The new E-Class still can't find any traction. The mid-size sedan segment is left for dead. More troubling is the SUVs where not a single model was positive for the month! The new GLE and updated GLC should help turn those numbers around by end of Q2.

Lol I think you forgot the G class, the GLS is the oldest in its class awaiting replacement while GLE is currently being replaced and GLC gets a facelift

Never forget the G

Mercedes has got to have the most balanced line up/sales sheet in the market. GLE took a hit as new ones prepare for showrooms, however the G WAGON sold over 1,000 units?!?! Crazy outselling the S Class for the first time and posting numbers like the GLA and CLA... the G is a beast in all respects.

GLC and E refreshes on the way

New GLE and facelifted GLC should cover the gap shortly. And facelifted E is in the near future as well. Not to mention the new A-sedan should definitely make a huge impact.

Without the C-Class which is offering great deals the picture is somewhat bleak for Mercedes.

Stop putting the 4 cylinders in every model. A, GLA, C, CLA, GLE, E, GLC all have same 4 cylinder. The homogenous design philosophy has gone a little too far.
