Nasser Bin Khaled (NBK) Automobiles, the authorised general distributor of Mercedes-Benz in Qatar, launched the all-new E-Class and revealed the brand new GLA along with the all-new seven-seater GLB in a special event at NBK showroom on Salwa Road. 
Sheikh Faleh bin Nawaf al-Thani, managing director-Auto, NBK Group; Ihab El-Feky, director, NBK Automobiles; other senior officials and guests were present.
Sheikh Faleh said: “NBK Automobiles is proud to launch the all-new Mercedes-Benz fascinating cars as part of our strategic plans. We will continue to bring Qatar the best and latest innovation from the reputable international brand. Qatar is one of the main target markets for Mercedes-Benz, and the position of the brand indicates the close relations we have.” 
El-Feky pointed out that the E-Class was always at the heart of the Mercedes-Benz family, and today it is the most intelligent and sporty car in its category.  “We are pleased with the debut of a new joiner, the new seven-seater GLB that will redefine its category,” he added.
The all-new E class shines with its fascinating design and state-of-the-art features. The entry-level model already comes with the sporty Avantgarde Line exterior. As a result, the base model of the E Class Sedan features a central star at the front for the first time. 
The E-Class Sedan features all-LED headlamps as standard. The three new paint colours available are high-tech silver metallic, graphite grey metallic and mojave silver metallic. The wheel line-up now includes aero wheels, which also contribute to saving fuel. New upholstery colours and materials upgrade the interior.
The new E-Class Sedan is equipped with the latest Mercedes-Benz driving assistance systems and the MBUX multimedia system (Mercedes-Benz User Experience). As standard for the region, it includes two large 12.3 inch/31.2 cm screens that are arranged side by side for a widescreen look. With its expressive coupe proportions, clear and sensual design and long-distance comfort for four people, the new E-Class Coupe combines the beauty and classic virtues of a grand tourer with state-of-the-art technology. It also offers the intelligence of the E-Class family with full Smartphone Integration, Widescreen Cockpit and the latest driver assistance systems with the option of, among other things, partially automated driving. 
Based technically on the Saloon, the sporty and exclusive Coupe marks a next step in the evolution of the Mercedes-Benz design idiom. 
The new GLA comes with powerful and efficient four-cylinder engines, the latest driving assistance systems with co-operative driver support, and the MBUX infotainment system with intuitive operation. Although shorter than its predecessor on the outside, the new GLA offers a more spacious interior. This particularly benefits legroom in the rear and the luggage compartment. 
The new Mercedes-Benz GLB is a versatile SUV and a spacious family car: on request it is the first Mercedes-Benz in this segment available as a seven-seater. The extensive safety equipment includes retractable head restraints, seat belts with belt tensioners, and a side window airbag which also protects the passengers in the third seat row plus ISOFIX and TOP-Tether anchorages for suitable child seats.
The GLB 250 4MATIC is equipped with the permanent all-wheel system 4MATIC, with fully-variable torque distribution. This sporty all-wheel drive configuration allows the driver to use the Dynamic Select switch to influence the characteristics of 4MATIC.
