Mercedes Benz CLS Grand Edition

In the CLS Grand Edition they have taken luxury and sleek design to new levels. It features exclusive matt paint along with additional exterior equipment that includes:
-Bi-xenon headlamps with dark headlamp casings, active light function and cornering light function in the fog lamps, headlamp cleaning system, and dynamic headlamp range adjustment
-Exclusive, high sheen AMG18-inch 5-spoke light alloy wheels with pockets painted in titanium grey, shod with 245/40 R 18 (front) and 275/35 R 18 (rear) tyres
-A "Grand Edition" insignia on the front wings.

Interior:
The elegance continues inside the car, where there is a perfectly matched interior and roof lining in anthracite Alcantara, together with the standard-fit tilting/sliding glass roof. Special touches are provided by leather upholstery, available in several colours. The trim elements in high quality laurel wood can be ordered with either a matt or a high gloss finish. The same material is used for the gear selector lever and the wood/leather steering wheel. Sport pedals in brushed stainless steel with rubber studs underline the sporting credentials of the CLS Grand Edition. The extensive range of equipment includes the sophisticated COMAND APS Mult-imedia control and display system, comfort telephony, parktronic and "Grand Edition" velour floor mats.

Models:
When the CLS Grand Edition arrives in Australian Mercedes-Benz showrooms this May, Australian customers will be able to choose from two powerful and efficient petrol powered versions: the CLS 350 and the CLS 500 Grand Edition. The CLS 350 Grand Edition will offer a refined and strong 215kW and 365Nm of power and torque from its 3.5-litre engine, returning a fuel consumption rate of 11.0-litres per 100km (according to ADR 81/01). Transmitting this torque to the rear wheels is Mercedes-Benz's own 7G-TRONIC 7-speed automatic transmission, helping achieve a swift 0-100km/h time of 6.7 seconds. Customers seeking additional excitement will be able to opt for the CLS 500 Grand Edition, whose effortless performance comes from its 285kW/530Nm 5.5-litre V8 engine. Not only does this model get to 100km/h from a stand still in only 5.4 seconds, it also burns only 11.6-litres of premium fuel every 100km (according to ADR 81/01), aided in part by the smooth-shifting 7G-TRONIC gearbox.

Pricing for the CLS Grand Edition will be announced prior to its Australian release.
