Report: Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe approved for production

Here we go again, with a case of: it was only a matter of time. Given that BMW miniaturized their X6 SAV crossover to make the X4, it was only a matter of time until Mercedes-Benz, Audi, or any other competitors would introduce their own. And Mercedes did just that.

According to The Detroit Bureau, Mercedes-Benz approved the production variant to the GLC Coupe Concept, which should be a direct competitor to the BMW X4.

Styled after the larger GLE Coupe, the GLC Coupe should be just like that model, only smaller, more affordable, and less practical.

Expect the use of similar engines as the current C-Class.
