Following a few key details from Mercedes-Benz and an official teaser image, spy photographers have captured a camouflaged pickup that appears to be the Mercedes-Benz truck.
Automobile European Bureau chief Georg Kacher revealed earlier this year that the truck will essentially be a re-skinned Nissan D23 Navara, a mid-size pickup sold outside the U.S. and not closely linked to the U.S.-market Frontier. The Daimler-Nissan partnership will likely produce a truck that has all of the renowned niceties of Mercedes with the rugged capability of its Nissan bones. The truck is likely to carry the new GLT nameplate; "GL" is now Benz’s prefix for all things SUV and truck, as seen by entries like the GLC and GLS SUVs. |
