Introduction
Welcome to an up-to-date, source-checked briefing on Mercedes-Benz City in Dubai. This article gathers confirmed information published in December 2025 about the collaboration between Binghatti and Mercedes-Benz. I use only verified statements from official developer pages and reputable press coverage; anything not yet confirmed is clearly noted below.
1. 🏗️ Project overview
The announcement confirms that Mercedes-Benz City in Dubai is a master-planned branded development by Binghatti in partnership with Mercedes-Benz. The plan is described as the world’s first Mercedes-Benz-branded city, and public reports cite the project’s working scale and masterplan ambition.
2. 📍 Location and masterplan
The initial coverage places the development in the Meydan district and describes a multi-tower, mixed-use “city within a city” model including residential towers, retail boulevards, parks, mobility hubs, and wellness zones. For its scale and intent, the development has been consistently linked to Meydan in press material.
3. 💰 Investment and scale
Public reports state an approximate investment of AED 30 billion and a covered area of around 10 million square feet. Those two numbers are the headline financial and area figures quoted by multiple sources and by the developer at the time of the announcement. Treat the exact financial disclosures as the developer’s formal figures to be confirmed in investor materials.
4. 🏘️ Relationship with prior Mercedes-Benz Places projects
Binghatti and Mercedes-Benz previously collaborated on branded residential projects under Mercedes-Benz Places, including a landmark residence in Downtown Dubai. The new masterplan extends that relationship from branded towers to a full district-scale concept. The earlier branded tower work is documented on the developer and Mercedes-Benz Places pages. binghatti.com+1
5. 🛠️ Timeline and delivery expectations
Initial press releases shared intentions and masterplan highlights but did not publish a detailed phased construction schedule or specific delivery dates. That means timelines remain to be confirmed through developer updates or planning filings; readers should expect phased planning and approvals before handover timelines are published.
6. 🧩 Design, amenities, and brand integration
Public materials emphasise that the masterplan will integrate Mercedes-Benz design language across architecture, public spaces and amenity design. Announced elements include residential living, cultural and leisure districts, retail boulevards, parks, mobility hubs and wellness zones. Specific unit mixes, floorplans and exact amenity lists were not included in the first announcement and should be verified when sales brochures and masterplan documents are published.
7. 📈 Market and investor implications
A branded masterplan of this scale is expected to attract luxury buyers and institutional capital aiming for lifestyle-led urban assets. The brand association and project scale could influence priced comparables in adjacent districts and shape future branded development strategies in Dubai. As always, buyers and investors should obtain official payment terms, service charge projections and inclusion lists before making decisions.
8. 🔎 How to verify details and next steps for readers
To track authentic updates, consult Binghatti Developers’ official releases and Mercedes-Benz Places channels, and monitor reputable press outlets for milestone reporting. I based this article on the developer’s public communications and multiple independent news reports published on December 16, 2025; for primary documents I can fetch and attach the press release and masterplan excerpts on request.
