German magazine Autozeitung features a rendering of a Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class compact SUV on its front page this month.
If such a project indeed exists, GLA will be a compact SUV to go against the Audi Q3 and the upcoming BMW X1 and might end up being based on the platform of the next generation A-Class and B-Class, which means a transverse engine layout.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
WOW! This is by far, one of the best looking compact Merc SUV I’ve seen!

It should kick the VW Tiguan, BMW’s X3, Audi Q5 to the kerb!

I see that Merc is following Audi now by using LEDs..hmm

It looks like NISSAN
Sweet ride.

hmmm… I think this SUV reminded me immediately of Chevloret Captiva.
I will have to see the interior to dismiss me of that idea.

Lawsuit on the use of the letter Q
In early 2005, Nissan sued Audi over the use of the letter “Q” as a model name.
Audi is using the “Q” for the designation of their quattro four-wheel drive system, used in production cars for over twenty-five years (Audi’s quattro trademark is actually an umbrella term for several types of four wheel drive systems developed by Torsen, Haldex Traction AB, and Borg-Warner, the latter being used in the Q7). Nissan’s Infiniti marque had been using Q as the name for sedans (the Q45) and SUVs (the QX4 and QX56) since 1989.
A settlement between Audi AG and Nissan was reached in late 2006. The agreement stipulates that Audi will only use the Q-prefix for two models, the Q5 and the Q7
