In the year 2011, mr. Benz started making compact cars using a new FWD platform, and he saw that it was good. Eight years later, a coupe arrived!
That's right, Mercedes-Benz is going to make a compact coupe that will rival the Audi TT in 2019, and this is what it could look like. Theophilus Chin created these renderings of what he calls the A-Class Coupe by combining several other concepts, including the GLC Coupe.
We like the outcome. No, we love the result, especially since it's so much more distinctive than the Audi TT.
The B-Class was the first car built on the MFA platform, followed by the GLA, CLA coupe and Shooting Brake and A-Class. Plans for the future of the compact range also include a GLB model, which we detailed earlier today.
Why does Mercedes want to build a small coupe with two doors when four-door versions are so popular? Probably because the Audi TT has sold about 600,000 units in a relatively short amount of time.
This baby coupe probably isn't going to be designated the "A-Class Coupe". Instead, they could call it the SLA, making it a part of the sportscar range (SLC, SL).
We can never forget that the Concept A-Class was presented in Shanghai as a 3-door, a bit like the Scirocco. But while the VW coupe is sexy and has a big boot, a sleeker design is needed to attract lifestyle customers. The rumored 400 horsepower 2-liter turbo engine should also suit a competition with the TT RS.
