Mercedes-Benz will get rid of A-Class

The model is excluded from the line when the life cycle of the actual generation is completed, said Mercedes-Benz Technical Director Marcus Schaefer. This is a consequence of simplifying the compact line. Only four most marginal models will be left in it: Cla, GLA, GLB and G-Class-a small analogue of Gelandewagen, for which you will have to develop a new platform.

A-Class is popular in Europe, but beyond its borders, including important markets in China and the USA, hatchback is sold worse. There, sedans and crossovers are more of interest, so the entire A-Class family and compactiven B-Class will be launched under the knife.

Thus, in the compact line there will be a new CLA in the sedan and a joke-break bodies, as well as the next generation GLA and GLB. In these two families, EQA and EQB electric cars that have failed in the market are integrated.

New Mercedes CLA: China Motor, two chassis and three types of Mercedes-Benz drives for three years will release dozens of new Mercedes-Benz new products.

G-Class, or Baby Gelik, will stand apart. He, unlike other compact Mercedes, will not be based on the MMA platform, as expected. This “trolley” is not suitable for SUVs, said Schoer: it will not allow you to install the wheels of the desired diameter and provide a clearance worthy of Gelandewagen, even small.

At the same time, the Shefer confirmed that the G-Class will receive a “square” design, like the senior SUV, and will look like his mini-version. The new line of “initial” Mercedes-Benz will be presumably formed in the next couple of years.
