Mercedes CLY - The Star Looks Little

Now that the A-Class has grown a lot, Mercedes
intends to add a smaller model to its range ...
although it will be patient

Return to head of German premium brands: it is the obsession with Mercedes. An objective that passes including an extension of the range down through the development of a city on a shared basis with Renault.

With their length considerably less than 4 meters, the first two generations of Class A could be considered urban. This is clearly not the case in the current model: its 4.29 m rank among the compact.
A choice that he succeeds very well indeed, as order books are full. But at the same time a place is released for a smaller Mercedes. A Star that will approach about 4 m and take the time to land, nothing to look forward to before 2016. It is therefore too early to disclose his name. However, the name CLY recently filed by the brand seems to hold the rope.

With a length of about 3.50 m, the future Smart
Forfour keep a rare compactness. While
surprising with its sliding doors

In designing this new entry-level, Daimler will use its agreement with Renault-Nissan. It is a common platform for both groups, JC1 (Joint Compact 1), which will be used, as the GLB SUV. However, no question of adopting the popular Clio a position, despite a similar template. Not given, the Mercedes CLY want chic, customizable, and it should not be offered in three-door. With in his line of sight, the future Mini, Audi A1, without forgetting the Citro�n DS3 and Alfa Romeo MiTo. But this CLY could also give rise to a cousin badged Smart, a larger and ruffed the next Forfour (the cons) tad.
