These cars are for people that love the E class or 5 series but want more power. The E class has 3 different models including the e63 and the 5 series has 6 models including the M5..enough choices for anyone looking at these cars!

I can't wait to see what the new S class hybrid can do..it is estimated to get 41 miles per gallon on the highway!!!

That's what I love about MB. They give you options from both extreme ends of the spectrum. Taking the E-Class as an example, in the U.S. you get the E63 AMG high-performance monster that few cars can rival in terms of power and straight-line acceleration, but on the same dealership lot you'll find the E320 Bluetec which gets mid-35 mpg easily.

Couldn't have said better myself.

They are also coming out with an ML hybrid which gets 30 miles per gallon and the C class hybrid which is suppose to get 50 miles per gallon.

Some many choices for the consumer!
