Merc X6 fighter confirmed


There were rumours that Mercedes-Benz may be preparing a rival for BMW's X6 but so far there are no spyshots or rendering to even hint at the truth.

Interestingly, Mercedes-Benz decided to give us a hint at their Tuscaloosa manufacturing facility.

During an announcement of new investments of USD350 million to add a new line for an all-new addition to their model line-up, they decided to put a picture of a car under cover as the backdrop and it looks like a hatchback or fastback.

Since Tuscaloosa is used for manufacturing Merc SUVs and the R-Class, I guess it is confirmation that the new expansion is to accommodate the new coupe-SUV, a rival for the BMW X6.
