Exterior

The grille dominates the conversation. Rather than shrinking in the EV era, the C-Class EV’s grille appears set to grow, with Mercedes positioning it as the car’s central visual element. In renderings from Kolesa, it features a larger LED-lit surface framed by a thick silver or chrome-finished bezel. There are also three horizontal slats and small LEDs integrated into the new design, while the headlights incorporate the star-shaped daytime running lights also seen on other new Mercedes models.

Moving towards the rear, the C-Class EV features slim LED taillights housed within a gloss-black panel that stretches across the width of the car.

Interior

Cabin details remain under wraps, though Mercedes has options within its existing portfolio. There might be a massive 39.1-inch MBUX Hyperscreen borrowed from the GLC EQ, while the company might also feature the Superscreen layout also seen on the new CLA; this may be used to combine a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster with a 14-inch central infotainment display and a matching 14-inch passenger screen.

Complete Powertrain Information

The Mercedes-Benz C-Class EV will stand on the company`s new MB.EA architecture, meaning that it will support a standard 94 kWh battery and 800-volt electrical system, enough to produce charging speeds of up to 330kWh. That might bring along up to 800 miles of range, way more impressive than the 713 miles provided by the GLC EQ. 

The whole electrical setup will also back up two electric motors in the C400 model, with power standing at around 500 horsepower, which will allow a 0 to 100 km/h in less than 5.0 seconds. AMG versions are also planned. One prototype has already been spotted testing on 21-inch wheels with carbon-ceramic brakes.

Conclusion

The electric C-Class appears ready to rely heavily on design to make its case, pairing an illuminated grille with substantial battery capacity and high-voltage charging capability. With a debut anticipated before the end of this year and a global launch scheduled for early 2027, the final verdict on its bold styling will not take long to arrive.

Photographers have already snapped the refreshed Range Rover recently, yet this time, the focus lands on the second-generation Velar. It’s expected to debut later this year. What stands out immediately is how different it seems to approach its proportions.

Exterior

The front is smoother looking with almost rounded off edges as compared on the current model. The grille is completely covered, which matches its electric intentions, and the Headlights are significantly slim. It has a clamshell hood still, though with a broad lower intake under it to form the front fascia, although the general impression is more flowing than aggressive.

In profile, the changes become more apparent. The windscreen is more sharply raked, flowing into a roofline that drops quickly toward the rear; it gives the Velar a sportier posture, although that silhouette could come with compromises in cargo space or rear headroom. Nothing official confirms that, but the geometry suggests it’s possible.

Small details start to fill in the picture. The charging port is mounted at the rear. The door handles sit flush against the body. Even through camouflage, the surfaces appear deliberately smoothed out.

At the back, things get slightly unconventional. The liftgate has an upright tail design, and a roof-mounted camera is visible. That placement hints at the possibility of removing a traditional rear window, though this hasn’t been confirmed. A spoiler integrates into the rear design, wraparound taillights stretch across the corners, and the bumper keeps things simple with horizontal reflectors.

Powertrain Details

Underneath, the new Velar will ride on Land Rover’s electrified modular architecture (EMA) and will be built at the Halewood plant. While the company has been focusing on promoting the Range Rover Electric, the Velar could share much of its hardware. If that proves true, it may carry a 117 kWh battery pack along with a dual-motor all-wheel drive system producing around 542 hp (404 kW / 550 PS) and 627 lb-ft (849 Nm) of torque. Multiple configurations are said to be possible.

It’s still early, and much remains hidden under a patterned wrap. But one thing seems clear enough: the Velar isn’t just evolving. It’s repositioning itself.
