Mercedes-Benz E-Class (C207)


The C207/A207 Mercedes-Benz E-Class are coupé and convertible models based on the W204 C-Class sedan chassis. It was produced between 2009 and 2017 as the successor to the previous C209/A209 CLK-Class. The body styles of the range are:
Unlike its predecessor, the coupé and cabriolet models were never offered in the high performance Mercedes-AMG E 63 4MATIC+ and E 63 S 4MATIC+ versions. E350 and E400 coupé models were also available in all-wheel drive 4MATIC variants from 2012.
It was replaced by the C238/A238 E-Class in 2017.

Development and launch

The C207/A207 E-Class shares its platform with the W204 C-Class sedan, featuring identical wheelbases, and similar axle track lengths. While the W212 E-Class sedan is built at the Sindelfingen plant, the E-Class C207 coupé is built in Bremen alongside the W204 C-Class.
Initial petrol models used the CGI BlueEFFICIENCY name, with the exception of the E300 BlueEFFICIENCY and E500. With the introduction of the Mercedes 7G-Tronic automatic transmission in 2011, models subsequently dropped the CGI moniker, along with the BlueEFFICIENCY name after the 2013 facelift. Diesel models with the nine-speed automatic transmission were also called BlueTEC instead of CDI BlueEFFICIENCY, and facelifted models were simply called CDI or BlueTEC.
Mercedes-Benz originally intended for the C207/A207 to be called CLK, but moved over to the E-Class name later during development.
