The new E-Class is all about power. Every shape, every contour exudes strength and athletic grace. Yet its design is unmistakably Mercedes with lines rooted in the car’s classic origins. The tall, louvered radiator grille that hints at its classic lineage connects gracefully with the modern, with its arrow shaped styling. Sharply contoured headlamps curve seamlessly into the vehicle flanks, seemingly carved from one integral unit. The broad front bumper that also houses the fog lamps and new daytime driving lights further enhances the suggestion of strength.



Viewed in profile, the E-Class looks like it’s about to take off, with a raked back look accentuated by the contour line that runs upward from front bumper to rear wing. An extra-long wheelbase augments the suggestion of power waiting to be unleashed. The sharply contoured rear wings look like muscular shoulders, complementing the broad, sporty rear bumper, and completing the sensation of effortless superiority.

The slick interplay between design lines extends to the E-Class wheels, which sport five twin-spokes that radiate from the hub enhancing the aura of strength. Made from light alloy the wheels offer the benefit of greater strength while decreasing weight. The aerodynamically optimised light-alloy wheels reduce airflow separation and flow losses in the area of the wheels. Wheel spoilers on the front and rear wheels further enhance performance by improving the airflow around the tyres and reducing lift.
