Daimler May Be Developing Lineup of MINI Rivals: Report
Eyeing BMW’s success with MINI, Daimler might be hoping to cash in on small car appeal even more with a product line to take on it’s rival’s smaller series of products.
Previous reports suggest there will be an “X-Class” crossover sitting below the GLA (based on the CLA and A-Class) which is set to be unveiled later this month during the Shanghai Auto Show. But now German publication Focus is reporting that there could be even more MINI fighters, built on the same MFA architecture.
