I thought that 1,000 cars per year marked the boundary for low-volume type approval, but it looks like I'm wrong, according to this:

the type approval limit is 1500, which would explain why you read they are looking to go to 1400.

Either way, I still think that keeping the model range as small as possible makes sense for MMC - although having said that a Plus Four 4 seater would be nice!
