Mercedes-Benz has published the official information on the redesign of its revolutionary four-door coupe, the CLS. Although most of the changes are touching as discrete elusive, the exterior of the new model provides several improvements to soften the body a little more. The grille now has two bars instead of four, the side mirrors are 32% larger and integrate intermittent shaped arrow, and rear lenses are reinforced with the arrival of LEDs. There are also new bumpers and exhaust, and wheels 17 and 18 inches in diameter. His profile attraction, of course, remains intact.
Brand new interiors are equally minor, limited only to a new three-wheel spokes, an instrumentation in black and white on a new package telematic with voice recognition and a higher resolution screen. Buyers may choose one among three possible gasoline engine, based on the model CLS 280. His mechanics consists of a 3.0 V6 231 hp and 300 Nm, enough to reach 100 km / h in 7.7 seconds. The next engine on the list is the 3.5 V6 CGI CLS 350, with 292 hp. Finally we find the CLS 500, with the 5.5 V8 family from the house to deliver 388 hp. It will be available diesel model, the CLS 320 CDI, in the latter case the official figures speak of 224 hp and 540 Nm waiting in the right pedal.
