Celebrate Mother’s Day with a fine selection of Mercedes-Benz models.

A mother by any other name is still the most important woman in everyone’s lives, especially this Mother’s Day. Mercedes-Benz knows this, that’s why it picked four models from its stellar Philippine lineup that are perfect for mom, whatever her personality happens to be.

The Millennial Mom

The millennial mom keeps herself physically fit and updated on the latest tech toys, which is why the A-Class sedan complements her lifestyle, with a price of Php 2,850,000. Distinct lines are part of the compact model’s design, with a toned physique and athletic stance that turns heads as easily as it turns corners. LED exterior lighting comes standard, as well as 17-inch alloy wheels that bring on the stylish looks.

A cabin loaded with tech is where the modern queen of the family should reign, with the A-Class being the first to come with the Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX). This comprises a 7-inch touchscreen, touchpad, and control buttons on the steering wheel. Mom will be suitably impressed with the onboard Linguatronic voice control system, which features artificial intelligence that increasingly adapts to user habits and preferences with use.  

The Adventurous Mom

For the mom who seeks adventure and never shies away from new experiences, the GLA fits like a glove. Priced at Php 3,390,000, this entry-level SUV strikes a balance between refinement and ruggedness. A diamond radiator grille with chrome pins is followed by AMG styling on the bodywork, emphasizing the vehicle’s muscular shoulders.

Power comes from a 1.3-liter turbocharged gasoline engine that makes 163 hp and 250 Nm of torque. A 7G dual-clutch automatic gearbox spins the 19-inch light alloy wheels on the ground. Dynamic Select customizes driving modes with several performance profiles that enable the vehicle to adapt to varying driving conditions, while an Eco Start/Stop system conserves fuel by temporarily shutting off the engine at traffic stops to prevent extended idling.

The Career-Driven Mom

Moms have their own dreams of career success too, and the C-Class compact executive sedan reflects their ambition for Php 3,290,000. The woman on the go will appreciate the model’s array of safety and convenience features such as Active Parking Assist, Active Brake Assist, Attention Assist, and Electronic Stability Program, along with airbags for all occupants. ISOFIX child seat mounting points make it easier to bring along the kids on weekend drives.

After another full day of conquering the corporate world, mom will be glad to have high-performance LED headlamps to light her way home. The stress from work ebbs away with the help of the 64-color LED ambient lighting inside the cabin, combined with her favorite songs played on the 10.25-inch touchscreen head unit offering Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.      

The Hands-on Mom

And then there’s the mom who makes sure that the family has everything they need, especially quality time. The V-Class MPV is right up their alley, with a sticker price of Php 4,955,000. There’s nothing as big as a mother’s heart when it comes to carrying her loved ones, but the V-Class comes close with ample space for up to seven occupants and an Easy-Pack tailgate for cargo, in addition to generous storage options.

Mercedes-Benz V-Class

Electric sliding doors on either side of the vehicle make ingress and egress a breeze, while Lugano leather upholstery add a premium feel to every drive. The second-row seats even feature a folding table that’s practical for mobile business meetings or just treating the kids to snacks. Despite its size, the V-Class comes equipped with a 360-degree camera that eliminates blind spots while maneuvering around confined spaces.

Mercedes-Benz A-Class Launch

The Mercedes-Benz A-Class has been around for nearly two decades now from its first introduction to the global automotive market in the late ’90s.

Following the success of the A-Class in the local market, Mercedes-Benz Philippines introduced a new model of the said nameplate in September 2019.

Mercedes-Benz A-Class Exterior

Since its initial launch, the Mercedes-Benz A-Class’ design drastically evolved from looking like a compact hatchback to the sleek and modern luxury hatchback it is today. The A-Class generation embodies the brand’s signature aesthetic with added functionality. On each side of the vehicle are horizontal lines that run from the front to the rear, adding to the sporty vibe of the façade. Each line on its surface has been aerodynamically optimized to reduce fuel consumption and driving noise. The front fascia is decked with a hexagonal design matched with more round edges that add to the strong character of the vehicle.
