Mercedes introduces new Zetros military truck |
Mercedes introduces new Zetros military truck

Click on the above image for a Zetros photo gallery
Mercedes-Benz chose the International Defense Exhibition Eurosatory 2008 in Paris, a show we don’t normally attend, to introduce their new Zetros truck. The model pictured above is the Zetros 2733 A 6×6, offering permanent all-wheel-drive to all three axles and the ability to haul nearly 10 tons of equipment and supplies. If you just don’t have that much stuff, Mercedes also offers the Zetros 1833 A 4×4, a two-axle derivative with a reduced load capacity. Both versions offer go-anywhere capabilities with exemplary off-road manners and the ability to be upgraded with state-of-the art armor for protection against mine and ballistic attack. While you’d expect the Zetros to handle like a wet noodle, the German automaker insists the Zetros has been designed with the driver in mind, adding “…the ideal seating position behind the front axle delivers intuitive car-like handling.” Since we don’t have a Zetros planned for an “In the Autoblog Garage” review, we’ll just have to take their word on that.

Fiat apologizes to China for Richard Gere commercial |
Fiat apologizes to China for Richard Gere commercial
According to Olivier Francois, Chief Executive Officer of Lancia, Richard Gere was chosen for a recent ad for the Lancia Delta because he “is not merely a fine actor; not merely one of the most famous men in the world. He is a man with a great difference: the ability to combine talent, fame and style with great character. I’m talking about his commitment to peace.” That affinity for peace stretches especially towards the people of Tibet, a people who’s autonomy from China Gere supports.
This commercial, which you can watch after the break, features Gere driving a new Lancia Delta from Hollywood to Tibet in just 30 seconds and aired in Italy. After reports of the commercial appeared in Chinese newspapers, China was apparently none too happy about it. Fiat has decided to apologize, with a company spokesman saying, “Fiat Group extends its apologies to the Government of the People’s Republic of China and to the Chinese people.”
Our opinion? Gere’s alright in Pretty Woman, but not much else after that. Apologies are usually pretty lame, but we’d appreciate one for Gere’s horrible singing in Chicago as long as they are being handed out so freely. And how ’bout one for that Lancia’s front end?
