Mercedes-Benz E-Class Cabriolet (spyshot)
The Mercedes-Benz E-Class Cabriolet can now be seen with less camouflage
cladding, with the frontal treatment revealed to wear the diamond grille common
to the most recent range of Mercedes-Benz models.
The cabriolet an be expected to mimic most, if not all of
the sedan’s powertrain line-up of petrol and diesel engines. In addition to the
mainstream models, this generation of E-Class cabriolet is expected to spawn a
full-blooded AMG E 63 model, a first for a two-door E-Class model, along with
the coupe.
With the sedan and station wagon E-Class models
already launched, the coupe should be next in line, with the drop-top expected
roughly six months after the coupe’s debut.
Most of the interior forward
of the B-pillars is expected to be carried over from the sedan, which means
that the dual 12.3-inch instrument display screens will also feature in the
upcoming cabriolet.
Common to recent open-topped Mercedes-Benz models
are the Airscarf neck heating and Aircap draught-stop systems, although the
former was the subject of a patents infringement case which saw the automaker
ordered to disable such systems in Germany.
The patent in question runs out on December
25, 2016, which is when Mercedes-Benz is allowed to reactivate the system on
all its cars.
