2008 Mercedes E-Class

Ce copie dupa LEXUS ! Nu ma asteptam la asa ceva din partea Mertzedes.  

pai ei rafineaza designul cu 2 faruri existent pe e-class inca din anii 90.. (parca 95-96)

nu, insa cei de la autobild in general le-au cam nimerit cu designurile modelelor viitoare. Au mai avut rateuri (mai ales cand se aruncau sa faca predictii la masini la care nici macar tema de design nu fusese executata) insa in general cam au dreptate cu design-ul viitoarelor modele

N-ar castiga mai mult cei de la Autobild facand direct designul pentru Mercedes?!? De ce se mai chinuie sa ghiceasca? Poate cei de la Mercedes ii copiaza...

Spy photographers in the Arctic Circle have snapped shots of what appears to be the first prototype of the next-generation Mercedes E-class. The test car had just been unloaded from its transport truck, and these shots were snapped as it was pulled into the garage to be set-up for its pending cold-weather tests. From this rear angle, the resemblance to the all-new C-class — which is only days away from its official release — is very apparent.

C-class test cars are currently running around nearly undisguised, so a heavily camouflaged prototype sedan most likely signals the appearance of a new model testing program getting under way. The disguising details on this latest prototype don't quite match up with earlier C-class prototypes, and this prototype appears to show some additional width over-and-above the C-class range — mainly in the distance between the license plate and the tail-lights on the trunk lid. The different shape of the squarish exhaust-tip cut-outs on the rear bumper also suggests this isn't a C-class prototype.

Until we get a full 360-degree view of this prototype, we have to reserve final judgments, but it looks like the next-gen E-class may be about to hit the Scandinavian roads. Our shooter now has his lens trained on the facility, awaiting a proper photo-op to capture this test car from additional angles. Stay tuned.
