DETROIT (WXYZ) - Hollywood came to Detroit as Diane Kruger and Joshua Jackson joined Dieter Zetsche to introduce the new Mercedes-Benz E-Class cars.
Kruger, known for her role in the film Inglourious Basterds, said she and her fiance, Jackson, drive a hydrogen fuel cell-powered Mercedes in Los Angeles.
Jackson acted in Dawson's Creek before his current role in the TV series Fringe.
Kruger told Zetsche, the Head of Mercedes-Benz Cars, that she appreciated the opportunity to drive a new E-Series electric drive vehicle while filming recently in Berlin.
For added star power, musician Bruce Hornsby - and his piano - provided live music at the Mercedes-Benz event.
