Watch here part 1 of 5 “Prototype and Testing” of the E-Class making-of series. The series shows how the ambition of Mercedes-Benz perfection and reliability is lived in the development process of the new E-Class. Find more information about the new E-Class on http://mb4.me/0UVeQFH9

The new E-Class is the convincing result of the new Mercedes-Benz design philosophy. It embodies modern style and refined sportiness like no other luxury limousine. Horizontal elements and lines provide a clear, quiet ambience and a generous spatial impression. The continuous application of decorative elements of the instrument panel to the door trim conveys a sense of quality and security.

With “Generation EQ”, Mercedes-Benz shows how electric cars can soon move into the fast lane: the concept vehicle, with the appearance of a sporty SUV coupé, gives a preview of a new generation of vehicles with battery-electric drives. The dynamic exterior design with its new electro-look underlines the focus on the powerful electric drive system: two electric motors, with a system output that can be increased to up to 300 kW thanks to scalable battery components, and permanent all-wheel drive deliver the guarantee of dynamic high-level performance. With a range of up to 500 kilometres and the typical Mercedes strengths of safety, comfort, functionality and connectivity, “Generation EQ” meets every demand in terms of contemporary, sustainable mobility.

The design of the Mercedes-Benz stand at the Paris Motor Show already promises breaking news from Mercedes-Benz. Digital displays and interactive components set the tone for the world premiere of a show car that embodies a tangible vision for a completely new vehicle generation with electric battery-powered drive. Center stage will also be the world premiere of the electric drive versions of the new smart fortwo, smart fortwo cabrio and, for the first time, smart forfour. As a result smart is the only brand to offer its entire model range not only with petrol engines but also with electric drive.
