Mercedes is now studying the North American market to make a case for bringing the X-Class.

Building upon the latest Nissan Navara, which also forms the base for the Renault Alaskan, the Mercedes-Benz X-Class was presented in concept form last year.  In the meantime, the Germans have started testing prototypes out in the open, which are believed to use some of Daimler's engines, and the 4Matic all-wheel drive.


An exact reveal date is unknown at this time, but the pickup truck that will compete against the Volkswagen Amarok, among other trucks, should debut later in 2017.
