“Oh lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes-Benz,” sang the fabulous Janis Joplin.

Even if she had passed away long ago, dahlings, her ghost still might be singing those lyrics, especially now that the new E-Class Benz has arrived.

The world’s authority on automotive innovation and design is again raising the standard in luxury sedans by launching the gorgeous E-Class.

“E-Class boasts a sensual interior with spacious architecture that gives it a luxurious edge over its contemporaries,” said Felix R. Ang of Auto Nation Group Inc. during the launch.

“Warm shades of brown leather suit ergonomically designed seats, balancing a sporty aesthetic with long-ride comfort seating,” he added. “Open-pore wood accents and an impressive 64-color interior lighting make the new E-Class ambient.”

“The driving dynamics of the new E-Class rules with its stellar specs,” said Daimler South East Asia CEO Wolfgang Huppenbauer. “Powered by a 2.0-L inline four-cylinder petrol engine and geared with the new 9G-Tronic nine-speed automatic transmission, this masterpiece is able to swiftly change gears with low-engine revs, promoting fuel efficiency and manageably low noise levels.”
