\"Mercedes-Benz<\/p>\n

In an effort to improve margins through the addition of a greater number of models, Mercedes-Benz is planning a competitor to the BMW 5-Series Gran Trusimo and the upcoming Audi A7 with an estate version of the second-generation CLS. Insides say that plans for a CLS estate have existed since the CLS sedan was launched in 2004.<\/p>\n

The new Mercedes-Benz CLS sedan and estate will be based on a slightly modified E-Class platform and will take design cues from the 2008 ConceptFascination.<\/p>\n

Internally known as the X218, the CLS estate will be produced alongside the CLS sedan at the company’s Sindelfingen plant in Germany from early 2012. Engine choices will range from a line of new V6 and V8 units<\/p>\n
