The new CLS has been caught in front of more than one camera. The stunning four-door, four-seat coupe was snapped by spies at a photo shoot, where official photographers were taking pictures for press material surrounding the new car’s launch.
As you can see from the pictures, the CLS features a much more angular, aggressive nose than the car it replaces. The new face is even more sharply contoured than the Concept Shooting Break Mercedes debuted at the Beijing Motor Show earlier this year.
We can also see that the creased shoulder line, (which runs from the top of the front wheelarch backwards) and the dramatically flared rear wheel arches (which look similar to those of the Bentley Continental GT), have all made production.
The rear lights and trapezoidal exhausts also stand out, giving the rear of the car a more obviously sculpted appearance than the previous generation CLS.
This particular model is the CLS 350 CGI, equipped with the firm’s V-Generation 3,5-litre engine that produces 225 kW and 370 N.m of torque. It features Mercedes’ fuel-saving BlueEfficiency technology and is the engine that featured in the Shooting Break concept.
More details and the full official set of pictures will be made available ahead of the car’s debut at this October’s Paris Motor Show.
