The Mercedes-Benz
X-Class is a pickup truck truly unlike any other. Not only does the X-Class
have a three-pointed star, but its interior is much fancier and luxurious than
ordinary mid-size pickups. The Nissan underpinnings may rub a few people the
wrong way, but if you want a pickup with style and comfort, it’s hard to look
past the X-Class.
This is even more
true for this exact X-Class. The example you’re looking at comes from Carlex
Design, a company which has made a name for itself by producing wild and wacky
interiors for all kinds of high-end vehicles. For the X-Class, Carlex looked to
create something that would make occupants feel like they’re in a bush-bashing
pickup but with all the luxurious elements you’d expect of a typical
Mercedes-Benz.
With this in mind,
the cabin is bathed in a mixture of white and brown leather. The white leather
can be found across parts of the seats, door panels, lower dashboard, and
steering wheel while brown leather adorns many of the other interior surfaces,
including the transmission tunnel and center console. Wood is also found on the
pickup’s dashboard and there’s even wood paneling in place of ordinary floor
mats.
Other changes made
by Carlex include the fitment of brown alcantara on parts of the doors,
dashboard, and steering wheel, while the roof is clad in black alcantara.
Although it can handle it, most X-Class owners probably won’t test its
off-roading skills that much, so there’s no fear of tarnishing this exquisite
interior with things like dust, leaves or mud.
