Ocean Drive may still hit the streets


Egmcartech reports in a recent article that Mercedes-Benz may change its mind and give the green for production to the beautifully shaped Ocean Drive Concept, a very exclusive luxury cabriolet with 4 doors and a soft top. The main reason for this modification is the fact that Audi will offer a similar model in one or two years from now on, that shall be badged A7. Logically, Mercedes-Benz does not want to stand a chance of losing terrain, judging by the fact that the Stuttgart-based carmaker was the first one to propose and reveal the study of a 4 door cabriolet. If these speculation are true, then we might the Ocean Drive transposed into the body of an S-Class, with all the changes required to turn it into "topless" automobile. The engines to power the Ocean Drive will most likely be V8 and V12 units, with maximum outputs ranging from an impressive 510 HP up to a staggering 604 HP. There is still no information on the price of the car, but it could easily pass over 150,000 euros.
