Mercedes has officially revealed the current addition to its coupe range in the form of the brand new E-Class Coupe at the Detroit motor Show.
Detroit was the setting for the E-Class saloon’s introduction last year, and while we received official pictures and specifications of the new S-Class Coupe inspired two-door E-Class towards the end of 2016, its presence on the stands at the North American international automobile show (NAIAS) marks the car’s public debut, and we have exclusive images from the show floor.

The E-Class Coupe’s design is heavily inspired by its smaller C-Class and larger S-Class siblings. The rear-end, in particular, has familiar stretched tail-lamps and the same rakish roofline, while everything from the A-Pillar back is bespoke to the two-door. Naturally, pillarless doors and LED lights all-round complete the upmarket appearance.
