Cycle & Carriage - E-Class Estate - Design and equipment lines

The equipment lines of the E-Class Estate

Already the standard equipment level of the new E-Class features visual highlights such as LED fibre-optic tail lamps or a stone grey radiator grille as well as a high-quality and stylishly coordinated interior.

The ELEGANCE line emphasises the elegant aspect of the E-Class. From the exterior the high-sheen chrome elements are especially eye-catching. The harmoniously designed interior is an impressive sight with exclusive fabric upholstery and burr walnut trim elements.

The AVANTGARDE line emphasises the sporty character of the new E-Class. The rectangular exhaust embellishers integrated into the rear bumper as well as the front end with central star in the radiator grille and the sporty wing design with black mesh with diamond-shaped perforations on the air inlets make for a dynamic and striking appearance. Along the same lines a multitude of aluminium trim elements lend the interior an active and sporty character.

Availability and scope of the equipment lines is dependent on the engine variant and the selected optional extras.
