I've always wondered what the hell Mercedes is testing when they show certain models towing things. Looks hilarious. Double funny since you will never see an E-Class coupe ever, ever, never towing anything.

Will the E Coupe retain the quad lights while the Sedan doesn't? Or is it trickery?

This thing will need a MAJOR interior overhaul to stay relevant. The current E Coupe's interior is arguably equal to, or even below the C Coupe's interior.

K/A don't be ridiculous. The E Coupe has a better interior than the C Coupe.

Dash wise, I don't think by much of a margin. The seats, and some accessories here and there are, but the interior of the E Coupe is extremely lacking. It's like a cross between the putrid pre-facelift W204 with some true E (Sedan) forms and pieces.

Probably testing the towing capacity, or carrying equipment for the testers if they ever break down.

It looks like they're gone, just like the sedan. Sigh, I really liked them. They were an E's signature.

This article mentioned it's to simulate mountain driving even on flat desert roads.

The front already looks like a good update. I like that MB seems to dismiss the old four eyes face for the E-Class range.

i'm sorry but i don't agree, e-coupe interior is beautiful, an artwork of understated beauty for the most part, and it may come as a bit of a surprise, but i think the e-coupe interior is better than 204 and even 212, as the formers are too much concentrated on straight angulr contours, therefore IMO a bit over styled, 207 on other hand is just right balanced, the only update imo to add aluminuim vents, that could be neat touch. i do think quad-lamps owuld go.

Joke post?
Here in Europe, people use their cars. Towing is part of that.

BTW, for the record, I find the E coupe/cabrio to be the worst MBs in the line up. They look so bad.

e-coupe imo is beautiful except some minor issues, such as size mainly, e-cabrio fair enough lol, has to one of if notworst looking mb.

The E Cabrio looks bad indeed. Looks like it was exclusively designed specifically for 40something year old women.

The Coupe had a lot of promise. I just think it's "cutesiness" ruined it. That's why it's VERY apparent that it's a C-Class, it's too compact and too much "cute factor". To be a real E-Class, it should have been a little larger, almost as big as a 6-Series at least (5 Series Coupe basically), and it should have looked more serious, more strong and mature.

A true E Coupe, with size similar to a 6-Series, would have been in my garage right now, I have no doubt about it.

And you drive an E Class ?

Is that a rhetorical question?

I drive what I deem is a true E-Class, the Sedan, not a C with an E badge on it. Had M-B put the E Coupe in either the true E (Sedans) wheelbase architecture (longer than the 105" C platform it's on), and pushed it to around 190" long (true Mid-Size territory whereas the current E Coupe is between Compact and Mid-Size, shorter than a Mustang, for example), and made it look more "serious" like the Sedan, it would have possibly been the best looking M-B on the market right now.

NevadaJack's looks pretty cool, though?

Anything that Jack gets his hands on is pretty damn cool looking.

Where the hell is he, anyway? How can we put out an APB on the guy to make sure he's alright?

What's up with Jack btw? I he doing ok? Haven't seen him in ages

Don't know what's up with him. His site is still up.
