How does the Concept IAA work?

As new technologies are invented, cars are becoming more and more efficient. But exactly how efficient are they? The truth is that we lose a lot of the energy that the combustion engine creates to excess heat, idling time, and aerodynamic drag. Many people don’t realize the effect drag has on a vehicle. Just like in an airplane, when a car is in motion, it is fighting against the air pushing back in front of it. In an effort to combat this problem, Mercedes-Benz has unleashed the Intelligent Aerodynamic Automobile, or IAA for short. It is a concept vehicle that was unveiled at the Frankfurt Auto Show in Germany and it is bringing the imaginations of motorists to life. If you are asking yourself “How does the Concept IAA work?”, then you came to the right place.

2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class VS. GLC-Class

It’s not very common for a car manufacturer to unveil two brand new models at the same time. It is especially rare that both models are as similar as the 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class VS. GLC-Class, both new to Mercedes-Benz this year. The GLE-Class, available now, and the GLC-Class, available next month, are replacing the M-Class and the GLK-Classes, which makes this release even more unheard of in the automotive industry. What exactly sets the two SUVs apart? Why didn’t Mercedes-Benz just make one?

If you have been following the release of the brand new GLC and GLE Mercedes-Benz models, you know that it won’t be much longer now before we get to hear a salesman say, “So what’s it going to take to get you into this car today?” Usually this is an annoying part about shopping for a new car. The difference in this case though is that he or she will be standing in front of a never-before seen GLE-Class. But what about monetary compensation? We have good news. The 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE SUV price is not over the top. Don’t get us wrong, you can spend a lot of money on one if you want to, but there will also be more affordable versions available.
