Mercedes-Benz E-Class 2011 UAE Prices & Specs

The bestselling E-Class is back with a bloated new look for the 2010 model year, likely to differentiate itself further from the sleek CLS 4-door "coupe" model. While the new styling is a massive failure, the sedan itself has improved under the skin. But the engines are still carried over from the previous generation, with the 3.0-litre E 300, the 3.5-litre E 350 and the 5.5-litre E 500. The base E 200 CGI and E 250 CGI models appeared later, both with 1.8-litre engines, each with a different tune. Externally, they all look the same. The standard models get 16-inch and 17-inch wheels. The new-for-2010 E-Class Coupe debuted in the summer of 2009, featuring much of the same features as the sedan, but in a 2-door format. However, the Coupe is only available in E 350 and E 500 form, with an E 250 CGI base model debuting later. An AMG sports package is also available to dress up the standard sedan and coupe models. Of course, that doesn't help the interior, which harks backs to Mercedes-Benz models of the early 80s, with squared-off dash panels and boring trim detailing. A multimedia computer is now awkwardly integrated into the dashboard, with a controller on the centre console. All the usual luxury and safety features are available, depending on model, such as power windows, electric seats, sunroof, HID headlights, front airbags, side-curtain airbags, LED running lights, cloth or leather upholstery, Bluetooth phone, adaptive cruise control, and more. The E-Class also features over 70 sensors whose sole purpose is to ensure the driver's physical well-being, such as drowsiness monitors, night-vision, automatic braking and other electronic gimmickry.
