Mercede E-350 Details and review
61The Mercedes convertible and the great tackle his first
summer. Body has a more aggressive, more original and convincing model
that replaced the CLK Cabriolet.
It has the look of the E-Class, but resumed practice in the mechanics of Class C, likes the CLK. This does not mean that the step forward made
over previous models is very important, indeed.
The new generation engines, the
most sophisticated electronic control systems and all devices designed to
improve comfort and security have been proposed on this car, which is part of
the most prestigious convertibles 'traditional', i.e. those with traditional fabric roof. In practice in this price range, around 50/60.000 euro, no direct rivals with similar characteristics with the roof,
excluding the Saab 9-3 Convertible, but arises as a step lower prices and
technical solutions. The real competitor on an equal footing is the BMW 3
Series convertible, while a little further down is the Volvo C70: though both
are equipped with retractable hardtop, like the Infiniti G37 and Lexus IS
Convertible C, not available with the diesel engine. The level reached by the hood of the test is
the absolute top in terms of acoustic comfort and
water resistance, and is the best feature of the mechanisms that operate
electrically in less than 20 "up to speeds of 40 mph.
The damage due to theft or some
stupid "joke" are the only real problems created by the hood, which
instead can offer body usually more slender, especially in the queue.
