Let's manage some expectations first - you’re never going to get a car that looks like a 911, as this is a 4-door sedan. So for now, this is as good as it gets. Well maybe the newly launched Sport Tourismo is better. But for a sedan, this works nicely.

That said, Mercedes-Benz isn’t the first to introduce such ‘gap filler’ though. Looking back, Audi had the S4 to bridge the A4 2.0 TFSI to the RS4. Even BMW had the 335i (now 340i) between the 328i and M3. You get the drift.

How has development of the car, in terms of both aerodynamics and engine, have been for you this season?It is great. To be honest the position we were in last year, that was not where we wanted to be. I think we’ve worked on a lot of issues over winter and throughout this season, and now we’ve put ourselves in a position where we are ready to fight for points at every race. Definitely, we are a step forward here and that to me is very impressive. The Honda engine has improved a lot — its deployment is giving us an advantage.For the aerodynamics, we have given it a lot of work too, which is why, overall, I’m very happy.

Styling-wise, the E-class ditches the quad-headlamp look it’s sported for the last two decades, and instead now looks like a carbon copy of the current C- and S-Classes. Overall length and wheelbase have grown by 43mm and 65mm respectively for added legroom, while the front track is now 20mm wider for slightly keener handling. Three trim levels are available — Exclusive (with the traditional Mercedes radiator grille with the upright star on the bonnet), Avantgarde, and AMG Line (both of which have a sports grille with integrated Mercedes star).
