The mid-point of the 2018 Mercedes-Benz X-Class range is the Progressive, which is visually determined by its body-coloured bumpers with black trim at the front and 17-inch alloy wheels.
It also gets heated side mirrors, a heat-insulated windscreen, rain-sensing wipers, carpet on the floor, a black grained instrument panel, silver air vent trims, black 'Posadas' fabric upholstery, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, gear shifter and handbrake lever, aluminium sill protectors, an eight-speaker sound system with DAB digital radio, a 7.0-inch media screen with Garmin satellite navigation and an auto-dimming rearview mirror.
The Progressive model is only sold with the X250d drivetrain, but can be had as a cab-chassis in manual ($53,950) or auto ($56,850) guise. If you prefer the pick-up body style, you’ll be spending $54,900 for the manual or $57,800 for the auto.
There are a bunch of different optional packs available depending on the trim level - read the Mercedes-Benz X-Class 2018 pricing and specs story for more info.

Standard safety kit includes auto emergency braking (AEB) with lane-keeping assist, plus seven airbags (dual front, driver’s knee, front side and full-length curtain), as well as ISOFIX child-seat anchors and top-tether points. It has the maximum five-star ANCAP crash test rating.
