Its probably thanks to former M-division head Albert Biernman heading R&D over at Hyundai/Kia/Genesis. I believe he's responsible for the G70, Stinger, and Volester N

Honestly I think Merc has already beaten BMW in certain models, mainly the C,E,S in their higher trims (full AMG and AMG-light), but BMW is ahead in SUVs in my opinion.
