Yahoo Autos Mercedes-Benz E-Class Wagon revealed in all its long-roof glory
Mercedes-Benz just revealed the E-Class wagon for European customers, and while U.S. details aren’t out, we already know that the long-roof variant will be making its way here in some capacity.
As you might expect, the E-Class wagon is bigger in its new generation. It’s 1.1 inches wider, has a 0.87-inch longer wheelbase and offers more rear legroom and cargo capacity than the outgoing model. It does this while adopting a more aggressive, raked rear-end design. The elements we saw in the E-Class Sedan redesign are also present in this wagon. It’s rocking the new front fascia, electrically-operated flush door handles and the three-pointed star in the rear taillights. Its front end is reminiscent of Mercedes-EQ models, but unlike those vehicles, this grille has true texture and allows air to flow through it. Mercedes managed to drop its coefficient of drag by 0.01 down to 0.26 with the more aerodynamic design.
We’re loving the simple and elegant look Mercedes applied here, and we can’t wait to see it on our shores. However, whatever we see in the U.S. is likely to differ from what we’re looking at here since Mercedes doesn’t sell the regular E-Class Wagon in the States anymore. Instead, it’s more likely that we get a lifted All-Terrain version of the E-Class Wagon, and if we’re lucky, a fire-breathing AMG model, too.
