Mercedes Models Can Bring Big Repair Bills, Plus the Latest from the Brand

From aging S-Class flagships to high-performance used market bargains, some Mercedes models can leave you with repair bills that cost more than what you paid for the car. That's a key takeaway for anyone considering a used luxury purchase.
In recent weeks, Mercedes has also been in the spotlight with a series of new reveals. The Iride Evo 5 keeps the spirit of Mercedes' DTM homologation icon, but swaps its original four-cylinder for a much more powerful M103 inline-six.
Mercedes-AMG's new GT 53 4-Door Coupe offers a less extreme, longer-range alternative to the brand's 800-plus-hp electric sedans.
Mercedes-Benz has also unveiled an all-new GLA that is larger, more refined, and available with both hybrid and fully electric powertrains.
Meanwhile, Mercedes-AMG is giving its high-performance A 45 S hatchback one final sendoff before the model disappears later this year.
The upcoming G-Class Cabrio has been shown in new teaser images, offering the clearest look yet at its unusual convertible design.
For luxury SUV buyers, the 2027 Mercedes-Maybach GLS 680 goes far beyond leather seats and wood trim with features designed to pamper every passenger.
Finally, after widespread skepticism, Bring a Trailer, the selling dealer, and Hagerty all confirmed that a record-breaking sale was legitimate.
