A "saloon" is traditionally defined as a conventional passenger car with a stepped rear end and four doors, i.e. the conventional "3-box design". Deviating from this, Mercedes-Benz also offers the A-Class Saloon in what is known as a "compact saloon" with four doors and an inclined rear end.

Saloons from Mercedes-Benz range from the compact class to the luxury class with different performance and comfort levels. The A-Class Saloon is sporty and compact and the C-Class Saloon is a popular mid-range model, while the E-Class and the S-Class Saloon represent sophisticated top-range vehicles. The Mercedes-Maybach S-Class is our most luxurious and elegant saloon. As fully electric alternatives to the E-Class and S-Class saloons, the EQE Saloon and the EQS Saloon also feature two high-quality vehicles with state-of-the-art technologies.

Modern automotive design sometimes blurs the boundaries between traditional body types, creating exciting hybrids for specific customer interests. A 4-door coupé such as the CLA combines the saloon concept with the falling roofline of a coupé and represents a design concept that is both sporty and sensual.

With EQE and EQS, we have two fully electric-powered saloons on the modular architecture for luxury and upper-range electric vehicles in our product range. The EQE represents the sporty business avant-garde, while the EQS takes on the role of a progressive luxury saloon in the Mercedes-Benz product range.
