- click picture for the Mercedes E-class press photos -

 While Mercedes had originally intended for the 2010 Mercedes E-class photos to be released in January 2009, an insider has leaked the official press photos on to the internet a couple of weeks early. 

Since 1995 the E-class can be recognised by its 4 round front lights. This new model also has 4 lights, though they are slightly more squared.  The E-class appears to have taken some design features from the smaller C-class, in particular the sharper lines across the doors. The day-time LED lights are new for Mercedes, as are the blind spot and lane departure warning technologies.  

Engines are available in four, six, or eight cylinders - both diesels and petrol versions. There is also a greener version available with the 350 BlueTec diesel, with a the other end of the spectrum the AMG powerhouse generating 600 bhp.

The 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-class shall be officially revealed at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show.
