<p>It seems that the upcoming Shanghai Auto Show is <strong>THE</strong> hot spot for manufacturers to launch their new creations. Big names like Maserati and Porsche will be showcasing their hot new sport sedans - even Bugatti has something line-up to present in China. Rather, like the highly appraised Geneva, Shanghai is set to feature some pretty hot automobiles too! ~</p>
<p>Not missing the fun, Mercedes is set to release, yet another instalment from the A-Class chassis. Named the GLA Concept, it simply looks almost identical to the A-Class, but with a stance of a sports utility vehicle (SUV). This will sit in the hierarchy, below the GLK, however it sets a more athletic outlook compared to the GLK. Definitely more rugged looking than the A and CLA at the same time.</p>

<p>Nevertheless, the GLA will feature the 4Matic all wheel drivetrain, coupled with the same engines on sale today on the A-Class. We assume an AMG version would eventually take shape, which will add some spice to this car. The 2.0 turbocharged engine from the A45 is what we'll be expecting most.</p>
<p>Interior wise, its again, identical to the A and CLA, however, the seats look alot more durable for rough usage. As it is designed to tackle more off-road activities, the GLA attains better underbody protection, higher ride height from greater ground clearance and larger wheels and tyres at the same time.</p>

<p>We reckon that Mercedes is committed to elongate their line-up, and making full use of the new chassis. However, is this a marketing ploy? Despite already making more than 20 different models at the moment, is this the right move? - The market is already spoilt for choice, adding to it, sooner or later, entering a Mercedes showroom will be like entering a supermarket.</p>
<p>But we love the GLA, the production spy-shots perceive to look almost identical to the concept. Tentatively, it will go on sale by next year!</p>
