Leaked - 2012 Mercedes M-Class brochure shot
A low-res brochure shot showing the rear of the next generation M-Class has made its way to the web. Hosted on Burlappcars.com, the 5-seat SUV looks to have taken more than a few design touches from the E-Class wagon. The brochure scan also indicates that the vehicle is very nearly done.
There's no shortage of test mule footage on the internet. IAB has carried spy shots (leaked image of the front-end) and a complete video of the car during various stages of testing in Europe. Expected to bow in during the Frankfurt Motor Show in September, the latest line of gasoline units (3.5-liter V6 and 4.6-liter V8) will join the V6 oil burner at launch. A 5.5-liter V8 from tuning arm AMG could also make the cut.
Mercedes India told a newspaper that it plans to assemble the M-Class in India. Could the new M-Class be introduced in India as a CKD model by the end of 2011?
