2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK spied

By George Skentzos |

Well ahead of its expected debut which is still more than three years away, our spy photographers have captured a glimpse of a Mercedes-Benz SLK mule in frozen northern Scandinavia.

This third generation SLK prototype – while heavily camouflaged – is expected to be sharper and more upright than the current model which it is set to replace.

As a result, it is likely to lose its Formula 1 inspired front end in favour of a radically new design, emulating the subtle design trends emerging throughout the Mercedes range.

New to the range will be LED daytime running lights, with a metal folding roof to remain as standard.

    I don’t see any changes but for the grille that’s the reason why it’s covered like that.
