This larger station wagon is based on the Grand Sports Tourer Vision R concept, which was introduced in Detroit last year. The R-Class will be built in Vance, Ala. A long-wheelbase version will be produced for the U.S. market, alongside a short-wheelbase equivalent, which will be exported to Europe. Eventually, Mercedes is expected to sell the short-wheelbase version in the U.S. with its larger sibling. Annual production will fall around 50,000 units, about half of which will be intended for domestic consumption. Less

Vision, innovation, and charismatic appeal. Mercedes-Benz invented the luxury sport sedan nearly four decades ago, and today's E-Class continues the tradition of all-around performance and comfort.

Grand Sport Tourer--Mercedes-speak for minivan?

by mkaresh , Oct 11, 2005

Pros: Elegant styling, interior space, comfort, ride, performs well considering its size

Cons: Too big to feel sporty, transmission too quick to upshift, huge doors, no 7-pass option

The Bottom Line: Best third row in a luxury vehicle. Very comfortable. But too large to drive like a sport sedan.

This reviewer recommends this product.

Review: For the last few years the auto industry has been hunting for the next big thing. With SUVs under pressure from rising gas prices, this hunt will only intensify. The general sense is that this next big thing will have the functionality of a minivan,...

This reviewer recommends this product.

Review: While having my 2001 C240 serviced, I decided to take a test drive of a new 2006 E350, and much to my delight, the saleswoman gave me very wide latitude to really test the car, on a wide variety of roads and for almost a full hour. During that...

E320 CDI: a rare bargain from Mercedes; E350 also reviewed

by mkaresh , Oct 18, 2005

The Bottom Line: Diesel great for driveability and fuel economy, not so great for handling.

This reviewer recommends this product.

Review: While the U.S. hunts for a solution to its dependence on foreign oil, Europe has already settled on one: diesel. Influenced by high fuel prices and tax incentives, Europeans purchased diesel engines in over half of the new cars they bought last...
