2003 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Overview

Few carmakers have as long or proud a history as Mercedes-Benz, but I would never have realized that its E-Class model dates way back to 1953 if I hadn't read it in their press literature. Since this early model, dubbed the Ponton, Mercedes has managed to sell over 9,000,000 in this class alone. Being 25% of the brands total sales, one can only imagine the time and attention spent to get the new model right.
