Paris Motor Show – Mercedes-Benz SUV Concept To Preview Tesla Model X Rival

Mercedes-Benz has wasted no time kicking off its push to add more electric vehicles to its range, with a new SUV EV concept set to be unveiled at the Paris Motor Show.

The carmaker reportedly revealed last month that four EVs will be available to customers by 2020, and that two or those models will be SUVs (believed to be GLA and GLC-based).

Now, the UK’s Autocar reports that the new EV concept will be more than just an eye-opening show car for Benz’s Paris Motor Show stand, instead serving as a preview of the company’s future road-going EV models.

An unnamed Benz source said to have insider knowledge reportedly revealed “we’ve created a whole new look that takes into consideration the unique properties of electric vehicles”.
