Replacing the long-running CLK-Class coupe beginning first with the 2010 model year, the Mercedes E-Class Coupe marked a return to tradition for the German automaker. Based primarily on the E-Class platform, the E-Class coupe actually borrows some of its suspension from the smaller C-Class, though unlike the CLK, the majority of its structure is from the larger E.

Available in E350 and E550 versions, the E-Class coupe brings back a pillar-less coupe version of Mercedes-Benz 's bread-and-butter sedans, unlike the CLK, which looked vaguely like the E-Class but was built on a C-Class platform.

Unlike its predecessors, the E-Class coupe eschews the three-pointed star hood ornament for a prominent, grille-mounted replacement that, in the latest Mercedes-Benz design language, signifies "sport," rather than luxury. Accordingly, the E-Class coupe has been tuned more towards performance than providing the coddling personal luxury-style accommodations of Mercedes coupes of yore.

Inside, that means you'll find an angular dashboard lifted from the E-Class sedan, which boasts Mercedes' latest COMAND software, but also a console-mounted automatic transmission lever, rather than the steering column stalk-mounted setup in the four-door.

For the latest model year, the E-Class coupe gets a pair of new engines that boast increased power and efficiency. The E350 gets Mercedes' new 3.5-liter V6 engine, which puts out 302 horsepower and 273 lb-ft. while returning 19 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway. The E550 replaces its previous big-displacement 5.5-liter V8 for a new, twin-turbo 4.7-liter unit that makes 402 horsepower and 443 lb-ft of torque and nets 16/24 mpg. Both engines are mated to a seven-speed automatic transmission that also includes steering wheel-mounted paddles for manual-style control.

Safety, both passive and active, is a priority for the E-Class coupe. Attention Assist, which monitors steering inputs to detect driver drowsiness, comes standard. The system uses front and rear-mounted radar sensors to estimate when a driver deviates from his line of course by taking into account lane drifting followed by rapid corrections.

The E-Class coupe also features a class-leading nine airbags active head restraints that move forward during a rear impact for added safety.

Both models offer an optional Distronic Plus with Pre-Safe braking, which charges the brakes when it detects and impending impact in order to limit the severity of the wreck as much as possible.

Several option packages are available line-wide. The Premium 1 package includes a navigation system, 450-watt harman/kardon premium audio system, Sirius satellite radio, a rear sunshade and heated seats. The Premium 2 package adds ventilated front seats, bi-xenon headlamps, LED daytime running lamps, adaptive high-beam assist (which can automatically dim high-beam headlights when it detects oncoming traffic) and keyless starting and entry.

A Sport Package upgrades the E350 to 17-inch wheels, a sports suspension and ventilated brake discs, all of which are standard on the E550. It adds sports seats, rubber-studded pedals and a unique trim package to both, while only the E550 gets an AMG-designed sport steering wheel.

The optional Distronic Plus package adds the aforementioned adaptive cruise control with Brake Assist Plus and Parktronic parking assist that can help guide the car into parking spots via a rear-mounted camera.

Individual options include full leather trim, a leather and wood-covered steering wheel and TeleAid emergency assist.
