MERCEDES BENZ E-Klasse Cabriolet (A207)

MERCEDES BENZ E-Klasse Cabriolet (A207) 

 

The 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Klasse Cabriolet comes with fresh styling which is combined with the new sophisticated assistance system part of Mercedes-Benz “intelligent drive”. The system includes new technology that avoids crashing with other vehicles or pedestrians as well as an upgraded Active Lane Keeping Assist system. The look has been refreshed by the redesigned front fascia, with new headlamps that feature LED lightning as standard while keeping the typical “four-eye” look of the E-Klasse. Designers have played a little with the proportions too, the convertible having a longer pointed nose, beefier rear wheel arches and a flat roof. The restyled interior features fine materials and two-piece trim stretching across the entire dashboard. Technical features include a three-spoked steering wheel with Direct Select shift lever and shift paddles, AIRCAP system to reduce air turbulence when the top is down and the AIRSCARF neck-level heating that allows the car to be driven top down even in colder weather.

The 2013 Aston Martin DB9 Volante

Taking stock of the revised Aston Martin DB9 is a little bit like revisiting a classic Corb chaise or Aalto stool, or even something as ubiquitous as an iPod. From the outside, not a lot appears to have changed. But with materials, manufacturing techniques and muscular forms all given a steady, ongoing and almost imperceptible improvement over the years,  Lighter, faster, and more efficient, it has undergone the automotive equivalent of a chemical peel, rolling back the decades and keeping things fresh.
