2018 Mercedes GLT Pickup Truck

Ever since Mercedes stated back in March 2015 that they would build a truck, everyone got excited about it. After waiting more than a year without any official details or even pictures, some photographers managed to grab a few shots of a prototype which seems to be the upcoming 2018 Mercedes GLT Pickup Truck. Even though the name is still not official, many people suggested this name because it would perfectly match Mercedes’ nomenclature. We are quite sure at this point that the future GLT will be released as a competitor for the VW Amarok which is the only other premium truck out there. The actual release date is unknown at this point. However, the truck is expected to hit the market in late 2017.

The GLT will most-likely use an existing Nissan platform from an existing partnership.

The Ridgeline has gotten a descent reception as it returns to the market. It's a simple, clean-cut truck that offers CUV versatility with an open bed design. GM has been enjoying descent overall sales of the Colorado & Canyon. The market for this truck sizing, utility, pricing is still strong. Especially has the large trucks have become ridiculously expensive.
