Mercedes-Benz Introduces E-Class Cabriolet
01.20.10
By Ari Cheren
Mercedes-Benz introduced two noteworthy cars at this year’s Detroit Auto Show, premiering their new cabriolet E-Class, and powerhouse coupe SLS AMG.
We’re big fans of the new E-Class lineup, with its fresh styling and crisp lines. But for those of us lucky enough to live in sunny Southern California, the one thing missing from the line-up was a convertible version of the E-Class. Well the folks at Mercedes put things straight this week in Detroit, when they debuted their new cabriolet E-Class at the North American Auto Show. The car is due in U.S. showrooms this Spring, just in time for long drives down PCH.
The new cabriolet has nice lines and will surely be a hit with the OC beach set; one feature that will have everyone applauding is the new Aircap wind deflector and optional “air scarf.” The deflector does just what you’d expect, while the air scarf directs warm air up where it’s needed. These luxuries were definitely missing from my 1978 Triumph Spitfire…
Another announcement from Mercedes is the new 563 horsepower SLS AMG. With its gorgeous gullwing doors, aluminum construction and aggressive lines, this new coupe evokes the lines of the legendary 300 SL. It will definitely be a hit with the power-hungry crowd and those seeking the best handling Mercedes can offer.
