  • Mercedes-AMG celebrates 45th anniversary

    Daimler, Mercedes-Benz's parent company, is one of the oldest names in the automotive world. Mercedes-Benz itself bears a long history. But the AMG performance brand is quite a bit younger--just 45 this year. In celebration of the anniversary, the company has loosed its lips, a bit, about its direction in the near future. While the A45 AMG is a top topic, it's not coming to the U.S. as yet--or likely at all--and we're a bit sore about missing out on the all-wheel drive, high-power, 2.0-liter turbo luxury hot hatch. All is not lost, however, as Mercedes-Benz says it will bring all-wheel drive...

    With Mercedes-AMG dangling some very tasty-looking forbidden fruit in our faces in the form of the A45 AMG, we're currently feeling somewhat mixed toward the brand, though we have some hope for the CLA45 AMG--and we already know and love many of their other products.

  • AMG's first stand alone dealership, the Beijing Sanlitun AMG Performance Center

    The Beijing Sanlitun AMG Performance Center is unlike any other Mercedes-Benz dealership in the world; you can’t buy a Mercedes-Benz E Class or C Class model there, but you can buy anything in the current AMG high-performance portfolio.

All of these, however, have been “stores within stores,” integrated with a full-line Mercedes-Benz dealership. The Beijing Sanlitun AMG Performance Center will be the brand’s first stand-alone store, carrying only...
