Mercedes-Benz seems to be in a desperate rush to cover any automotive niche still left untouched. Following the reveal of the new A-Class and B-Class, the year 2013 will see the arrival of the baby CLS - the CLC-Class. Design-wise, the compact 4-door coupe will be inspired by both the F 800 Style Research Car and its bigger brother in the portfolio. The C 117, as it's internally dubbed, is planned to reach USA nearing 2014, whereas the other regions will get the new model earlier, shortly after the official premiere. Based on the spectacular Mercedes Frontwheel Architecture (MFA) powertrain, the new CLC will adopt the entire technologycal package from the A- and B- classes, which means a good dose of efficient power, resolute dynamics and a high-grade safety concept.
