BMW and Mercedes-Benz , longtime cross-country rivals, are rumored to be working together on the Mercedes A-Class replacement. It has been reported that Mercedes won’t replace the A-Class, its smallest car, but these new rumors suggest that Mercedes could collaborate with BMW by using the Mini platform.
Mercedes had been planning to collaborate with Chrysler on the project, but given the soon-to-be-nonexistence of DaimlerChrysler, such a partnership is highly unlikely, reports Auto Bild.
Mercedes and BMW work together to develop hybrid platforms, so it would be no surprise for the two German powerhouses to get together on another project.
