VIDEO: Even if the Mercedes E-Class Wagon doesn't handle like a slot car, it can still handle slot cars

First of all, yes – this is pure Mercedes-Benz propaganda. We're fully aware of that fact. Second, despite it all, we're very jealous of what takes place in this video. In order to show off just how much junk you're able to fit inside the new E-Class Wagon -– or "Estate" in Mercedes parlance. How they settled on building a giant slot car track (or more precisely, sneaking it past the corporate money men) is beyond us, but we're glad they did. So, how much junk? Quite a bit. Specifically, 1,275 pieces of track, including a ... Read more →

VIDEO: 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Estate busts a move with its fly open 3 months ago on Autoblog

Mercedes planning production E-Class shooting brake? 6 months ago on Autoblog

REPORT: Mercedes delaying not delaying E-Class convertible, wagon 6 months ago on Autoblog

UPDATE: Mercedes wrote us to say that the report of E wagon and cabrio delays is inaccurate, and "the cars are on schedule as planned."

First Drive: 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Coupe 7 months ago on Autoblog

Do you hear that? That's the jostling of a Prada bag and a soy latte inside the the last Mercedes CLK as it cruises into what is commonly referred to as "oblivion." It's being replaced by the brand new E-Class Coupe. Or rather, it's not really a replacement; the new car is a reset of ...

First Drive: 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class still a solid bet with excellent returns 7 months ago on Autoblog

With eight generations and 12 million units sold over the last 62 years, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class' longevity represents a profound run of intelligent bets for a premium sedan sold in premium quantities. That makes Las Vegas an appropriate background for last week's introduction of the E-Class ...

Mercedes slashes nearly $5k off the list price of a new E-Class 7 months ago on Autoblog

It's always a bit of a gamble. Do you buy a new car now, or wait for the new version to come out? Those who opted to do the latter with the Mercedes-Benz E-Class should be pleased with their decision; not only does the new model represent a significant advance over the one it replaces, but the ...

Mercedes-Benz E-Class Pullman drawings leak from European patent office 7 months ago on Autoblog

It's no great secret that the European Union's patent office has more leaks than a Soviet submarine, but up until now it's only been small cars that have been able to trickle out (see: the facelifted Mazda MX-5 and Nissan 370Z Roadster). But the dam seems to be giving way as a whole Mercedes ...

That's a Stretch: Mercedes E-Class limo spied 9 months ago on Autoblog

The rich keep getting richer, and their cars keep getting bigger.

But these spy shots suggest ...

Unofficially Yours: 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Coupe images leaked? 10 months ago on Autoblog

Either someone is either rather handy with Photoshop, or Mercedes-Benz has another E-Class embargo break on their hands. The folks over at Autoblog.nl (no relation) have somehow gotten hold of what looks to be a slate of images of the 2010 E500 Coupe. We've seen mules of this car for some time ...

Spy Shots: Mercedes E-Class 1 year ago on Autoblog

If this is what the next E-Class is really going to look like, we think we prefer the lightly camo'ed prototype better.

Rendered or official? 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class 1 year ago on Autoblog

Autobild is hardly a bastion of integrity on newsstands in Germany, so its cover story proclaiming it has "Exclusive Photos" of the new Mercedes-Benz E-class "without camouflage" needs to be taken with the appropriate grains of salt. However, based on the various reports we've seen over the past ...
