Driving the winds of change.
The all-new, all-season E-Class Cabriolets. It’s almost a shame the triple‑layer soft top of a new E‑Class Cabriolet is so finely tailored, as it’s destined to spend most of
its time nestled under its sculpted cover. Mercedes‑Benz has once again reinvented open‑air motoring, with innovations that virtually eliminate drafts in the cabin, even
for rear‑seat passengers, and countless ways to enhance the in‑car environment so that even a brisk evening feels more like a sunny day. Beyond the sun‑sensing dual‑zone
climate control, there are optional front seats that can warm you, keep you cooler, and even offer a virtual scarf so you can enjoy driving with the top down longer into
the evening or the change of seasons. When rain or winter finally arrive, the insulated soft top powers up in seconds to ensconce you in a stylish haven of quiet comfort.
Sound-dampening soft top. Exquisitely crafted from
three layers totalling nearly a full inch in thickness, the rich
fabric power soft top is designed to provide a coupe‑like
level of silence in the cabin. In just 20 seconds, it stows
away while preserving a generous 8.8 cu ft of trunk space.
AIRCAP. Standard on every 2011 E‑Class Cabriolet is an
exclusive innovation that virtually eliminates drafts when
you’re driving with the top down. A wind deflector rises
from above the windshield, while a power‑operated see‑
through screen is raised between the rear head restraints.
AIRSCARF. Optional as part of the Premium 1 Package
is a neck‑level heating system that provides warmed air
through adjustable vents within each front head restraint.
AIRSCARF extends the top‑down driving season with three
heat settings and airflow that adapts to driving speed.
