These are the OFFICIAL pictures of the 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class, leaked Internet style (thank you www) for the world to enjoy. Mercedes had originally planned on a January 2009 release of the pics but a clever insider has provided them weeks early, a good holiday present for Mercedes enthusiasts and world car fans alike. The E-Class has grown in size, length and width for more comfort and interior space. Safety has been a paramount consideration of course and we see that in the new impact absorbing bonnet that pops up 5cm to lessen injury to cyclists or pedestrians in a low speed collision. There's also a system that recognises potential collisions and warns through the driver's pedal that it's time to brake . Existing technologies for Mercedes like Night Vision are to be found, and new ones such as blind spot and lane departure warning. New generation diesels 200 CDI, 220 CDI and 250 CDI give the frugal potential owners plenty of choice while the 300 CDI and 350 BlueTec come into play higher up. We know there are petrol variants too including the formidable E-Class AMG which should touch the 600bhp/ 450kW mark. A live reveal of the 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class is happening at the 2009 Geneva International Motor Show along with the E-Class Coupe. The E-Class Cabriolet appears live at Frankfurt later.

That is one ugly car, especially from the rear 3/4 angle

Why get this when you can get a CLS for slightly more money? (even less for slightly used)

[pitfield]

The rear light look a bit like those on an A5 but the other way around.

To be honest, I quite like the front of the car, but the back its painfull to see...maybe the AMG version could change that, now that they are using more aggressive bodykits on their models..but as Heil said, I don't see a reason not to get the CLS...Its way better looking that this (actually one of the best looking cars arond IMHO).

What the hell did they do to the E-Class? Good god that is ugly. It is a sad day when the Genesis Sedan looks better.

Just a few more inches on the back and you have the X6!

It quite looks like a Corean car

to be honest i think the e class has never really been about design, but change those tail lamps please!! they look like they've come from a hyundai ...
