' Cd 0.17 ' ?

When the car made it's debut, M-B reported Cd 0.1816 for it. If they now claim Cd 0.17, is there a link to an explanation for the more liberal drag coefficient?
Also, MOTOR TREND reported that the A-pillars and side mirrors did not meet EU safety standards, and to meet them, the Cd would have to be downgraded to a higher value.
