MBM Announces New Pricing For Mercedes-Benz Passenger Cars Post SST

Following the introduction of the new Sales and Services Tax (SST), Mercedes-Benz Malaysia announces today that effective September 1, 2018, prices of all Mercedes-Benz premium automobiles are adjusted according to the government’s enactment of SST. Mercedes-Benz Malaysia is committed to continue providing its premium range of products and services at the best value, putting their customers at the centre of their activities.

Simultaneously, Mercedes-Benz is also pleased to share several product upgrades that are applied to the best-selling SUV namely, the GLC 200 and GLC 250 4MATIC, which are now equipped with Blind Spot Assist.

The GLC 250 4MATIC will also be equipped with the Lane Keeping Assist, a safety feature which allows the steering wheel to vibrate to warn the driver if the vehicle leaves its lane unintentionally with the help of the camera on the inside of the windscreen, which monitors the road markings by evaluating the difference in contrast between the road surface and the markings.

In the second half of this year, Mercedes-Benz Malaysia’s highlights include the launch of the complete variant of its flagship range, the S-Class family, consisting of the S-Class limousine, S-Class Cabriolet, S-Class Coupé and Mercedes-Maybach S-Class.

Risk An Affair – Mercedes-Benz Malaysia Unleashes The 2019 “DreamCars” Collection

The Dream Cars collection of Mercedes-Benz are the embodiment of the brand’s design philosophy of sensual purity, passion and alluring desire. These cars were crafted to fulfil the dreams of our most passionate fans – offering pure performance, breathtaking style, state-of-the-art engineering and absolute luxury.

“From the seductive design of the Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class, which was the original four-door coupe, to the AMG GT C which adds yet another thrilling facet to the AMG GT family and the E-Class Cabriolet, a masterpiece of intelligence now with the liberation of topless motoring, the Dream Cars offer the utmost indulgence for every kind of driver. In other words, we invite you to Risk an Affair,” said Mark Raine, Vice President Sales & Marketing Passenger Cars, Mercedes-Benz Malaysia (below).

The AMG GT C…

Originally crafted as a roadster, the Mercedes-AMG GT C finds new focus conceived in the form of a coupe. Powerful and poised to perform, AMG motorsport and racing technology features prominently in the GT C, with influence from the AMG GT R in the form of sculpted aerodynamic bodywork and AMG sport seats. With the AMG GT C, Mercedes-AMG is introducing a further output rating of the 4.0-litre V8 biturbo engine, thereby underlining the exclusive character of the new model. At 410 kW (557 hp), the peak output is 35 kW (47 hp) above that of the AMG GT S and 20 kW (28 hp) below the Mercedes‑AMG GT R. The maximum torque of 680 Nm is available from 1900 to 5750 rpm. The sprint from 0 to 100 km/h is absolved in 3.7 seconds, and this incredible acceleration continues until the top speed of 316 km/h is reached.

“The brutal Mercedes AMG GT C is an exciting addition to the AMG GT collection and, of course, to the World’s Fastest Family. Incredibly powerful and dynamically superior, the AMG GT C is also the complete aesthetic package with the intimidating Panamericana grille, wide stance and low, purposeful silhouette. With the new GT C, the AMG GT family has options for all passionate AMG aficionados, but all carrying the same superior motorsport DNA and coming from the same high performance bloodline for the ultimate in AMG performance,” added Mark.

The E-Class Cabriolet…

Comfort and luxury meet open-air pleasure in the all-new Mercedes-Benz E-Class Cabriolet. With expressive proportions and a puristic, surface-accentuated design, the E-Class Cabriolet offers a distinctive character along with a classic fabric soft top. The E-Class cabriolet is for the driver who wishes to savour every journey. The fabric soft top is available in the colours dark brown, dark blue, red or black. A fully automatic acoustic soft top comes as standard. Its multi-layered structure with sophisticated insulation reduces wind and driving noise, which makes it easy for the occupants to hear each other talk, even when driving at high speed. The soft-top structure has an equally positive effect when it comes to climate comfort and makes the Cabriolet suitable for use all year round.

Derived from the S-Class Cabriolet, the soft top also meets high quality standards in terms of durability and operation. It can be completely opened and closed in 20 seconds, and at speeds up to 50 km/h. After opening, it folds down quietly and precisely and is stored in the soft-top compartment in the boot. A retractable cover separates the soft top from the remaining boot space. Thanks to the fully electrical control included in the optional Cabriolet Comfort package, the driver does not have to stop to operate the boot separator manually. The boot capacity of 385 litres (310 litres when the roof is open) offers all the right ingredients for a high level of everyday practicality. The all-new 50:50 folding rear seat backrests create a through-loading feature in the interior – another plus point when it comes to everyday practicality.

With superior luxury and breathtaking style, the CLS offers a premium experience similar to that of an S-Class but for the owner who prefers to be behind the wheel.

“The Mercedes-Benz CLS has been an icon since its introduction, a supremely crafted four-door coupe. With an unmistakably unique aesthetic, which has now set the tone for the contemporary Mercedes-Benz design language, it is a legendary automobile and has completely earned its place among our Dream Cars. In addition, the CLS features a new generation electrified powertrain for the perfect combination of luxury, comfort, progressivity and performance in a bold statement.

The service clinics cater to Mercedes-Benz cars, aged 48 months old and over. Customers who wish to have their vehicles undergo a full safety check conducted by a Mercedes-Benz Service Expert from Daimler, popularly known as a ‘Flying Doctor’, are urged to book their appointments in advance to secure their slot. The initiative allows customers a first-hand look at the comprehensive expertise and service that go into maintaining masterpieces bearing the Three-Pointed Star.

“Our customers are always at the centre of our activities. This is why we go to great lengths to ensure our customers enjoy the Best Customer Experience in every encounter with the Mercedes-Benz brand along the customer journey,” Mercedes-Benz Malaysia, President and CEO, Dr Claus Weidner.

During the Mercedes-Benz Service Clinics, Mercedes-Benz cars are given a full safety check conducted by the ‘Flying Doctor’. Each car is then followed up by assigned teams for the relevant service or repairs recommended.

“A Mercedes-Benz car is a masterpiece that is maintained by craftsmen with an intricate understanding of vehicles bearing the Three-pointed Star. Being passioante fans of the brand, we understand our customers carry much sentimental value with their Mercedes-Benz cars. The Mercedes-Benz Service Clinics demonstrate the strong support our dealer network receives from Mercedes-Benz Service Experts from Daimler in order to care for our customers’ prized Mercerdes-Benz cars,” added Mercedes-Benz Malaysia, Vice President, Customer Services MBC, Passenger Cars, Heinrich Schromm.

In addition to providing valuable peace of mind to customers, the service clinics also present opportunities for talent development. As a result of assisting the ‘Flying Doctor’ during the service clinics, Mercedes-Benz Malaysia’s local customer services teams gain valuable experience and knowledge which exemplifies the Mercedes-Benz philosophy of ‘lifelong learning’.

To-date, Mercedes-Benz Malaysia has 33 dedicated dealerships nationwide delivering the Best Products and the Best Customer Experience throughout customers’ entire journey, maintaining Mercedes-Benz Malaysia as the largest premium automotive dealer network in the country.
