A GT C ROADSTER is among a range of new or updated Benzes to feature in 2017, according to a leaked Mercedes document published on the UK’s Autocar website.

The new GT C is expected to feature a folding fabric roof, just like the model it essentially replaces; the SLS Roadster.

The roadmap document outlines other models for 2017, including the extension of the new-generation Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan with Cabriolet and Coupe versions – plus a new All Terrain model that is likely to mimic jacked-up passenger cars such as the VW Passat Alltrack and Subaru Outback.

The GT Roadster would become the sixth convertible in Mercedes-Benz’s range, joining the SLK and SL sports cars, and the Cabriolet versions of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, E-Class and S-Class.
