Audi and Mercedes-Benz both began offering diesel-powered compact crossovers in the U.S. The U.S. isn鈥檛 historically a market prone to diesel purchases, but that鈥檚 slowly starting to change. What used to be an unusual fuel reserved for heavy-duty trucks is trickling into high-end luxury showrooms. Take the Audi Q5 and Mercedes-Benz GLK 250 BlueTEC as examples. They both offer torque-rich turbo diesels in a small package. Both boast relatively conservative fuel consumption without the sort of power sacrifices you might expect. Rosy as that might sound, there are drawbacks. As a fuel, diesel tends to be more expensive per gallon. It鈥檚 also harder to find because fewer gas stations sell it than, well鈥?gasoline. Audi slaps its familiar 3.0-liter turbo diesel V6 into the Q5 - the same unit used in the A6, A7 and A8 - while Mercedes makes do with a 2.1-liter turbo four. They compete in the same class and use the same fuel but offer a different end product. With that in mind, we decided to drive them side-by-side to determine which of the two brands offers the better solution to selling a product in such a niche segment.

A recent Facebook and Twitter challenge by Mercedes-Benz sent two fans home with a new model by Mercedes-Benz that will not be available until this fall at Boston Mercedes dealer lots in Massachusetts: Mercedes C-Class Coupe. The all-new 2012 model is even more stylish, modernized and appealing than its C-Class predecessors. 45,000 to St. Jude Children's Hospital as part of the event. Todd and John's Tweet coach, Pete Wentz, is an active supporter of St. Jude Children's Hospital and chose the charity to be the winning team's beneficiary. The contest, which was ran entirely through Facebook and Twitter, required participants to earn as many tweets as possible through a variety of different ways. These ways included getting supporters to tweet certain team hashtags and each driver's handle in every tweet. Other tweet points were earned for pictures tweeted of support signs from participant's hometowns; pictures tweeted by people the participants met along the route also earned participants points. Perhaps the most interesting part of the entire Mercedes-Benz Tweet Race, which by the way is the world's first tweet race, was the fact that tweets were considered fuel for the vehicle. That is to say, participants could only continue on their route to Dallas if a certain amount of tweet-fuel was in their tweet-tank. Winning specific challenges would add to participant's tweet-tank, while not making nightly check points in time, not responding to the race director via Twitter in time and not abiding by speed limits would all deduct tweets from participant's tweet-tank. Being punished by local law-enforcement would also penalize participant's tweet-tanks. For more information on the vehicles driven in the race, which included the CL 550 4Matic Coupe, the E550 Cabriolet and the GL350 BlueTEC SUV, in addition to the S400 Hybrid sedan, visit your local Boston Mercedes dealer in Massachusetts. The Mercedes C-Class Coupe that was awarded to the winners is expected to arrive on dealer lots this fall and from all accounts thus far, is one of the most appealing vehicles Mercedes-Benz has ever produced.

Equipped with the optional 鈥楶erformance Package鈥? the ML63 AMG nudges the performance ceiling of the segment marginally higher: it produces 549bhp, distancing itself from the BMW X5 M by a mere two brake horsepower. The main gripe you might have with a large-displacement petrol engine in an equally-large SUV is, of course, poor fuel economy - but Mercedes engineers have dug deep into their bag of tricks to keep consumption at a tolerable level. A start/stop system is fitted as standard, while the 鈥楥ontrolled Efficiency鈥?gearbox mode (others are 鈥楽port鈥?and 鈥楳anual鈥? encourages frugal driving behaviour by changing up gears early and pulling away from standstill in second gear in most situations. However, all that 鈥榚 ncouraging鈥?is undone by the aural drama: the bassy note urges the driver to hold onto gears that much longer when in manual mode, just to hear the pitch ascent of the V8鈥檚 burbling grumble. As a result, the 23.9mpg combined figure will seldom be achieved in practice; a figure below 20mpg is likely for all but the most featherfooted. The air suspension also has three settings: 鈥楥omfort鈥? 鈥楽port鈥?and 鈥楽 port Plus鈥?
