Mercedes-Benz brings among other things the facelifted E-class to the Geneva Motor Show. Today, Mercedes-Benz is placing a teaser video on its social channels showing some of the updated E-class.
Mercedes-Benz previously released photos of packaged test copies of the renewed E-class, and our espionage photographer also managed to get a prototype covered with stickers on several occasions. The new lighting on the front of the car can already be seen in a new teaser video.
The E-class will not only get new, flatter headlight units, but also the bumper work and the rear lights will be overhauled. At the rear, Mercedes assembles completely new rear light units, units that are more similar in shape to those of models such as the A-class Limousine. In addition, the E-class will, among other things, have new engines. It is a 2.0-liter four-cylinder and a 3.0-liter six-in-line. These machines are both equipped with a starter generator that gives extra power thanks to the 48-volt on-board voltage. The four-cylinder engine delivers 272 hp and has, thanks to electrical assistance (EQ Boost), temporarily added 20 hp. The six-cylinder engine kicks it up to 367 hp and also benefits from 20 additional, electrically-generated horsepower. There is also news on plug-in area. The already presented E300de and E300e can now also be ordered with four-wheel drive. Until now, the Mercedes cars were only available with drive on the rear wheels.
