New Mercedes models: These cars will come by 2026
At Mercedes, the course will be set ever more closely in the direction of electric mobility in the coming years. From 2025, new models are to be built only on electric platforms. In this article, we'll tell you which new Mercedes models we can expect.
From 2025, Mercedes will only build on electric platforms for new releases, but the classic combustion models will also be available in the next few years. We tell you which Mercedes models we expect.
When will there be new Mercedes models?
From 2025
Mercedes CLA
The new entry-level model is to replace the old A-Class and also the old B-Class. With the latest technology for both electric and combustion engines and an attractive design, the CLA is one of the most important new products from Mercedes-Benz. On an 800-volt platform and equipped with an 85 kWh battery, the CLA is said to have a range of 792 km and 320 kW of charging power. The CLA is available to order now and starts at €55,858.

Mercedes-Maybach SL 680 Monogram Series
The upcoming convertible from Mercedes-Maybach is intended to combine sportiness and elegance in one and relies on an absolute top model with the two-seater. With its exclusive design and the usual Maybach comfort inside, the Mercedes-Maybach SL 680 is expected to delight customers from spring 2025.
Mercedes GLS second facelift
Although more electric cars are to come from Mercedes from 2025, the ongoing slump in electromobility is likely to ensure that Mercedes is sending its current combustion engines into overtime.
Despite the facelift that only took place in 2023, a second model update seems to be in the offing for the Mercedes GLS. The first prototypes of the second facelift for the Mercedes GLS have already been sighted.
Mercedes C-Class Facelift
The C-Class was released in 2021 and has been waiting for its facelift for some time. Now new pictures of the prototypes for the 2025/26 model facelift for the C-Class have been discovered. Among them are the first pictures of the estate. All information and pictures can be found here: Mercedes C-Class facelift.
Mercedes GLC EQ (EQC SUV)
On the new MB. EA, will also be based on the EQC SUV. There will be both a sedan and an SUV. The EQC SUV will have many technical innovations, and has now been spotted for the first time on a test drive. The new EQC generation is scheduled to be launched in 2025, but probably under a different name. GLC EQ or similar combinations could be a good option here.
EQC Sedan
In addition to the EQC SUV, the EQC sedan is intended to establish Mercedes in the electric mid-size class. Here, too, there are now pictures of the prototype on a test drive. The sedan is to be launched at the same time as the SUV in 2025.
S-Class Facelift
A facelift is coming for the S-Class. There will only be cautious changes to the luxury sedan. We have collected the first pictures and information for you. The new S-Class will probably be presented in mid-2025.
Mercedes AMG CLE 63 Coupe
For 2025, we also expect the Mercedes AMG CLE 63 Coupe. This is likely to fall back on a V8 gasoline engine and no longer rely on hybrid. The coupé is scheduled to come in spring 2025.
Mercedes AMG EQA Sedan or 4-door Coupé
For the first time, a prototype was spotted on test drives. The powerful AMG model is clearly recognizable by some sporty details. Not much is known yet, but an EQA sedan may come as early as 2025.
Mercedes GLC EV
Seit der Einstellung des EQC 2023 warten Mercedes-Fans auf einen Nachfolger des Modells. Dieser soll nun unter dem GLC-Namen Ende 2025 erscheinen. Mit dem Wegfall des EQ-Brandings sollen andere Altlasten ebenfalls entfernt werden und ein moderner SUV auf dem neuesten Stand der Technik kommen. Der GLC mit EQ-Technologie bekommt auch als erstes Modell bei Mercedes den neuen Grill der neuen Mercedes-Designsprache.
Wir rechnen mit einer 800 V-Plattform und einer Batterie mit knapp 100 kWh Kapazität beim neuen Mercedes GLC EV.
Ab 2026
Mercedes CLA Shooting Brake
Nachdem der neue CLA schon 2025 an den Start gegangen ist, kommt die familienfreundlichere Version im nächsten Jahr. Der Mercedes CLA Shooting Brake bietet das neue Einstiegsmodell von Mercedes in einer geräumigeren Kombi-Version an und soll als Vollhybrid und E-Auto kommen. Der CLA Shooting Brake soll Ende 2025 bestellbar werden und ist ab März 2026 bei den Händlern zu finden.

The new generation of the Mercedes-Benz GLA is based on a new platform that can serve both electric cars and combustion engines. Similar to the CLA, the entry-level SUV from Mercedes-Benz will therefore have a two-pronged approach in the future. We expect the starting signal for the all-electric car at the end of 2026, with the mild hybrid combustion engine variant likely to follow at the beginning of 2027. With a range of up to 720 km for the electric car and an 800-volt architecture, the new GLA should stir up the electric car market well.
Second facelift for the GLE and GLE Coupé
The updated GLE and GLE Coupé models have only been available since 2024, but prototypes of a second revision have already been spotted. This is probably intended to keep the generation attractive until it is finally replaced by electric variants. It is still unclear when exactly the second facelift will be presented, at the end of 2025 at the earliest, but 2026 or 2027 are more likely.

Mercedes GLB
There will be a new generation for the SUV in 2026. This is not only to inherit the EQB, but also act as an SUV counterpart to the CLA. We have initial information and pictures of the SUV, which is to be released as both a combustion engine and an electric car.
New Mercedes V-Class
The new generation of the Mercedes V-Class is on its way and was discovered during test drives in Scandinavia. From 2027, it is to appear as a full-electric vehicle with 800-volt architecture and thus win both private and commercial customers. We don't expect the van to be unveiled until 2026 at the earliest.
