This time the prestigious German award has left to Stuttgart home a new star in a segment of business sedans — Mercedes-Benz an E-class. It is possible for the company and it is necessary to be proud of such result as the victory is gained in struggle over 83 models-applicants, and also that it was possible to bypass among other and models from Ingolstadt — Audi have been always very favourite by readers Auto Bild.

And after all the sum of actives of the companies, not a sales volume of cars to Germany and not knowledge engineers of German language, and design undertakes in calculation not. In this component designers Saab obviously have not deserved such fate.
