Stretched to perfection

Mercedes is no stranger to long wheelbase models and their staple, the E-Class has been available in this guise for a while now. The 10th generation amps up this limousine's desirability even further.

In some ways, inspired by the S-Class whereas in other areas, even more advanced, the sportier-looking face of the E-Class with the tristar embedded within the Avantgarde grille along with tiny chrome stars looks classy without being overdone. Along the sides, the 15mm gain in wheelbase over the previousgen car is further highlighted by the Maybach-inspired quarter glass. Even the tail lights get refreshed with a 3D star pattern that looks unique and is pretty obvious that this design motif will find its way to other models too. Compared to the BMW 5 Series LWB, the E-Class looks better proportioned and balanced overall with a more traditional "limousine" look.
