SPIED: With Mercedes' All-New E-Class SEDAN Is On The Way, FIRST Shots Of The All-New E Coupe Hit The Web

This week has been a busy one for Mercedes-Benz fans. That's because the company dropped a bomb on us when it released the very first official images and information about the all-new E-Class set to debut at the 2016 Detroit Auto Show (NAIAS).

And, frankly, I got so wrapped up in the noise that I forgot one thing: there's also a coupe variant.

Whoops!

What reminded me of the coupe were all-new spy shots of the next-gen Mercedes-Benz E-Class Coupe captured as it was undergoing testing abroad. As you can see she's covered up quite good and even sporting what we believe to be a fake butt.

My understanding is it will not be a coupe version of the sedan but another model based off the C platform. I'd prefer a true coupe version ala W124 which is still a spectacular car!
