By

Mercedes Formula One drivers Michael Schumacher and Nico Rosberg will reveal the new DTM AMG Mercedes C-Coupé during Frankfurt’s IAA on Thursday next week. Watch a video where Gary Paffett gives us a sneak peek of the new car.

“I was at the film and photo shoot for the new AMG Mercedes C-Coupé recently and was seriously impressed by my ‘company car’ for next season. I can’t wait to begin testing very soon,” said Paffett.

Mercedes is going to use the new C-Class Coupé next year with the new DTM regulations, replacing the current C-Class sedan.

“This new-generation vehicle, based on our Mercedes-Benz C-Coupé, will mark the introduction of an even more spectacular racing car from the start of 2012. I am certain that the spectators will get their money’s worth from the three-way fight between Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz in the DTM next year,” said Haug.
