2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Wagon

We were impressed with Mercedes-Benz's new C-Class in sedan form, and now we're assured a wagon is on the way as well. The wagon as a class unto itself is dwindling fast in the U.S., but European automakers are still developing them. The C-Class Estate, as it's known on the other side of the pond, has two distinctly different front grilles, just like the sedan. The Sport model maintains a large emblem front and center, and the Luxury model features thin lines more akin to the larger S-Class.

The new C-Class wagon has almost 10 percent more cargo volume than the outgoing model. There's also a standard collapsible shopping grate, which sounds useful even though we're not sure what it is. There's also an optional power tailgate and additional storage dividers.

With this radically different new look, perhaps the C-Class will rekindle the motoring public's love for wagons.
