capital city. Given that this is the first time that the carmaker has hosted a world premiere event in the country, it is clear that Korea’s strategic importance to the carmaker is growing rapidly, particularly its EV business. The upcoming launch of the all-electric C-Class sedan comes at a critical juncture for Mercedes-Benz Korea, as it is losing its once top-selling market spot to emerging rivals. The success of the new model will be crucial for the carmaker to regain its stature and jump back into position as the nation’s top-selling imported carmaker.

For Shirin Emeera, the newly appointed CEO of Mercedes-Benz Korea, ensuring the successful launch of its key strategic electric vehicle (EV) lineup will be a top priority, with the carmaker still struggling to normalize declining EV sales in the aftermath of an EQE sedan fire two years ago, according to industry officials. She is scheduled to take office in July, replacing outgoing CEO Mathias Vaitl. Emeera’s arrival comes as the company prepares to debut two EV models — the all-new electric CLA and the all-new electric GLC — later this year, placing her leadership under close scrutiny as critics question whether the carmaker can rebuild its EV brand identity, which was heavily tarnished by a fire in an underground parking lot in Incheon that damaged around 140 vehicles and hospitalized 23 people. The incident triggered widespread safety concerns among consumers and dealt a significant blow to the brand’s reputation in the rapidly growing EV market. Mercedes-Benz Korea plans to

Mercedes-Benz Korea was slapped with a 12.23 billion won ($7.64 million) fine for misleading customers with false battery information on some electric vehicles (EVs), which triggered major safety scandals in 2024, the Fair Trade Commission (FTC) said Tuesday. The nation’s antitrust watchdog also ordered the carmaker to rectify its deceptive marketing practices. According to the authority’s investigation, the carmaker concealed the actual battery supplier for several models — the EQE and EQS EVs — and promoted the vehicles as being equipped with batteries from CATL, the world’s largest battery maker. Mercedes-Benz Korea distributed an internal sales manual to dealers in June 2023 with detailed information about the firm’s EV lineups. Even if many of the models were equipped with battery cells produced by Farasis Energy, a much lesser-known Chinese supplier than CATL, the carmaker focused on promoting the upsides of CATL batteries in the manual and omitted the fact that it also equipped
