The current W213 generation Mercedes-Benz E-Class will soon bow out to make way for an all-new W214 generation model, which will be launched in 2023. The latest E-Class will also be joined by an EV variant developed specifically for China, confirms CEO Ola Källenius. Speaking at yesterday’s ‘Economics of Desire’ strategy update event, Källenius said Mercedes-Benz Group's product strategy for its Core Luxury segment, which includes both the C-Class and E-Class – its highest volume contributors –

BMW Malaysia today unveiled a new variant to their 5 Series line up in Malaysia with this, the 2021 BMW 530i M Sport Dark Shadow Edition. With only 36 units on offer, on-the-road prices for the locally-assembled (CKD) Dark Shadow Edition starts at RM 392,800 (sans insurance, inclusive of SST). This price is an additional RM 10k above the standard BMW 530i M Sport, so let's see what's new here.

In this exercise, we’ll compare the 2020 BMW 5 Series facelift (LCI) against its main rival, which also received a nip and tuck recently, the 2020 Mercedes-Benz E-Class. Since we’ve yet to test either of these two updated models, this is more of a visual and specs comparison.

If you have visited any Mercedes-Benz dealers recently, you would know that there are hardly any 2020 models on sale. Perplexing because we are already well into the third month of the year. It doesn’t matter if you are buying a locally-assembled Mercedes-Benz C-Class/E-Class/GLC-Class or an imported A-Class. Dealers don’t have any 2020 manufacturing year cars to sell you.
