Watch Mercedes-Benz Reveal New X-Class Pickup Live Here At 12:30 EST [First Photos]

Mercedes is going to lift the veils off their new X-Class pickup truck today in near-production concept form.

The reveal event will take place at the art gallery Artipelag in Stockholm, Sweden. The new Mercedes pickup truck is going to use the same platform with the Nissan Navara and the Renault Alaskan models.

Judging by the teaser images released in the previous days, Mercedes is likely to have opted for a face that resembles the sportier model in its line-up, including the AMG GT sportscar. The Germans have also promised that they will give their new pickup truck a cabin worthy of the Mercedes name.

Watch the reveal live on the video linked below at 7.30 p.m. CEST (4.30 p.m. GMT).

Update - we have the first images of the new Mercedes-Benz X-Class Concept that is being showcased in two flavors, the sportier and more premium 'Stylish Explorer', and the more rugged 'Powerful Adventurer'.
