Mercedes-Benz E-Class has been sold since the 2010 model year, but despite its age the car is still the second most popular model in the lineup that car, the C-Class trailed by just a few thousand units this year. Sales should get a boost in the coming years as a new generation is in the works, as evidenced by the numerous sightings of the prototype in the past few months, and now we have a spy video of some of the more advanced examples.
The new E-Class will go up on a modular platform MRA Mercedes', which debuted in the C-Class in which he managed to bring the weight savings of approximately 220 pounds compared to the outgoing model. Expect the same weight savings for the new E-Class, along with increased stiffness and better availability of alternative powertrains.
E-Class will also benefit from a nine-speed automatic transmission, which has been available in 2015 CLS-Class and the current version of the E-Class is sold abroad. We also heard that the straight-six engine will be offered; This will be a modular design, which allows for the sharing of components and production lines with a smaller four-cylinder and three units are also in the works.
clear focus on efficiency, there will still be a high-performance E63 from Mercedes-AMG. We have spied prototype for it too; under the hood must sit Mercedes-AMG twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8 that has been offered in C63 and GT sports car.
yet to be confirmed, although it appears the possibility of considering the length of this prototype, the new E-Class will have a longer wheelbase than the current one. This car is also expected to once again come in five different bodystyles: sedan, sedan-long wheelbase (for China), wagon, coupe and convertible. A third generation of the CLS-Class is also planned; like the previous two, the new CLS will basically be a four-door coupe version of the new E-Class.
cabin, hoping a design very similar to that in the latest S-Class, with digital display sits atop the center stack and four round air vents underneath. As in the S-Class, the digital display may flow into the main instrument cluster car.
The new E-Class debut in early 2016, with sales to begin in the autumn of that year. This means that we might see the car arrive as 2017 models.
