Rumors – Is This The 2015 Mercedes-Benz MLC?
Is this the rumored 2015 Mercedes-Benz MLC? Well, no. It’s the 2012 Mercedes M-Class, which is supposedly coming to production next year. But according to Automotive News Europe, “the German automaker will produce the model, which will carry the name MLC, at its US plant in Tuscaloosa, Alabama where the M-Class (ML-Class in North America) range is built.”
The vehicle, which has a code name of C166, is scheduled to make it to production by 2015. It will also be a direct competitor to the BMW X6.
According to World Car Fans, BMW’s X6 has been “a very successful variant of the X5 SUV model.” BMW sold 102,178 units of X5 in 2010, along with 46,404 X6 units. Seems like Mercedes-Benz has an uphill battle in front of them.
