Apparently the B-Class AMG we talked about right below this story isn’t exactly going to be a B-Class AMG, according to a new story by Auto Express. What AMG will actually be doing is developing a compact “CLS lite” about 4,500mm long based on the next generation B-Class chassis. That’s just slightly shorter than an E90 BMW 3-Series.
The car is known internally in AMG as the C117 EVO and is expected to be priced around £30,000, much cheaper than the £50,000 C63 AMG. Although the earlier Automotive News report says the car is likely to have a high performance four cylinder engine, Auto Express reports that the car will be a “32” AMG car, powered by a 3.2 litre Comprex pressure wave supercharged V6.

Guys, do check out other sources….the front part is horrible!!!
Agree with you. The front looks too monstrous! The whole car look very Hyundai, i -flow!
Agreed with Black Dog. But I bet there will be a comment later saying exactly the opposite
love the SLS grille idea, but I hope they shrink the size of it, and integrate it more nicely with the rest of the stuff at the front.
Looks like a Volvo with a 3 star slapped on it..
hyundai????
Wow .. looks like the new Hyundai Sonata ……

Looks as controversial as the current B class.
Mercedes needs this car to compete with BMW 1 series in the compact sports car market
This car looks 'VERY KOREAN'.

although the nose job is a kinda awkward to my eyes, but this hybrid merc with "pintu van" concept is quite a nice package.
B-class is a sedan?
Isn't B-Class a small mpv from MB? So confusing..
