Daimler would like to build a compact Mercedes-Benz with its partner Renault-Nissan according to the Financial Times Deutschland, which failed to provide sources.

Production would start in eastern Europe around 2016. A small SUV could even follow suit and share the same assembly line as some Infiniti vehicles.

Daimler wants to boost sales and attract more young customers by expanding its compact lineup from two current models (A-Class and B-Class) to five including a two-door coupe and later an SUV and shooting brake.

For now, representatives from Daimler and Renault-Nissan declined to comment on the report.
