Mercedes-Benz E350 Cabriolet: The Unique Convertible

For years now, Mercedes-Benz continues practicing its expertise in this particular area and ultimately has grown to become one of the best, if not at the top of convertible auto production.

Be it the big old SL Class or the CLK model, each exhibit a level of refinement various other makes will envy, with its roof off or on. The E-Class cabriolet is no different. Costly, quiet and classy, it ensembles a person who is seeking stylish appearance. And evidently, owners of the drop-top E-Class units wish to display its convertible abilities.

As an alternative to choosing a foldable hard top, Mercedes-Benz E350 resolved to go with a fabric top and to possess this convertible; you have to pay an extra $12,450 more as compared to the coupe. And exactly like the coupe, it shares a lot of its feature with the C-Class rather than the E-Class.

The C-Class is undoubtedly an extraordinary series and so the E-Class cabriolet borrowing its DNA together with the C-Class is certainly not a bad point. Its prices are wide varying from $100,000 for the four cylinder petrol into a enormous $186,950 for the V8. The E350 is within the mid-range with a price tag of $140,000 approximately.

The E350 cabriolet includes a amazing cabin feel despite having the fabric roofing and even though road noises isn’t suppressed as those of the coupe or sedan, it isn’t far off either. This is because of the high-quality insulation of its soft top that is very much impressive, specially when it is overtaking cars in the highway or inside of tunnels. With this particular model, Mercedes-Benz followed a “four season-four passenger” approach as well as two important bits of technology for ease and comfort development.

An all-new Aircap device is presented and along with the Airscarf concept, keeps the passengers heated no matter if motoring in the winter. The Aircap creates a simulated roof which has a directed flow of air over the passenger cockpit from the top of the windscreen simultaneously that the Airscarf gives off warm air through air outlets which have been placed on top of the seats.

After hitting a control button, a small 6cm wing will rise from the top of the windscreen forcing external air upward and over occupant compartment. Space inside is good, specifically in the front as large passengers will quickly occupy legroom space at the back. Adults can still get in the rear though which bests a lot of the competitors. Even so, any person taller than 180 cm will find it challenging to get comfortable.
