2015 Mercedes-Benz E400 Cabriolet, 2015 Mercedes-Benz E400 Cabriolet Images Review :

A great turbo engine in a sweet convertible.

Like its fixed-roof sister model, the Mercedes-Benz E-class cabriolet has been extensively restyled and updated for 2014. The update is marked by upgraded driver-assistance systems and significantly altered styling: New headlights in a single housing, new taillights, a new grille, and new front and rear fascias underscore this vehicle's newness. Unlike the 2014 E-class sedan and wagon, the two-door models keep their muscular rear haunches, an element that works better here than on the larger models. And for 2014, the E350 coupe and cabriolet use a carry-over naturally aspirated 3.5-liter V-6.
Now allow us to jump ahead to 2015, which will see the introduction of a twin-turbocharged V-6. Despite its 3.0-liter displacement, cars carrying the engine will be called E400—and if Mercedes’ badges don’t make sense, at least this engine actually makes more power than what’s under the hood of the E350. Although U.S.-market numbers are not yet finalized, we expect the blown six to produce 328 horsepower at 5500 rpm, up from the E350's 302 horsepower at 6500 rpm. The torque difference is even more significant: While the E350 produces 273 lb-ft from 3500 to 5250 rpm, the E400 will make a far more substantial 354 lb-ft from 1400 to 4000 rpm.
Mercedes is delaying the U.S. introduction of the twin-turbo 3.0-liter E400 to 2015 in order to feed the first cars to the red-hot Chinese market, where a 3.0-liter engine is incredibly important for tax reasons. And the simultaneous European launch is manageable, as Europeans prefer fuel-sipping four-cylinder engines and diesels.
