Mercedes-BenzBuyers torn between the practicality of a sedan or SUV and the allure of a convertible no longer need to sacrifice. The latest convertible from Mercedes-Benz, the 2018 E-Class Cabriolet, has enough bells and whistles to cruise year-round. Arriving at dealerships later this year, the redesigned mid-size convertible will feature the automaker’s optional 4MATIC all-wheel drive system for the first time, as well as a handful of other features conducive to cold-weather driving. “Simply put, a convertible can make you feel good,” said Christian Fruh, the E-Class Cabriolet’s chief engineer. The number of models on the market offering all-wheel drive has more than doubled over the last five years to include nameplates from Audi, Bentley, BMW, Jaguar, Porsche, and Land Rover.
