Spied: 2013 Mercedes CLC
Still in a bit of cladding the baby CLS is starting to show it's real shape

Today our Teamspeed spies managed to snap a few photos of the baby CLS, the new CLC. Codenamed C117, this little 4-door Coupe is based on a longer version from the platform made for the new A and B Class.

This platform will make it possible to offer both front and all-wheel-drive versions. We hear the AMG version of the CLC could feature a power plant with 300-340 wild horses. Other engine options will be a petrol engine in two versions, delivering some 121 and 154 horsepower.

Diesel friends will be able to choose between a new 1.8 liter engine delivering two stages of power, 107 or 134 horsepower. In all cases it will be connected to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission or a six-speed manual. We expect the CLC to hit a show room close to you in 2013.
