Codenamed W212, the next-generation E-Class will arrive for the 2009 model year, with the estate version (codenamed S212) expected for 2010.
Although not much information has been offered in regards to the upcoming fifth-generation E Class, sources are speculating an increase if about 20mm in length. That, combined with a redesigned interior, will offer a more spacious feel to the passenger compartment.
An all-new instrument cluster, along with (07) S Class night-vision technology and an updated Comand system will highlight the interior changes.
Power-wise, Mercedes full-range of engines will be available ? although not all in all markets. The base powerplant will consist of four-cylinder engines with the horsepower rating starting at 175, followed by 6 and eights, diesel offerings, and, of course, AMG's version offering over 500-horsepower.
