When Mercedes unveiled the Shooting Brake concept last year we believed there is no way we will see it put into production. But recent spy shots proved us wrong. After all if Ferrari has unveiled the FF, why Mercedes shouldn’t also come with a Shooting Brake version for the CLS?
And while spy photographers have only caught the standard version testing, we made a step forward and imagined a possible AMG version of the future Shooting Brake model. The new model will be the perfect vehicle for those who want to combine a standard family car with the sportiness of the CLS 63 AMG sedan.
Just like with the sedan version you should expect a more aggressive design language defined by a V-shaped bonnet, a more powerful front apron, larger air intakes, an AMG rear apron with black diffuser insert and dual twin chrome tailpipes. And of course that under the hood there will be the same 5.5-liter V8 biturbo engine that delivers 525 HP and 516 lbs-ft of torque and mated to an AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 7-speed sports transmission and Controlled Efficiency stop/start function.
The new CLS Shooting Brake is expected to make its world debut in the summer of 2012, with sales to begin shortly after.
