Mercedes-AMGE43 AMG T-Modell (S213) 2016 - 2018

　　Mercedes-AMG introduced the station wagon version of the E43 at the same time as its sedan sibling in 2016, providing similar performances but with a larger trunk.

　　Unlike BMW, which was reluctant to offer a station wagon for the M5, the three-pointed-star brand was determined to provide such bodywork for most of its AMG-powered vehicles. Thus, in 2016, Mercedes-AMG introduced a T-Modell (station wagon) version for the E-Class. And, just like its sedan sibling, it was difficult to hide the muscles it had under the skin.

　　At the front, the 3D-pattern design on the grille resembled a warp speed, with the three-pointed star badge in the middle. Lower, on the bumper, the car manufacturer added the specific A-shaped grille flanked on the sides by a pair of scoops that cooled the brakes. From its profile, the 19” light-alloy wheels exposed the 360 mm (14.2”) rotors of the same size front and rear. Yet, the front ones were cross-drilled. The third side window, placed behind the C-pillars, showed a rear curved descending line similar to the one on the regular E-Class T-Modell. Finally, at the back, the quad-tips covered the twin exhaust system.

　　AMG installed a TFT display inside the cabin in front of the driver, replacing the analog dials used on older cars. That was continued with the infotainment that sat atop the center stack and shared the same glass panel. Unlike its sedan sibling, the T-Modell featured a rear air-suspension system that kept the car leveled regardless of the load in the trunk.

　　Under the hood, Mercedes-AMG installed a 401 HP bi-turbo V6 engine. It was paired with a nine-speed automatic gearbox that sent the power in all corners.
