Mercedes-Benz calls 2016 “the year of the SUV” and has announced a further expansion of its already large collection of SUVs and crossovers by 2020. The All-Terrain nameplate gives the German brand access to a previously unexplored niche, which is the high riding station wagons. This year was the start for the E-class All-Terrain, but new year a similar concept will be used on the C-class too.
The new C-class wagon with the taller ride height and cladding of a crossover, will compete again the Audi A4 Allroad, Volvo V60 CrossCountry and high spec versions of the Subaru Outback, the new Buick Regal TourX/Opel Insignia Country Tourer and VW Passat Alltrack
