Auto Express Speculates About The 2009 Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class
|
[06/17/2008] If you're wondering what the future holds for the 2009 Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class, Auto Express has just published an article detailing what they believe we can expect from the new model. According to the publication, the new CLK will be based on a modified C-Class platform, but still marketed as a completely unique model (no surprises there). While some exterior styling elements will be borrowed from the C-Class, Auto Express believes the cabin will be distinctly appointed when compared to the C-Class, thus distinguishing itself from its four-door counterpart.

If you're wondering what the future holds for the 2009 Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class, Auto Express has just published an article detailing what they believe we can expect from the new model. According to the publication, the new CLK will be based on a modified C-Class platform, but still marketed as a completely unique model (no surprises there). While some exterior styling elements will be borrowed from the C-Class, Auto Express believes the cabin will be distinctly appointed when compared to the C-Class, thus distinguishing itself from its four-door counterpart.
As for power, the article goes on to state that two diesels – a 2.0-liter four-cylinder unit generating 204 hp and a 252 hp 3.0-liter V6 – will be available, as will a trio of petrol V6 engines producing 300bhp, 354bhp and 428bhp (the latter of which will feature twin-turbochargers). Mercedes’ 4Matic four-wheel drive system is also expected to be available on the higher-powered variants, as well as the traditional front wheel drive.
And finally, Auto Express concludes by noting that a CLK63 AMG variant with an output of that of the current model (481 hp) will be available, with the possibility of a new CLK63 AMG Black Series as well.
Nothing revolutionary, but for those of you keeping tabs as to the status of next CLK-Class, you've now got the latest.
