The Mercedes-Benz E-Class undergoes an update soon. Because the model is barely two years old the changes are minimal. The LED daytime running lights will be adjusted again but get this time also a different place. The technology of the inner lamps will be modified as well and there will be new fog lights.

I wonder why they feel the need to this on a two year old model.

I know there's a lead time for this but two years isn't long is it?

It will be to standardised he look across the range now that the w204 facelift has similar style headlights and the upcoming new S-Class. Its nothing new manufacturers have been doing it for years.
 
Probably a marketing ploy, some folk have to have the latest style of whatever. Be nice if it means some nice deals on old models :D
 
Which confirms the strength in the old saying "you cant polish a turd"!
We lease an E class and I struggle to find a single angle where I think it looks nice.
 
Interesting post- however I hate the way any sneak pictures of facelift models are always of the blinged up body kitted / Sport "McIntosh Red" models---- unfortunately the new "cooking" variety often turns out to a slight disappointment. :dk:
 
Uninspiring.

Looks like it's been designed in China.
 
Artists impression of course.

The minor facelift isnt even out yet :)

um.. this is the minor facelift.. except rumour has it, its going to be a major facelift, ie - roof, doors are only panels that will remain the same..

so its going to be a major change,, not a minor one.. apparently
 
you may be right, but i think the post you referred to actually hides more than it shows..

i think the headlamps on the image i posted is more accurate, and rumors have it that this facelift due within 12 months is more radical for a mid life update.

Only time will tell which it is i guess!
 
looks abit bmw like .. hmmmm

BMW still looks better IMO.

W212 facelift is less of a dogs breakfast but still not great.

But you can roll it in glitter ! haha
 
I think the estates always 'look' better.

:)

2 years and a change already !! there are already some cracking lease deals and deals on the Mercedes site so surely this means even better deals for run out models.

I guess there will be a 'upgrade' you can do to your old model but new headlamps with built in DRL's will not be cheap.
 
It's a shame that the individual headlight design is replaced by the single "C Class" style. Seems to lose it's uniqueness (other than the fact that the Lexus GS copied it... :D )
 
I entirely agree about the headlamps - a backward step :confused:
