Anyone up for a CLA coupe? It would make sense for Mercedes to explore the option. Consider that BMW is developing the 2 series GC to compete with the CLA, yet the 2 series also has a vicious RWD coupe variant. So even if a CLA coupe were to make its way into the fold it would essentially be left to limp into battle with the BMW.

But enough wide eyed speculation, here are the renderings...

I could do with a little more rake from the back glass, and longer towards rear. something more fastback, along the lines of the new 4 series with a short deck. Or a coupe/hatch kind of medley like so...

I saw some CLA coupe renderings before, they never looked as good as these! If Mercedes can actually pull this off with more of a sleek and lower roof line then they will have a winner on their hands.

Regardless of whether the CLA is truly a coupe or not, I don't think it needs a two door version. The CLA already looks great as it is, and like I said before, the back seat space is already lacking space, and taking away the back doors would just make it feel even more cramped.

If you don't care at all about your back seat than why not get a little roadster instead?

most people buying a coupe, especially a compact coupe won't care much about rear passenger space since they wont be using it that much. It's basically a car mainly for one person.

The CLA already seems like it will be a success, they might as well add a coupe version.

But should Mercedes also make the CLA coupe come standard with a FWD setup or should it just be RWD with optional 4-matic?
