You can choose from a range of exterior paint options, including iridium, palladium, brilliant blue and polar white. According to the same source, Mercedes-Benz will replace the Elegance trim by Line Exclusive. However, it will use some of the technology found in the S-Class flagship.

Airmatic suspension, keyless-go system, and an adjustable radiator shutter (visually noticeable) will all be included in the Line Exclusive version.
