The new Mercedes-Benz E-Class
Local Mercedes-Benz distributor Auto Nation Group (ANG) unveiled the new E-Class last June 27 at the Grand Ballroom of the Shangri-La, Bonifacio Global City.
The new E- class has the hallmarks of a modern Mercedes- Benz— elongated hood, a coupe- style roof, and wide- shouldered tail end. Its sparkly LED head and tail lights, alloy wheels and the trademark threepointed star give the new E- class a sleek, sporty elegance.
The E-class also offers more room with a larger wheelbase and overall length. Its interiors have warm shades of brown leather and open-pore wood accents.
The elegance of the E- class is complemented by intelligent, latest technological advancements.
Its passengers are treated to ergonomic ally designed seats, which guarantee a comfortable ride. The E- Class is powered by a 2.0L inline fourcylinder petrol engine with the new 9G- TRONIC nine-speed automatic transmission, promising fuel efficiency and low noise levels. There is a pair of touch-sensitive pads on the steering wheel manageable by both thumbs and a Touchpad by the center console. The Touchpad allows the driver to easily access the E-Class’ infotainment system.
During its launch in the Philippines, the E-Class drew a crowd that is just as elegant and exceptional. These were the type of people driven in life by the same philosophy behind the E-Class—driving past the dreamers and leaving those who choose to stay behind through intelligence and elegance made for tomorrow, already here, today.
