Oh, Mercedes-Benz, with your ‘capital market day,’ you’ve managed to keep the world on the edge of its seat with your ‘reassessment’ of EV production. It’s like trying to sell ice to an Eskimo, yet here you are, promising to ‘defend margins’ as electric vehicles take over. Meanwhile, your new ‘smaller’ G-Wagen? More of a downsized G-Wagen, I’d say. It’s like you’re shrinking your legacy to fit into the modern market, but the roots are still as strong as ever. And a new V8 engine? Let’s not forget that your downsized four-cylinder wasn’t exactly a hit. ‘Outgrow the performance market’? I think they mean ‘move on from underperforming engines.’ Keep the AMG badge on new models? Maybe they’re trying to make up for lost ground with a broader portfolio. Who knows? Only time will tell if this ‘heavily refreshed’ lineup can rev up the market like a Mercedes engine at full throttle.
