Report: C-Class Grows For Next Generation, Will Be Based On F800 Concept

So apparently the F800 Concept wasn't the basis for the new CLS, but rather the next generation C-Class. Apparently it's growing to make room for a B-Class Hatchback and sedan, and a smaller CUV. Also, the F800 Grille will be incorporated into the next-generation E-Class.

I'm not really happy with this news, as I think the C-Class has already gotten big enough and should stay that way. If you look at the current generation A4 you can see that it already begins to encroach on A6 territory.

What do you guys think?
