Even before its official launch, the 2018 Mercedes-Benz X-Class luxury pickup truck is already in high demand.

Even without knowing exactly what the vehicle will look like, many customers are already placing deposits to be among the first to own the 2018 Mercedes-Benz X-Class luxury pickup truck.

In late October 2016, Mercedes-Benz officially unveiled the X-Class luxury pickup truck, but only as a concept. According to Mercedes-Benz, the X-Class will begin sales in the European market later this year as a 2018 model.

The 2018 X-Class is still a long way from its market launch, but Mercedes-Benz has unexpectedly opened pre-orders for this luxury pickup truck in the UK market. This is due to overwhelming customer demand for the 2018 Mercedes-Benz X-Class.

Mercedes-Benz's UK branch has even created a dedicated website where customers can order the 2018 X-Class online. To reserve a Mercedes-Benz X-Class 2018, customers in the UK must place a deposit of £1,000, equivalent to approximately 28 million VND. Of course, if they decide not to purchase, the deposit will be refunded.

Customers in the UK can now order the 2018 Mercedes-Benz X-Class.

Thus, it can be seen that, even without knowing the exact design of the 2018 Mercedes-Benz X-Class production version, British customers are still willing to place orders. This suggests that the 2018 Mercedes-Benz X-Class is likely to sell very well in the future.

Unfortunately, Mercedes-Benz is currently only accepting orders from those living in the UK. The all-new luxury pickup truck from Mercedes-Benz is expected to go on sale in the UK in early 2018.

"During our discussions, we found that many customers were very eager to be among the first to own the new X-Class. This is truly amazing because the 2018 Mercedes-Benz X-Class hasn't even been officially launched yet," commented Steve Bridge, managing director of Mercedes-Benz Vans UK.

Surprisingly, Mercedes-Benz has not yet announced plans to sell the 2018 X-Class in the US market, which is very fond of pickup trucks. The fact that the Ford F-Series has consistently been the best-selling pickup truck in the US for decades proves this.

The 2018 Mercedes-Benz X-Class is developed based on the Nissan Navara chassis.

As is known, the 2018 Mercedes-Benz X-Class is developed based on the chassis of the familiar Nissan Navara pickup truck. This is part of a cooperation agreement between Daimler and Nissan.

However, in terms of design, the 2018 Mercedes-Benz X-Class and Nissan Navara are practically two unrelated models. Mercedes-Benz has invested heavily in creating a unique look that sets it apart from any competitor in the pickup truck segment.

When it hits the market, the 2018 Mercedes-Benz X-Class will come in both 2WD and 4WD versions. In addition, there will be a range of 4-cylinder petrol and diesel engine options. The top-of-the-line 2018 Mercedes-Benz X-Class will feature a more powerful V6 diesel engine.

The price of the 2018 Mercedes-Benz X-Class has not yet been revealed.
