What a GREAT CAR damn.... now bring the E500d :>

 

[Centurion]

It's god NFC as well. How brilliant and perfect of my Samsung S6 Edge+. A bonus would be if that's 10Watt 2.4a USB port.

On the left an E 500 and on the right a 500 E with Porsche engine. They might appear in an upcoming movie, according to some rumors.

What a tremendous idea @BMW3GT Yes, Mercedes-Benz, bring that 500d engine (350-380 PS and >750 Nm torque).

 

[Wolfgang]

^ Agreed. Some previously posted rumors. It might take a while, though.

E400d will come (~313hp or 340hp) and the E500d (400hp+) is indeed planned since Audi has the V8 e-turbo and BMW will release a quad turbo I6.

 

[Mick Briesgau]

Imagine what it would be like, cruising in a W213 with such a I6 diesel under the bonnet. Must feel like sailing in your own personal battleship... I love it allready.

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN! That just looks good. Loving this particular woodtrim and choco leather combo. I bet dark blue leather with white piping with this wood trim would look fantastic.

The interior of the E is great but the center console from the C seems to be one design flaw.
The centerpiece is really designed as a stand alone item for woods/ metal etc, because C does not have elsewhere on the dash. The E has this large slab of wood on the dash that simply conflicts with that Centerpiece from the C. It might have been better if the new E featured a console pod for the center buttons like the S coupe. With this design move the central (wood) panel could have been smaller and would not have looked as vulgar for different veneers.

I don't believe this has been mentioned before, but the W213's lower (non-functioning) air intakes remind me of the Macan's.

Also reminds me of the GLC, which appears to have the same chief engineer as the E BTW.

MB might surprise us at the upcoming Beijing auto show.

This car is for the Chinese. So Mercedes got to do it in one of the Chinese motor show

 

[Merc1]

Hopefully between NYC and Beijing we will see the C63 Cabrio, GLC Coupe and the Long E-Class. Asking for the "43" versions of the E and GLC might be asking for too much lol.

Yeah, BMW has had that since the E60.

 

[Mick Briesgau]

Yeah, BMW has had that since the E60.

Don't know what you're talking about. I'm talking about a I6 diesel with 350-380 ps and > 750 Nm torque. Not about a E60/535d with max 286 ps and only 560 Nm torque. Even the current MB 350d has already 620 Nm torque.

 

[klier]

Don't know what you're talking about.

Try harder. I was talking about powerful I6 diesels in general, not to mention that 286 hp in a relatively light car was as powerful as one could get back in the day. An MB V8 gasoline had 306 hp back then.

But yeah, back on topic, an E500d sounds wonderful. Bring it on!

Agreed. I don't think they would offer this elsewhere for fear of jeopardising S-Klasse sales.

 

[vios1]

The E class Maybach or LWB will only looks good in classic grille. Let's see how it goes when it is released.

Testing in Sweden.

2018 Mercedes-Maybach E-Class Spied

After Mercedes-Benz invested close to €1 billion in the development of the mid-cycle facelift of the W212, the German manufacturer upped the ante even further with the unveiling of the W213 model. The fifth generation of the E-Class is a great leap forward in its segment. One of the most curious aspects about the new Mercedes-Benz E-Class is that a Maybach-branded model is coming.

You’ve heard that right. The pick of the bunch will be out of most people’s reach, but look at the size of the rear doors. Our spy photographers caught the 2018 Mercedes-Maybach E-Class testing in snowy Sweden and the dominant characteristic comes in the form of a longer wheelbase compared to the regular E-Class.

That said, the Maybach treatment has two more tricks up its sleeve. The first comes in the form of an ultra-luxurious cabin. A lot of money can be spent on the standard E-Class to turn the interior into an office on wheels, but the Maybach will bring more exclusive goodies. These include added sound deadening for a serene rear seat experience, high-quality wood and metal trim, as well as soft Nappa leather with Maybach crests embossed on the headrests.

As for the second trick, the 2018 Mercedes-Maybach E-Class will get an array of gadgets tailored for the jet set. Look forward to a superior air filtration system, cup holders with Peltier technology for cooling or warming drinks, and a high-fidelity Burmester 3D surround sound system with tweeters that can twirl out from the rear door panels toward the passengers in a graceful spiral motion.

On the powertrain front, the 2018 Mercedes-Maybach E-Class is expected to come with the engine from the range-topping E 400 4Matic. More specifically, a 6-cylinder twin-turbo with either 333 horsepower (245 kW) and 480 Nm (354 lb-ft) or 367 horsepower (270 kW) and 520 Nm (383 lb-ft) of get-up-and-go to all four wheels. Either that or the 4.0-liter V8 in the upcoming E 500 model. Sorry, folks, but a 4-cylinder or a turbo diesel are not on this Maybach's agenda.
