2018 Bringing Changes....
Have just been advised that our 2017 Canadian AMG45 slated for March produciton is not happening and that a "refreshed" 2018 will come in its' place. Dealer has no idea of packages, pricing or anything. Seems that either January or Februatry will be the run out for the 2017 MY. Our dealer seemed surprised and pointed out that they knew a refreshed GLA was coming but did not believe it would happen until at least May. produciton/July delivery. One of the reasons given was GLA sales are not great and higher quality trim is needed to compete with the BMW X1 and Audi Q3 plus there is a new version of COMMAND that is supposed to be a material improvement (had better be as current verison of COMMAND is at least one generaion behind the pack in my view). He also indicated there are rumours that the AMG45 will get a bit more power to compete with the RS3 that is coming Canada shortly.
Has anyone else got information as to when the refreshed North American GLA will be forthcoming, what the changes really are or seen the Dealer Order Guide for either Canada or USA?
