^ not sure why, but this looks exciting. 4 cylinder affair only or will there be a V6 option?

I4; that engine bay wasn't designed to accommodate a V6.

^^^ Great view of my city right there...

I'm not big on the exterior styling, but I like this interior better than the MB.

So is this made on the same assembly line as the Benz CLA and GLA???

I had the chance to sit in one, it was rather weird. Infiniti body with a Benz interior. I didn't feel like I was in an Infiniti at all from behind the wheel, but rather a cheaper model Benz. Fit/finish was great, but the interior styling was very black and very dull IMO. Nothing at all like the exterior, which continues that tradition of crazy/wild styling Infiniti has been using on their SUV's since the mid 2000's FX.

Definitely nicer than the GLA which it is based on but that's not saying much b/c the GLA is a complete and utter ugly POS. The stitched leather on the dashboard is a nice touch.

Love this angle. The color isn't half bad either.

The exterior is very organic while the interior leaves me cold. The Mercedes parts bin window switches and climate controls look too forced.

I think the next CT will be following this template. Retain the hatch, raise the ride height, add a turbo powertrain, and an optional AWD.
