SPY: The Mercedes-Benz E-Class (W 212) in for a mild update ahead of 2012

The W 212 generation of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class has been on market since early 2009 and now the German company plans to give the business limousine a minor refreshment for the upcoming 2012 model year. Basically, the visual makeovers will affect the front fascia, that is to receive revised headlamps equipped with LED technology as optional extra (visible through the inner design of the quad lights) and differently shaped daytime running lights. Probably, the 2012 E-Class will also receive Merc's newest assistance systems and will suffer slight efficiency improvements to the engine lineup as well.
