Mercedes
V-Class AMG Line
Mercedes-Benz
has revealed the V-Class AMG Line and announced that it will debut at the 2015
Frankfurt Motor Show (2015 IAA). The sportier V-Class will get the AMG Line
equipment line package with unique styling features. The company has also
announced updates to the standard V-Class including a panoramic roof along with
refined interiors and additional equipment.
The
new V-Class AMG line will include design features that have been inspired by
the Mercedes-AMG range of high-performance cars. Up front, the AMG Line adds a
revised front apron with larger air intakes and diamond pattern mesh along with
a prominent grille. The sides feature lengthened sill panels to aid dynamism
while the rear incorporates a spoiler lip along with a diffuser-look apron.
It
will also feature 19-inch seven-spoke AMG light alloy wheels, 15 mm lowered
suspension with stiffer spring and dampers and an optional AGILITY CONTROL
suspension setup with variable damping. The sport inspired MPV also gets a
17-inch braking system with Mercedes-Benz lettering on the callipers.
The
interiors of the AMG Line get silver and chrome trim around the air vents, AMG
branding in the cabin, carbon-fibre look dashboard accents, black headliner and
sports pedals in brushed-aluminium look. The company states that this will be
the first time that the AMG Line will be offered in the MPVs from the
Mercedes-Benz Vans division. The AMG Line trim level will be made available for
both V-Class and V-Class Avantgarde.
The
German automaker has also announced upgrades to the standard V-Class with the
introduction of a large panoramic roof, which is the largest in the segment
with 1.90 x 1.12 metre glass area. Other revisions include a larger centre
console, integrated cooler compartment, LED illuminated thermo-cupholders and
iPad holders. The update also brings more convenience with 220V and 12V points
and USB and SD Card connectivity.
