Take Notes: Mercedes-benz Announces New Nomenclature by OyelSheik: 7:52pm On Nov 11, 2014
The rumors were true: Mercedes-Benz is launching a new nomenclature for almost everything beyond the core A-, B-, C-, E- and S-classes. If it sounds daunting, know that the new names basically affect only the vehicles that we currently know as the ML, the GLK, the GL, and the SLK.

Under the new plan, crossovers and SUVs will start with “GL” and be followed by a letter than aligns them with the core car models—think of the A-class-based GLA. Further up in the lineup, this means the GLK will turn into the GLC-class and the M-class becomes the GLE-class. The GL-class, which is close to the S-class in terms of lineup positioning, will be called the GLS-class. When these SUVs get a ridiculous coupe-like spin-off, they will get a trailing “Coupe” designation. That means that the upcoming M-class-based SUV coupe-thing will be called the GLE Coupe.
