Model Overview:

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.

  • Babyboomers rocketship - 2004 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
    By -

    As a performance enthusist, I was totally lost since my corvette days. Having a family with kids made 2 seaters impractical. I saw a write up on this car in a magazine and ordered it the next day. First one in the state I believe. The car is Platinum blue which the women love. Anyway, horsepower and torque make this the sweetest car Ive ever driven. Getting onto the highway is a blast. This car pulls so strong, Im wondering how I dont break something. The brakes have been noted as quirky, but to me they work great. This is, to me, the best family sedan made for us babyboomers who must have seating for four or five, and want to relive our youth.

  • Great car - 2003 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
    By -

    It is my third E-320, and every time it just keeps getting better. The new DVD-based navigation system has its flaws, and is not as accurate as in other cars Ive driven, but it is at times a life saver :-) Overall a great car.

  • last mistake - 1998 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
    By -

    Unbeleivable that this car can have something go wrong every six months like clock work. I drove my Lexus for over 125000 miles with one repair (air) In 84000 miles I have had to replace both rear window motors, engine sensors twice, air fan unit,and a oil seal--a friend told me he carries oil in his trunk. I wont make this mistake again.

  • Disappointing - 2006 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
    By -

    I’ve always wanted a Mercedes. To me, they were the epitome of luxury cars. Im sorry to say I have been terribly disappointed. For what I paid I expected a top of the line vehicle, but got far less than I could have gotten from a new Camry. To start with, the navigation system is very important to me, yet the E320 has no touch screen, no voice command, not even blue tooth (some Japanese economy cars have blue tooth). In fact, the processor is so slow it can’t present but a few streets at a time, and has no readable compass in the nav mode. No right arm rest for the driver if you use the cup holder. I could go on but space is limited. I wish I hadn’t given up my Camry for this car.

  • Impressions after 3 months - 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
    By -

    E550 coupe beautiful to look at and super light on its feet. Sleek and such a head turner Ive only seen one other in my large city in 3 months. What I dont like- I hate the Eco mode and that it cant be turned off permanently. Its smooth as silk when riding in comfort mode- you hardly notice it but if you are like me and like to drive it in sports mode you wont be happy. Its a obvious feeling/ sound. I now just turn it off nearly every start because I mainly drive I. The city and its just annoying to have it power down each stop. Internet radio is a waste- it takes like 5 min to get a signal and forget changing the Chanel it has to reload all over again.

  • My Benz- - 1999 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
    By -

    Well built, strong automoblie. Also, has very high resale. The bose stereo is wonderful! I still cant beleive the great MPG I get, 22-25. On a V6, 215 HP, almost full size sedan. Not too bad. Rear wheel drive is the only way to go!

  • Electronic Nightmare - 1996 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
    By -

    This car looks and feels great. Its eye catching, and sturdy. The V6 can hold its own but the maintenance especially the electrical problems are killing A dashboard light comes on every month. Notorious problems include faulty EGR valves, sensors, bulbs and a shoddy Bose stero system. Ive owned the car for 8 months and have spent about 2k in minor repairs.

  • If you can do it - 2006 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
    By -

    Although a push financially, the E55 is a monster swaddled in Armani. An understated, elegant, every day driver that will dust anything that challenges the "55" nameplate. And they will challenge it. Think of a brand new Aston Martin Vanquish pulling up hard on your right, the light changes and the Vanquish is "Vanquished" three car lengths behind. Hard to put a price tag on that moment. I couldnt. The E55 has cult status. Everyone asks,"Can it really do what they say it can". Yes. Yes it can. And then some. If youre throwing your hat in the super performance car ring, the E55 has to be considered. It can haul kids, signifcant others, friends to dinner, as well as plain out "haul".

  • My first Benz! - 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
    By -

    Extremely slick and smooth ride! My first Benz and I am certain, it will not be my last!

  • MBZ and I like IT!!!!! - 1997 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
    By -

    I bought this car from San Ramon German Motors. It had 22000 miles when I got it. It has 25k now. Awsome car. The sound system is remarkable. The interior is well layed out. Everything is were you need it. I especially like the Adjustable seats. The integrated key and infrared fob thing is one of the best parts....No seperate fob. (jay)
