2009 Mercedes-Benz CLK Coupe spied

5 Sep, 2008 8 Comments

As these latest spy shots reveal, Mercedes-Benz is hard at work on its next generation CLK.

Both the CLK saloon and convertible variants will be based on the new C-class platform but with a few added refinements to meet the expectations of the somewhat more ambitious coupé-drivers.

These new shots reveal the shape of the headlights for the first time, somewhat resembling the new E-class rather than the C-class on which it is based.

The powertrain on the other hand will be lifted from the C-class and will include a V8 unit for the CLK500.

Our sources inform us the new CLK saloon is due to hit dealers across Europe in summer 2009 with the convertible to follow shortly after.

I thought the CLK Coupe and Convertible were built off the E Class Platform?

Hence why the point was made in the article that it would be based on the C-class for this generation?

From memory, CLK has always being based on C-class but styled to look like E-class to commend a price premium well over C-class.

Hopefully they can make the new CLK handle well as the current C-class is quite a promising platform to start work with. Wonder if the next AMG version will still use the 6.2 V8, or switch to some form of turbo charged V8.
