Introduction of the New E-Class, Model Series 212 Sedan
Front view
The new E-Class sedan is characterized by:
• A steep and proportionally very tall radiator grille
with a three-dimensional chrome frame extending
deep into the bumper
• The "4-eye face" with new rhomboid headlamps
The striking front end is dynamically tapered. The line
of the taper continues almost steplessly from the
bumper across the radiator grille and into the engine
hood.
The appearance is rounded off by the air grille in the
bumper air inlet and the daytime running lights in their
grille surround, the length of which creates an impres-
sion of width and sportiness.
The daytime running lights in the bumper are available
as a twin oval arrangement (combined with front fog
lamps in conjunction with H7 projection headlamps)
or as an LED crossbar (in conjunction with bi-xenon
headlamps).
