TheC207/A207 Mercedes-Benz E-Class arecoupé andconvertible models based on theMercedes-Benz E-Class (W212) sedan chassis. It was produced between 2008 and 2017 as the successor to the previousC209/A209 CLK-Class.[3][4] The body styles of the range are 2-doorcoupé (C207) and 2-doorconvertible (A207).
Thecoupé andcabriolet vehicles were never offered in the high-performance Mercedes-AMG variants, unlike its predecessor.[5] E350 and E400 coupé models were also available in all-wheel drive 4MATIC variants from 2012.[6][7]
It was replaced by theC238/A238 E-Class in 2017 for the 2018 model year.[8]
The C207/A207 E-Class shares its platform with theW204 C-Class sedan, featuring identicalwheelbases, and similaraxle track lengths.[9] While the W212 E-Class sedan is built at theSindelfingen plant, the E-Class C207 coupé is built in Bremen alongside the W204 C-Class.[10]
Some early petrol models had CGI BlueEFFICIENCY branding, with the exception of the E 300 BlueEFFICIENCY and E 500.[11] With the introduction of the Mercedes 7G-Tronic automatic transmission,[12] models subsequently dropped the CGI moniker, along with the BlueEFFICIENCY name after the 2013 facelift.[13] Diesel models with the nine-speed automatic transmission were also calledBlueTEC instead of CDI BlueEFFICIENCY,[14] and facelifted models were simply called CDI or BlueTEC.[13]
Mercedes-Benz originally intended for the C207/A207 to continue the CLK name, but changed to E-Class branding during development.[15]
The coupé was introduced at the 2009Geneva Motor Show.[16]
Like the CLK it replaced, the C207 Coupé features apillarless design with noB pillar between the front and back windows.
The convertible was unveiled at the 2010North American International Auto Show.[17]
Some convertibles have Mercedes' AIRSCARF system, which provides neck heating for front occupants,[18] and the AIRCAP windshield spoiler and wind deflector system, deflecting air over the cabin for reduced draft and wind noise.[19]

Standard equipment includes Mercedes' AGILITY CONTROL semi-adaptive suspension[20] and ATTENTION ASSIST which alerts the driver when the car detects driver fatigue.[21] Models feature front, side, and knee airbags, along with belt tensioners and head restraints.[22] An AMG Sports package can also be optioned, featuring AMG bodystyling, 15 mm (0.6 in) lower suspension, silver painted front brake calipers, and wider 18-inch alloy wheels. However, the AMG package did not include performance upgrades.[23]
