The wagon would be imported, so the margin probably isn’t the same with reasonable pricing.
I’d just make the wagon available to order and let it cost what it costs. I wouldn’t load up dealer lots with them or advertise them hard. Benz never advertises the E wagon. People that want one will go looking. It’s a niche, I just think it’s a profitable one. Volvo makes a great looking wagon but it’s boring to drive. Why not come and blow them up a little with a 540 wagon that has some attitude?
