This Is New Mercedes CLS, Undisguised Photos

The new CLS has been caught in front of more than one camera. The stunning four-door, four-seat coupe was snapped by our spies at a photo shoot, where official photographers were taking pictures for press material surrounding the new car 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 like those on the Bentley Continental GT have all made production.

The rear lights and the trapezoidal exhausts also stand out, giving the rear of the car a more obviously sculpted appearance than the previous generation of CLS.

This particular model is the CLS 350CGI, equipped with the V-Generation 3.5-litre engine which produces 302 HP and 273 lb-ft 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 debut at this October at Paris Motor Show.
