Mercedes E-Class Stretch Limo First Spy Photos

Exactly, if I wanted the limo, I'd buy a Maybach! If I wanted a bigger car, I'd buy the S Class. It's not like this car will be in the E class price range.

For those who need a more affordable stretched limo? For use as a Hotel shuttle... I think these are also used as wedding cars, it also depending on the market I guess, because the E-class stretched limos were not available in some countries. PS: This concept isn't really new, its been done many of times already, check out the old models...

Just buy a Maybach, Rolls or S Class. Or stretch an S for more luxury

it looks like a big piece of plastic covering the centre door

You got that spot on janobr ... looking at the third and fourth pictures, the complete misalignment of door lines makes it look like there's an elephant sitting in the back ... there's no way this could be a factory test vehicle from MB or even one from a serious stretch limo producer.

The previous E-class stretch limos were popular as special taxis, hotel shuttles and wedding cars... so I guess we have an idea of what this might be used as... Unlike an S-class, the E-class stretch limos could seat 7-8 people.

Well, there are some companies who can make stretch limos from any car, so Merc is just trying to stole some costumers from the small companies.

The early models that were made in-house by Mercedes only had 4-doors.
