Mercedes-Benz Philippines has officially launched two new plug-in hybrid models in the country: the all-new Mercedes-Benz E-Class Plug-in Hybrid (E 350e) and the Mercedes-Benz GLC Plug-in Hybrid (GLC 350e). This marks a key milestone in the brand’s push toward offering more sustainable mobility solutions in the local luxury market. The launch of these models also signify the expansion of electrified offerings here in the Philippines.
Plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs) are gaining traction in the Philippines as more consumers look for environmentally friendly alternatives to conventional gasoline-powered cars. PHEVs combine electric and gasoline power, offering improved fuel efficiency, lower emissions, and the ability to complete many daily drives on electric power alone. These vehicles also qualify for number coding exemptions, adding convenience for urban drivers. For many buyers, PHEVs are a practical step toward fully electric vehicles.
With the introduction of the E 350e and GLC 350e, Mercedes-Benz strengthens its position in the competitive luxury hybrid segment. Both models reflect the brand’s efforts to combine environmental responsibility, advanced technology, and premium driving experience.

Inside, the E-Class features the MBUX Superscreen, which integrates a 14.4-inch central touchscreen and a 12.3-inch passenger display under a single glass panel.
