Performance & Driver Assistance
You have numerous powertrain options to choose from with the Mercedes-Benz E-Class Sedan. Included as standard is a 2.0L inline-4 turbo engine which produces 255 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque. If you crave more power, the optional 3.0-liter inline-6 turbocharged engine boasts 362 horsepower along with 369 lb-ft of torque.

DYNAMIC SELECT gives drivers the ability to fine-tune the driving character of the E-Class.
Sophisticated Interior
While offering an elegantly athletic exterior design, the interior of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class Sedan is thoughtfully crafted to awaken your senses. An optional Air Balance cabin-air ionizer and aromatherapy system help you relax with continuous fresh air inside the cabin. A panoramic 12.3-inch screen centralizes navigation, entertainment, and countless comfort features using sharper graphics and more intuitive menus. Standard MBnavigation helps get you to your destination effortlessly with 3D maps, live traffic, searching via Yelp or HERE™, along with lane advice before turns. Expertly-sculpted seats are tailored to match the muscles in your body for superior comfort. Sweeping from door-to-door, exotic yet sustainable woods add a luxurious accent to the interior while 64-color LED ambiance helps set the mood.
Innovative Safety
Safety has been a hallmark for the E-Class Sedan for decades and today’s model is no exception to this tradition. Featuring Car‑to‑X Communication, the E-Class is connected to a centralized information source that can send you in-car updates about driving conditions and potential hazards before you get to them. An industry first, PRESAFE® Sound can sense an impending collision, and emit a safe “pink noise” via the audio system to pre-trigger your ears’ natural defense against the loud noises of an accident. In the event of a side collision, PRESAFE® Impulse Side can rapidly inflate the front-seat bolster to move you further from an intrusion and help reduce the forces of impact. DRIVE PILOT takes intelligent cruise control to a new level with the ability to change lanes with just a touch of the turn-signal lever.
