Now that the 2010 Mercedes E-Class has been officially unveiled, it's only a matter of time before the estate variant of the new E makes its debut as well. While we're waiting for that momentous event to occur, here's a few new shots showcasing precisely what we have to look forward to from the upcoming model. Yes, there is still quite a bit of masking covering its various design attributes, but with a little imagination, you can make out to a large degree the amount of extra space the wagon holds over its sedan counterpart.

Not being much of a wagon connoisseur, I'll keep my thoughts on the E-Class Estate's design to myself. However, from a functional standpoint, I'm sure it will score very high on the practicability scale – assuming, of course, that you need to store a prodigious amount of crap in the back of your vehicle on a daily basis.
