Earlier this week, it was reported that Mercedes-Benz was toying with the idea of a topless version of the GLC Coupe, which was revealed last week at the New York International Auto Show.
To spur your imagination on that front, here’s what a drop-top GLC could well look like, as imagined by rendering wiz Theophilus Chin. Takes some getting used to, and likely not everyone’s cuppa either.
It’s not a certainty, of course – word is that there’s little space left in the Benz line-up for a convertible SUV at the moment, and for it to be built, another model in the range would have to be discontinued first. Still, the automaker says that the idea of having its own Range Rover Evoque Convertible-equivalent sounds tempting.
Of late, the brand seems to be opening cards like there’s no tomorrow (the reported move to significantly increase AMG-badged models this year is a good example), and that proliferation seems to be carrying over to topless models as well.
The last month alone has seen the arrival of the first-ever Mercdes-AMG C 63 Cabriolet in New York and the A205 C-Class Cabrio in Geneva, so one really shouldn’t discount the possibility of a topless Benz SUV becoming a reality.
