W212 Long Wheel base for China

[techjack]

Just for information purposes.

They just launched a new W212 E300 Long Wheel base specific for China.

Are China cars right-hand drive?

Wonder if the rest of the world would get this LWB E300 as well......

Why can't they do an Asian styling package and leave the rest of the world with a normal looking car for once.

I don't think they are. I think they're lhd. Japan, however, do have rhd. Though china is likely to be the only place where I suspect these vehicles will be rolled out first. As even simple C-class or A4 will be cheauffer driven.

Just puzzling as to why the Chinese need more room in the back seats than the rest of the world. Hmm.....

No, please. That's enough of that.

It's a "status" thing in China.

China has LHD, Hong Kong is RHD.
