Mercedes-Benz To Add C-Class Hatchback To Lineup

We’re all familiar with the long-running Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan, coupe and cabrio. The German automaker’s entry-level rear-wheel-drive model and BMW 3 Series fighter has always managed to sell well, but it’s often times fallen a bit short when compared directly against the Bimmer. But the next-gen C-Class is just around the corner and based on initial rumors, this will be the most formidable model yet. Unlike previous C-Class generations, there will be a fourth body style in the lineup.

My guess would be to address European market's preference, not the US market

I agree ... this is probably a "Not for USA Market" product.

Which is a real shame, because my daily driver today is the C230K Coupe ... the predecessor that Mercedes did sell here in the USA for a few years and all I want is another one.

here we go again... another flop if it comes to the US, which it likely won't

WE ARE?!

I've never seen a C-Class cabrio, and the coupe is hardly "long-running".

sorry...long day...had to argue semantics.

technically, the CLK was made from the C-class, just styled like the E-class 1996-2009...that's a pretty long time.
