Mercedes-Benz Classe C IV Coupé - Prj. C205 (Spy)

[Pandino]

We've already seen the 2014 Mercedes C-Class in prototype form on numerous occasions, but we haven't heard much about the C-Class Coupe until now.

Set to debut in 2015 or 2016, the C-Class Coupe will reportedly have an evolutionary design with LED-infused headlights, a more upright grille and flared wheel arches. We can also expect a restyled rear-end that will give the car a "more dynamic stance."

Like the sedan, the coupe will grow in size as its wheelbase is rumored to be three inches (76mm) longer than the current model. This should result in a more accommodating cabin with additional rear seat legroom and extra trunk space.

The Mercedes C-Class Coupe hasn't been around for

very long but a new report is indicating the next-generation model will drop

that name and revive the CLK moniker.

Set to be offered as a coupe and

convertible, the CLK will reportedly be a "highly emotional driver’s car" that

combines attractive styling with a sporty driving experience.

Engine options remain unconfirmed but are

rumored to include:

• A 2.2-liter CDI four-cylinder with outputs of

  170 HP (125 kW), 204 HP (150 kW) and 231 HP (170 kW)

• A turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder with

  156 HP (114 kW)

• A turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder with

  outputs of 184 HP (135 kW), 211 HP (155 kW) and 252 HP (185 kW)

• A twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 with 333 HP (245

  kW)

• A 4.0-liter V8 with 462 HP (340 kW)

The model is also expected to ride on the

company's modular rear-wheel drive architecture (MRA)

which should result in a roomier cabin and a lighter curb weight. Speaking of

the latter, Mercedes has reportedly decided to make the doors, roof, front

fenders and trunk lid out of lightweight aluminum.

The Mercedes CLK is expected to undercut

the Audi A5 and BMW 4-Series when it is introduced in 2015 or 2016.

Sembrerebbe strano e un po' in controsenso rispetto alle notizie note e confermate da MB riguardo la semplificazione della nomenclatura modelli.

Perdonate la non finezza, ma quei fari posteriori (così come su S Coupé e GLC) mi fanno proprio schifo

Il camuffo à la Serie 6 E63 mi mancava
