Spotted: 2012 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class in tests
 The photographers managed to snap these images of the next generation 2012 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class, in Southern Germany, outside a development center where the GL prototype was returning to after a test drive.Though the heavy camo along the front and sides obscure the more cosmetic changes, it seems the GL, a wagon/SUV creation, will get front end styling attributes from the current E-Class. According to reports, the new GL will make use of a stretched version of the next ML's platform, which is also shared with the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the upcoming Dodge Durango. It will feature a redesigned bumper with LED daytime running ...

Mercedes-Benz developing a 9-speed automatic
 Seven-speed automatic transmissions are widely used by luxury automakers including Porsche and Infiniti, while Mercedes-Benz and BMW have also adopted the use of eight-speed automatic gearboxes as well.

It appears that a development of a gearbox with more than ...

Spotted: 2011 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe testing
 The Mercedes Benz was caught working and testing on an all-new version of the C-Class Coupe.Built on the existing C-Class, the C-Class Coupe is a down-sized E-Class Coupe, with a much simpler design than the larger and more expensive E-Class Coupe. The C-Class comes with a redesigned rear end and a front bumper, which is still clad heavily to exploiting the natural surroundings to disguise it. It is almost certain that the nose will get a look similar to that of the new E-Class, possibly with LED daytime running lights below the headlights. The C-Class Coupe has a new two-door body and it will ...
