Mercedes is going back to Brazil. They're expected to announce plans to return to Brazilian production in 2016. They plan to set up a plant in Sao Paulo to assemble the C-Class and GLA.
It looks like GLA and CLA production are going to spread globally to service their respective markets. Although Mercedes said recently they are still mulling Mexican production of the GLA. Mercedes is considering moving C-class production to Tuscaloosa so its possible GLA does roll down the same line. However with C-class moving to Tuscaloosa it doesn't seem so far fetched that Nissan could be building the 4 pots at their Tennessee engine facility.
The GLA like the CLA will be different in each market. A German CLA/GLA will not be the same as an American CLA/GLA....
