The latest family of mid-sized Benzes is growing fast.
The four-door E-Class is already out and about, even as the hammer- time E63 AMG, and so too is the station wagon. Now we have proof on the direction for the upcoming E-Class cabrio.
The droptop, like the coupe, takes on a much bigger role in the new generation following Mercedes-Benz's decision to axe the CLK from its lineup. The CL is gone too, although there will still be an S-Class coupe.
The upcoming droptop was caught by Carparazzi in Europe and the pictures point to a softtop folding roof, not a hard clamshell, that retracts completely into the tail.The new car should be roomier than the model it replaces, if only because the CLK was built from the basics of the smaller C-Class. It is also expected to be much more refined.
The Cabrio should be in showrooms early in 2010, which means Australian deliveries from the middle of next year.
