2015 Mercedes-Benz CLA Shooting Brake Unnecessarily Rendered

Not even two weeks ago we were showing you the first spy photos ever of the upcoming Mercedes-Benz CLA Shooting Brake (X117).

In the following days after that came another, somewhat more clear batch of spy photos, while this week we gave you the CLA Shooting Brake spied from a very up close and personal point of view.

Corroborating all the spyshots with the already known look of the regular CLA C117 and the CLS Shooting Brake X218, you would think that how the CLA Shooting Brake X117 will look would not exactly be a secret anymore.

Well, just in case it was a bit too hard to read between the camouflaged bits on the models caught above, here is a rendering of the fifth and final model that's part of the Mercedes-Benz MFA (Modular Front Architecture) platform, courtesy of X-Tomi Design.

Set to sport the same engines featured on the normal CLA, the Shooting Brake version will obviously have a better luggage compartment access and a slightly improved headroom for the rear passengers, while keeping the cool factor of the original more than alive.

Expect the production version to look pretty much like the above rendering and be unveiled at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show next Spring.
