Could be renamed the MLE

The 2015 / 2016 Mercedes M-Class has been spied on the Nürburgring.

While this particular prototype has a heavily camouflaged front end, we can see the model will have a more aggressive front bumper with larger air intakes. The styling changes are less noticeable out back but appear to include a new rear bumper and restyled taillights.

We can only get a glimpse of the interior but previous spy photos have shown there will be an upgraded cabin with a freestanding infotainment system.

Engine options are largely expected to carryover but there have been rumors about a new hybrid or plug-in hybrid variant.
