Getting a new Mercedes-Benz to evaluate is like a box of chocolates - you never know what you’re going to get. Personally, I'm not the biggest fan of the W205 C-Class nor the W176 A-Class, both of which lacked the substance to back their attractive styling.

BMW 5 Series One of the concerns of owning a hybrid vehicle or a fully electric vehicle is the cost of battery replacement. BMW’s solution is to have the high-voltage battery pack with individual modules that can be replaced. In the BMW 530e, there are 6 cell modules.
