We're yet to drive this version of the E-Class Coupe, but as soon as we do, our verdict will appear here online.
The E-Class Coupe is more than just a two-door version of the saloon, though. It has a 115mm shorter wheelbase, trading some interior space for greater agility, and it has the option of individual electronic suspension control with the AMG-tuned suspension that is standard on Sport models.
The E-Class genes are plain to see in other areas, though, from the edgy, deliberately disharmonious styling to the up-to-the-minute safety features, including a driver drowsiness detection system. Its five engines – four-cylinder and V6 petrols and diesels and a V8 petrol – are all taken from the E-Class, too.
