奔驰为应对新一代奥迪A7和保时捷Panamera,正在开发其竞争车型,目前该车最初细节浮出水面。这款车暂定名称为GT4,将基于下月底CLS,不过该车将采用类似AMG GT的独特造型。车辆内部可搭乘四名乘客,采用专门开发的内装以使其与CLS形成完全不同的风格。虽然A7和Panamera都可提供各种引擎,但GT4只提供4.0升V8双涡轮增压引擎,功率有367千瓦/500马力和441千瓦/600马力两种。该车的很多部件,包括制动,悬挂和转向系统都取自下一代E63 AMG S。另外预计还将配备自适应空气悬挂,动态引擎架和电控锁止差速器。如果一切进展顺利,GT4将于2019年发布,在欧洲起价在12万至14万欧元(约合人民币79.2万至92.4万元)。

Mercedes Porsche Panamera competitor comes into focus
New details are starting to emerge about Mercedes' upcoming Audi A7 and Porsche Panamera competitor.
According to Autobild, the model - tentatively known as the GT4 - will be based on the next-generation CLS and feature unique styling that mimics the Mercedes-AMG GT. The car is also slated to have a four-seat interior with unique components to help further distance itself from the CLS.
While the A7 and Panamera are offered with a variety of different engines, the GT4 will reportedly be a high-performance affair that is available with a turbo-turbo 4.0-liter V8 that has outputs of approximately 500 PS (367 kW) and 600 PS (441 kW).
The model is also slated to borrow a number of parts - including the brakes, suspension and system steering - from the next-generation E63 AMG S. We can also expect an adaptive air suspension, dynamic engine mounts and an electronic locking differential - among other things.
If everything pans out, the GT4 will be launched in 2019 and cost somewhere between €120,000-140,000.
