Mercedes E-Class Cabriolet 2011-A Stylish Drive

by Zack Colt

The new Mercedes E-Class Cabriolet 2011 promises a stylish, luxurious, and safe way to cruise the streets in the summer. This new convertible is the same in size as the 2010 E-Class Coupe and has an engine just at powerful. The new Mercedes E-Class Cabriolet 2011 is not like other convertibles in its class. It is protected by a 0.9 inch fabric roof that is water and wind resistant. The new design of the roof allows additional trunk space; it estimates increases from 3.17 cubic feet to 13.8 cubic feet. It also features a new AIRCAP system, intended to decrease the amount of wind disturbance into the passenger side even in speeds up to 100 mph.  Other features in the roof include the Mercedes AIRSCARF which propels bursts of warm air around the neck of both the driver and front-seat passenger. All these innovations are meant to allow drivers to cruise in style in any season.

The E-Class Cabriolet also includes an array of appealing safety features. It is ready with two reinforced roll-over bars, which include a combination of robust A-pillars and plug-in B-pillars. It detects likely hazards which can be caused by skidding or impact, the pre-tensioned pressure springs are also automatically activated due to the tilting cone sensor automatically locking. It is also the first of its type to offer head bags, and has seven airbags in front and the sides, the drivers side is equipped with knee bags, and includes belt force limits on each seat.  Power train options range from a 3.5-liter V6 engine, which delivers 268 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque for the E350 cabriolet to a 5.5-liter V8 engine with 382 horsepower and 391 lb-ft for the E550 cabriolet. Both models feature a seven-speed automatic transmission and are priced from $58,000 for the E350 and $66,000 for the E550.
