Word is Mercedes-Benz will release a CLA Shooting Brake in 2015. This makes us very happy. As you can see from these very good renderings the CLA is perfect for conversion from sedan to estate form. And if you chucked the CLA 45 AMG drivetrain into this sexy wagon we’d be over the moon.

Lol, just when you thought the rear end of the sedan was the most ridiculous / saddest thing you have ever seen, this comes along. Idiotic name too.

Or alternatively you could have said:
‘As you can see from these very good renderings the CLA is perfect for conversion from estate to hearse form’.
Shooting brake has historical significance to English cars converted to wagons in the 60’s and 70’s, but wasn’t that used for 2 door cars?. not sure why they just didn’t call it an estate.
In other news, the rear end of the current golf is less awkward and better looking IMO.
You would wonder if the current competition between BMW and Merc wasn’t who can make the best car but the ugliest. All these A series are just pug ugly, so far this one the worst.
What’s wrong with you guys, it looks awesome! 😛
I agree with Liam. It looks amazing. If only they price it better than the woefully priced CLA.
Saw lots of CLA sedans in Europe over the last couple of months and they look much better in the flesh than they do in photos. Lets hope the same can be said for this..
