Mercedes-Benz ConceptFASCINATION Hints at 2010 E-Class Sedan and Coupe

Mercedes-Benz Concept Shooting Brake 2008 paris ShowPreviewing the design language of the next-generation CLK coupe that will be known as the E-Class Coupe as well as the new E-Class sedan, the ConceptFASCINATION will make its world premiere at the Paris Motor Show. Freed from the constraints of the marketing division, Mercedes’ designers decided to reinterpret the coupe with a ‘shooting brake’ concept and we must say that the overall result is both elegant and dynamic. But even though the ‘shooting brake’ conept looks cool, don’t expect to see it going into production as Mercedes will opt for a more traditional coupe bodystyle for the CLK’s successor.

Inside Mercedes says that the characteristic V-shape of the exterior is continued on the dashboard which features an instrument cluster with five tubes and silver dials. The cabin can accommodate four passengers along with their weekend luggage. -Continued

Power is provided by Mercedes-Benz all-new 4-cylinder turbo diesel engine which features BlueTEC and AdBlue technology and develops 204 hp from a displacement of 2.2-litres. The new diesel unit will make its product premiere on the limited production C250 CDI Prime Edition -see details here.

This is a beautiful concept! If the Chevy Nomad has a mature, refined, and much better looking sibling, this is it.

OMFG, what's with the Lexus GS headlights? The Toyota group, or rather Lexus should sue them if they ever come out with this car looking as is.

This is what we get when Mercedes leaves Chrysler behind. It takes the Dodge Magnum of a wagon and puts grace into it.

While, I understand it is trying to yet again make a unique product, as as their CLS 4-door Coupe, which is an oxymoron in itself. A wagon that looks like a 2 door? I don't think this will sell as well.
