The 2011 E-Class Cabriolet. Technologically ready for Spring, even in the rain.

Online, May 11, 2010 (Newswire.com) - The all new 2011 E-Class Cabriolet is now available from Mercedes-Benz. We would like to announce the arrival of this very unique and special model from Mercedes-Benz. The primary focus of the development of the emotional E-Class Cabriolet was the year round use the vehicle, which has plenty of room to seat four people comfortably. And the timing of the arrival of this vehicle couldn't be more perfect, it's just in time for spectacular Spring weather.

Along with the great body design and overall appearance, the E-Class Cabriolet comes with new technologies, specifically the world class innovations, AIRCAP and AIRSCARF. These two technologies make convertible driving comfortable in all seasons, even in winter, and even nicer in Spring.

AIRCAP is an automatic wind deflector, which reduces turbulence in the cabin interior, offering a draft free and quiet ride. This option is managed at the push of the button and you can adjust the air flow at your preference. The deflector is located on the top of the windshield. When raised, it elevates the outside air flow over the passenger cabin by 8 inches, keeping the cabin warmer and quieter.

The AIRCAP deflector can be raised at speeds of over 100 miles per hour. At the same time, a draft stop screen raises behind the rear seats to protect the passengers from getting blasted with air. The flow of air over the top of the car mimics the shape of the raised soft top and envelopes the passengers comfortably.
The AIRSCARF system has been refined in this new model and comes with the standard package. AIRSCARF is integrated into the backrests of the front seats and blows warm air on your neck. It is easily adjusted on your preference.

Thanks to its standard acoustic soft-top, the E-class Cabriolet is one of the quietest in its segment. The insulated power top is 1 inch thick, can be raised and lowered in 20 seconds and weighs substantially less than a comparable metal top. The soft top, when lowered, takes up 3.2 cubic feet of the trunk, leaving 10.6 cubic feet for luggage or other items. It can also be raised or lowered at speeds up to 20 miles per hour, eliminating the need to pull over if it starts to rain. The soft top gives the 2011 E-Class Cabriolet a classic convertible form. When closed, you do not feel like you are in a traditional convertible, but rather any other hard top vehicle and extremely quiet.

The 2011 E-Class Cabriolet comes with a sophisticated passenger protection system with optional headbags (airbags) in the rear. The E350 Cabriolet comes standard with a 3.5-liter V6 engine, producing 268 hp and 258 lb/ft of torque. The more robust E550 Cabriolet comes with a 5.5-liter V8 that grinds out 382 hp and 391 lb/ft of torque.

The 2011 E-Class Cabriolet will set the new standard for convertibles and really can be used all year round.
