Mercedes-Benz E-Class Cabriolet A238

Product Overview
Mercedes-Benz E-Class Cabriolet A238 is an executive convertible in production from 2017 to 2020, whereupon it received a facelift. It was available with a range of inline-4, inline-6, and V6 engines that displaced 1.9 to 3.0 liters.
Compared to the A207 E-Class Convertible that preceded it, the A238 is a much different product: It is notably larger and more upscale. Its styling has vastly improved, too. Mechanically, the car tops out with 6-cylinders while gaining widespread AWD nonsense. Manual transmission was only offered in the base model for a couple of model years before disappearing.
Instead, a lot of "mild-hybrid" nonsense began to show up: The mild-hybrid drivetrain enables new efficiency features, though the difference is, as the name suggests, mild.
Drivers who appreciate handling will be pleased to know that the Mercedes-Benz E-class A238 comes with multi-link suspensions at all four corners.
