The 2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Cabriolet is set to strip off its camo in Geneva. The car borrows many elements from its coupe sibling, which is shown above. However, the auto ditches its hard top to give way to a top down roofing. The car is expected to benefit from the new engines of Mercedes.

2. Mercedes-Maybach G 650 Landaulet in the Flesh for the First Time
