The new Mercedes-Benz E-Class may not look as dynamic as the recently-updated BMW 5 Series, but its understated styling will be well received by customers looking for an understated yet premium design. Unlike its closest rival, the new E-Class offers multiple powertrain options right from the get-go, along with two body trim options, and some unique features as well. However, it also comes at a slightly higher price tag than its rivals, which may cause buyers to think just a little.

Pros & Cons of Mercedes-Benz E-Class

• What we admire in this car

  • Even in 2024, Mercedes offers a diesel E-Class, unlike rivals like the 5 Series or A6, which are petrol-only
  • The Superscreen setup, consisting of three screens at the front, is available with every variant
  • The rear seat experience is very close to what the bigger S-Class offers, which starts at Rs 1.77 Cr.
  • The company also launched a performance variant, the E 450 4Matic, to cater to enthusiasts.
  • The Burmester 4D Surround Sound System transforms ordinary rides into concerts
  • Rear seats can be adjusted in multiple ways, elevating the experience
  • A big step forward from the previous generation in every department

• What could have been better

  • The main rival, the BMW 5 Series, starts at 72.90 lakh, which is 5.6 lakh cheaper than the E-Class
  • The three-screen setup is more of a showoff, as the front passenger really doesn’t need a dedicated screen.
  • Fingerprint smudges on the screens are annoying and spoil the look.
  • Due to its long wheelbase, one has to be careful when crossing a large bump

Mercedes-Benz E-Class Detailed Review

A healthy balance of the EQ influence with traditionally understated styling. 8

• The new E-Class’ design is more evolutionary than revolutionary. The new grille and headlights give off a very EQ-like vibe. The E 450 exclusively receives new Digital Headlights that adjust to the topography. 

• There are two body trims to choose from; Avantgarde, and AMG Line, both of which can be differentiated visually, such as the front bumper elements and AMG-spec alloy rims. You can choose from five paint schemes Nautic Blue, Polar White, High-tech Silver, Graphite Grey, Obsidian Black.

• The flush-fitting door handles are new, and they further add to the EQ influence. Along with the light 18-inch alloy rims, these changes make the new E-Class look even more premium.

• The resemblance to the S-Class becomes more apparent from the rear, with the shape of the roofline and the tailgate. It now gets connected tail lights which feature new tri-star DRL elements.

• The new E-Class comes with a marginally shorter wheelbase than the BMW 5 Series, measuring 3094mm, which is 11mm shorter, and that is despite the wheelbase gaining an extra 15mm.

Futuristic, luxurious interiors with a focus on sustainability. 9

• The Hyperscreen is similar to what we have seen on most new Mercedes-Benz cars; a 14.4-inch infotainment touch screen, 12.3-inch instrument cluster, and the 12.3-inch passenger screen running on the latest MBUX software.  

• The new E-Class focuses on sustainability, as Mercedes-Benz claims that 99kgs of components in its interiors are made out of sustainable, resource conserving materials.

• The AMG Line gets a flat-bottomed steering wheel, while the Avantgarde trim gets the normal one.
