Overview & Reviews

A favorite in the midsize luxury car class, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class has provided an appealing mix of comfort, performance and safety for decades. The trademark qualities of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, such as vaultlike solidity and cutting-edge technology, have also contributed to the E-Class' great popularity among luxury buyers.

Over the years, the E-Class has been offered as a sedan, wagon, coupe and convertible. Contemporary E-Class models come loaded with luxury features and offer stunning acceleration in higher trim levels, with diesel power available if you want to maximize your fuel economy. The E-Class has never been the sportiest car in its segment, but its handling has improved significantly in recent years. Rivals are better in certain respects, but if you're looking for the complete package in a medium-size luxury car, an E-Class will be hard to beat.

  Best car ever, and Ive had many: - 2011 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
  By Schnooky Glick - January 15 - 10:00 am

  I have had many convertibles and sports cars in my 67 years - and this is the best yet. Wonderful ride, plenty more acceleration that I really need, and with the top up or down, it feels as if everyone else is looking my way. Especially when the drivers pull along side on I-95, and fall in behind me.

  Quick - 2005 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
  By Glenn - January 12 - 4:30 pm

  The seven speed transmission and 304 HP engine give the E500 the ability to make even the most routine trip a fun experience. The car responds with you press the gas pedal. The feel of the brake-by-wire requires a little getting used to, but the brakes are excellent. A well engineered vehicle as would be expected for this price level car.

  Ilove this car. It has a powerful V-6 engine and it has wondeful space for running around the city in.

  GOOD BUY - 2002 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
  By Jon Smithy - January 10 - 10:00 am

  In a sea of pretenders, the E430 is the real deal. You will not be disappointed!

  So far so good. - 2006 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
  By Johnny5 - December 31 - 12:26 am

  I just got my 2006 E350 4Matic and so far, things are going great. I love the power shade, the quality of the standard stereo system, and the integrated 6 disk changer. The 4matic seems to have a little trouble choosing gears but that may by own perception. I love the distinguished look of the car and the maturity level it portrays since Im only 28 and use the car mostly for business.

  On my second one - 2006 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
  By Jennifer - December 28 - 7:30 am

  Im on my second new generation E- class, the first one having been a 2003 model, the first year of its new profile. The 2006 now has a 6-speed automatic relative to the previous 4- speeed, and navigation, which was too new and not yet introduced to my previous car. They dont drive like BMWs, but when you drive 60+ miles a day, this is both fun and extremely comfortable, for your passengers too. Gear shifter seems more responsive than before, and thats not just because of the shorter gear ratios.

  By Kasasbeh - December 26 - 11:20 pm

  This is a great vehicle. Disclaimer: wife drives it during the week, I drive it on weekends when we go out together. Awesome vehicle, all around. Love driving it, handling is awesome. The exterior color is culprit brown: its beautiful - but its a color my wife picked. Interior is a beautiful shade of reddish brown.

  SO FAR SO GOOD - 2004 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
  By SWASSERMAN - December 25 - 10:00 am

  I have only had this car for a week, so this review is obviously limited. Traded up from a 1997 Lexus E300. This car is beautiful, with a smooth powerful drive. Checked out VIN w/dealership to make sure it was not part of the recalls (on Edmunds) --so far have not had any mechanical/electrical problems for which Mercedes is becoming quickly known. Disappointed that leather seats are not as cushy as Lexus and are not even an option on E500. Also, Nav system is somewhat complicated to program.

  Mercedes E430 - Excellent - 1999 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
  By Clark Christensen - December 23 - 2:00 am

  Excellent machine - I will continue to buy Mercedes sedans the rest of my life. I like it so much, I cant imagine parting with it in the next 10 years.
