Mercedes-Benz E400 All-Terrain 4x4 Squared To Go Into Limited Production

Lieberman's first car was a hand-me-down wagon, which he wished to see covered in a flame job and fitted with big wheels. And it seems there's a like-minded engineer working at Mercedes-Benz, who with the help of his colleagues installed portal axels onto the E-Class All-Terrain which had just been launched.

Mercedes has had a lot of success with cars that are fitted with such off-road gear. The G63 6x6 sold about three times better than they thought it would. And they've already sold a thousand units of the G500 4x4 Squared.

According to this video, the E400 All-Terrain 4x4 Squared has been confirmed for limited production thanks to the success of its predecessors. That's news to us.

Lieberman believes a few things should change, such as the V6 engine, which is supposed to be replaced by an inline-6 fitted with a 48-volt electric system. He also wishes that the 4x4 Squared were combined with the E63 to make the wagon of his dreams.

Of course, such cars have limited appeal. I mean, who would want a family wagon with top luxury levels, a drift mode, off-roading capabilities and a 600+ HP V8 engine? Who wouldn't want one seems like a better question.

We'd be happy to settle for a regular E63, which is "like a fist in search of a face." Skiing adventures and rock climbing are way overrated. But hot laps of the Nurburgring in the family car sounds like the ideal vacation.
