Mercedes-benz X-class

Brabus is normally associated with making insane power and adding sometimes questionable style to already fast Mercedes cars. The German tuner is now working on the relatively meek, but cool looking, Mercedes X-Class pickup truck. Most of the upgrades are in the style department.

When the Mercedes-Benz X-Class truck was unveiled, I was more than a little annoyed that it wouldn’t come to the US. Not that I would be a likely buyer for a Mercedes truck, but I would love to see them cruising the streets regardless.

The new Mercedes-Benz X-Class pickup truck is a handsome mix between an AMG GT and a Ford Ranger. It’s a premium offering that will sell well around the world. But Mercedes-Benz has no intention on bringing that money maker to the United States, even though trucks are selling for insane prices here.

What is the number one selling vehicle in the United States? It’s the Ford F-150. What is the Ford F-150? It’s a pickup truck. That’s why I’m a bit confused as to why Mercedes-Benz decided that they aren’t selling their new pickup truck, the X-Class, in the United States.
