The normal G isn't going anywhere. Merc is investing hundreds of millions in updating it for the 2017 model year. This GLB will be a ~$36,000 entry-level, smaller crossover. The affluent people who buy the $100,000+ G-Wagen know the difference, and will continue to buy the G. The GLB really seems like an even more…

That concept previews the next G-Wagen more than the GLB. Expect the G to be just as rugged an SUV as ever — just updated in necessary places.

It'll be bigger than the Renegade. Car reports all GLBs will have seven seats in three rows.

I get what you're saying. But Lexus's founding LS was able to make an impression through direct S-Class combat.

The Benz. That Cadillac looks like the Batmobile. Which is cool, but not too sophisticated.

Pretty good summation.

I see it!

I don't mean to be rude. I appreciate the time and effort the gentleman put in.

I call it space porn.

Lies! ;-)

I would have said GT, but we've seen it and it's coming, so I thought it didn't qualify.

I'm sure it'll be some bomb ass headquarters, tho.

They don't want to see UAW representation. They're publicly "neutral," as the quote says. But the German union says internally, there's Daimler resistance to Alabama unionization.

Nice try…

Re DaimlerChrysler — FCA still relies on the old E-Class platforms underpinning the 300, Charger, Challenger and Maseratis. Of course they've been updated and tweaked over the years, but it continues to save FCA money. Developing a brand-new FR platform would be hundreds of millions.

Toyota is a great example of auto globalization. They sell incredibly well throughout the world, and they don't need a million brands to do so.

How quickly they would pillage Jaguar and Land Rover's platforms.

I, for one, love a simple Lamborghini. So I find this cool. The Veneno was way over-the-top for me.

I think they did.

For those who want a "McLaren," but don't want a McLaren.
