Mercedes' new Premium Pickup Truck Model, the Concept X-CLASS, makes its debut
The automotive world is abuzz with excitement as Mercedes-Benz unveils the Concept X-Class Powerful Adventurer, a premium pickup truck that promises to redefine the off-roading experience. Scheduled for reveal on July 18, 2017, this tough off-roader is built on the same platform as the Nissan Navara and Renault Alaskan pickups, sharing powertrains with its counterparts.
Mercedes-Benz is targeting the growing trend for double cab pickups, particularly in the UK due to significant tax breaks for business owners. The Concept X-Class Powerful Adventurer is not mentioned to be targeted at any specific market, but it is part of Mercedes' plan to deliver the first 'Premium' pickup.
The Concept X-Class Powerful Adventurer is one of the two versions previewed for the X-Class, the other being the Concept X-CLASS Stylish Explorer, which offers car refinement and premium equipment. Both concepts showcase the X-Class's unique design, with a large front end, statement wheels, posh lights, and a tough yet premium look.
While the specific engine for the Concept X-Class Powerful Adventurer remains undisclosed, the top offering for the X-Class is expected to be a 3.0-liter diesel engine from Mercedes. The interior design of the Concept X-Class Powerful Adventurer is not detailed, but the X-Class interior boasts a Mercedes design with its premium features.
The production launch of the X-Class is scheduled for late 2017, making this an exciting time for pickup truck enthusiasts. The Mercedes-Benz Concept X-CLASS, which was expected to go into production around 2017, is the manufacturer's entry into the midsize pickup segment. With its focus on premium features and off-roading capabilities, the Concept X-Class Powerful Adventurer is set to make a significant impact in the pickup truck market.
