Progressive Activity Sedan: F6
Very reliable sources says it will have the rear of the X6. It should be very fuel efficient, and four inches lower than the R-Class. Engines arent confirmed but I expect a revised version of the twin-turbo I-6. I think it would easily outdue the R-Class in sales.
This HUCKFELDT is almost always DEAD ON with his illustrations..

I don't see how it's an R-Class competitor with only two rows, shorter (less headroom), and less cargo space. This is just a weird-looking wagon, as far as I'm concerned (and less capacious, at that, due to the funky rear).

Where have I seen that car? Where....
Oh yeah!
I don't quite get what the marketing pitch / niche for that vehicle is?
Is it a 5-door to compete with an A3?
Or is it a wagon to compete with an A4 avant?
Or is it a "crossover?" I don't even know what that entails, but the sloped trunk makes for little functional trunk space.
And yes, I understand that's body cladding. I was just poking a little fun. But the comments still pertain to the overall dimensions in the artist's renderings.

I don't get this thing either. It's more like a tall Merc CLS than an R-class-alike. Does the R-class even sell decently? I don't see them often at all. This just looks like a pointless Bimmer to me.

Seriously though, when did it become necessary for passion to be logical? I doubt many people think my passion for the 49ers is logical. (Especially the last few years.
) But that's the idea, no?
