A highly appealing and emotionally charged Cabriolet is the latest addition to the successful Mercedes-Benz E-Class line-up.
The open-top two-door model, which goes on sale shortly, features a classic fabric soft top, making for a stylistically pure cabriolet feeling.
Mercedes-Benz Middle East & Levant sales and marketing director Frank Bernthaler said: "With the new Cabriolet we are complementing our successful E-Class family with yet another particularly emotionally appealing model."
The soft top can be opened and closed fully automatically within 20 seconds - even when driving at speeds of up to 40 km/h.
The cabriolet roof is stowed in a special compartment behind the rear panel. A retractable cover separates the soft top compartment from the boot area which must be closed in order to close the soft top.
If the roof is to remain closed, the cover can be slid rearwards, in which case the boot capacity is increased by 90 litres to 390 litres.
A through-loading feature is included as standard for the new Cabriolet, as is easy-entry - a manually operated entry and exit aid for the rear-seat passengers.
