After unveiling the latest C-Class sedans last March at the Geneva Motor Show, Mercedes-Benz is taking the wraps off the new C-Class Estate in Frankfurt next month. Aside from stretching the roofline back, there isn't a lot different from the sedan. Cargo volume in the back ranges from 17 cu.ft with the back seats up to 53 cu.ft with the seats folded.

That rear cargo space features plenty of tie-down hooks and a collapsable storage crate for storing those groceries you don't want sliding around. European models get a full range of four- and six-cylinder gas and diesel engines, with the range-topper being the 3.5L V-6. here in the US, we'll probably only see the bigger sixes initially with a diesel probably following later. All the details from Mercedes are pasted after the jump.
