Chronology
SuccessorMercedes-Benz CLS-Class (C218)

The C219 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class is the first generation of the CLS-Class range of four-door coupe which features a fastback body style by Mercedes-Benz, and was produced between 2003 and 2010.[4]

The CLS-Class has only four seats and is marketed by Mercedes as a four-door coupé.[5] It was the first model globally to introduce this four-door coupe style and VW followed with the Volkswagen CC model in 2008 and the Porsche Panamera and Audi A7 in 2009.

The car is less practical than the W211 E-Class that it is based on, with less legroom, headroom, and boot space.[6][7] The CLS-Class is priced above the E-Class, but below the S-Class in the Mercedes model range.[8][9] The production of the C219 series totalled only 170,000 units globally throughout its six year production run.[10] It was replaced by the Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class (C218) in 2011.[11]

Development and launch

[edit]

The C219 CLS-Class is based on the Vision CLS concept that was unveiled at the 2003 Frankfurt International Motor Show.[12] The design combined the roof-line of a coupé onto the body of a four-door chassis leading to a fastback vehicle. It featured new technologies such as cornering lights, an electrohydraulic braking system (Sensotronic Brake Control), a seven-speed (7G-Tronic) automatic transmission,[13] and a turbo-diesel engine rated at 197 kW (268 PS; 264 hp) and 560 N⋅m (413 lb⋅ft).[14]

The production version of the C219 CLS-Class was based on the W211 E-Class platform,[15] and shares major components including the engines, transmissions and an identical wheelbase of 2,854 mm (112 in). The car is 95 mm (4 in) longer, 51 mm (2 in) wider, and 27 mm (1 in) lower in comparison, and features, according to Mercedes, a 30% stiffer suspension setup and faster steering.[16]

Design patents were filed on July 24, 2002.[17] The production version CLS500 debuted at the 2004 New York International Auto Show.[18]

Equipment

[edit]

Standard equipment includes heated automatically dimming mirrors, rain-sensing wipers, and an automatic climate control system.[19] The CLS-Class comes with front and side airbags, and a smart sensor system connected to the seatbelts and airbags that can detect and react to an accident.[20] Available options include: self-cleaning bi-xenon HID headlamps, radar-guided cruise control, keyless go, GPS navigation, Sensotronic Brake Control and AirMATIC air suspension that can be controlled from the driver and can be raised or lowered by 76 mm (3 in).[21]
