We had it in the news earlier that the next Mercedes Benz B-Class platform will be used for a number of different cars. This is probably one of them! The Mercedes BLK Crossover which slots right under the GLK in every aspect and rivals BMW X1 and Audi Q3.  It’s smaller than the GLK but offers as much space inside, It also will be cheaper than its slightly bigger brother.

Mercedes BLK will be mechanically identical to the next gen B-class and uses the same range of engines, From a 2.0 liter turbo diesel with 175, 204 and 225 hp a large 2.0 liter petrol with 204 or 238 hp.

The BLK will be around 5000 Euros cheaper than the GLK which makes it a very good choice for everyone who is seeking a compact SUV, but it might cause some trouble to the GLK market. Is Mercedes gonna shoot one of his legs again?! We won’t find out untill 2012 because that’s when it’ll come!
