Mercedes reveals electric luxury models for on- and off-road
CNN
Mercedes gave details on a number of new electric cars ahead of next week's Munich transportation show. They include two SUV concepts -— one a rugged off-roader and the other an opulent ultra-luxury model — as well as a high-performance sedan.
The Mercedes-Benz EQG concept SUV is an all-electric interpretation of the Mercedes G-class SUV. The SUV shares the G-class's boxy shape. Engineers even copied the G-class' jutting door handles and meticulously recreated the same "thunk" made by the G-class' doors when they close. Instead of a spare tire mounted on the EQG's tailgate, there's a storage box that can hold a charging cable.Over and over at a confirmation hearing on Wednesday, Democratic senators confronted Robert F. Kennedy Jr. about controversial comments they said he had made in the past. And over and over, President Donald Trump’s nominee for secretary of health and human services either denied having said those things or said he wasn’t sure he had said them.
Investigators are intensifying their search into what caused the collision between American Airlines Flight 5342 and an Army Black Hawk helicopter, with recovery crews still working to pull wreckage from the Potomac River and initial concerns already raised about the path of at least one of the aircraft.
