Mercedes MST





Nothing is finally decided. But the secret plan is that Mercedes Benz will bring the MST and the Smart SUV , two further 4x4-Models in 2006 on the market.
The Crossover is located in the medium sized segment against the BMW X3 , which in the first production year 75,000 pieces are to be sold. Under it comes the SUV from Smart. Both models are based technically on the Mercedes Benz C-class with all-wheel drive, both will be built in Brazil .

I like it a lot, but it doesn't really fit into the MB styling theme

Looks exactly like a new MDX from the back. Kinda looks cheap up front too. Not really feeling it.

This "Luxury Cute-ute" segment is growing...We have the X3, Freelander, upcoming volvo XC50 and now this. Lincoln could easily enter this market w/ a luxo Escape, but I doubt they would want to w/ the slow selling Aviator

Are there any car companies left that can produce a car with a decent front end? Jesus that thing looks excellent but the front of it makes it look like something out of a cartoon. I havn't seen a new car in a long time with a nice front end.
