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.

  I love this car! - 2005 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
  By James - October 30 - 6:40 pm

  I live approx. 26 miles from work. I needed a nice luxury car with good gas mileage since my last ride was a Hummer H2. This car has it all. Good gas mileage, a perfect blend of comfort and sportiness and luxury. Safety features are top notch. I feel very safe, secure, and pampered in this car. Funny thing with this car is the faster I drive it, the better gas mileage I get. I drove it to California and averaged about 33 mpg. I usually get 28 back and forth from work. First thing I did was put on some custom chrome wheels. So far had the car for 4 months and no problems. If you do purchase this car make sure you take time at delivery to learn all the great things this car can do

  Love My "E" - 2001 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
  By James McDuffie - October 20 - 7:56 am

  This is my first Mercedes-Benz. Many of my friends already owned one, so I had a lot of exposure to them. Once I started looking for a new vehicle, Mercedes was at the top of my list. I also seriously considered the BMW 5- and 7-series, Audi A4 & A6, Volvo, Lincoln, Buick, Cadillac, and Mercedes S-class. From the beginning the E-320 was my favorite.

  Perfect Balance of Quality and Economy - 2005 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
  By hwvalentine - October 20 - 6:36 am

  After 23,000 miles, not one problem. The build quality does not disappoint as in some previous Mercedes. The performance and economy of the diesel engine is unbelievable. My round-trip comute of 36 miles averaged 19 mpg in a 6 cyl. Grand Cherokee; the E320 averages 32. Best mileage was 41 for a long road trip and never lower than 26 in city driving. The diesel definitely prefers hot weather as highway milage drops about 4 mpg in the winter. The small items of bad news: the electric brakes have no reason to exist, there is no oil dipstick, the electronics are difficult to set, the stone colored carpet and mats are impossible to keep clean, and MB is not interested in owner feedback.

  My 1st E-320 Mercedes - 2004 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
  By jecdl - October 4 - 2:00 am

  Have only had it for 2 months -- less than 1000 miles. Superb quailty. Quietest car Ive ever owned. Gorgeous interior. Peppy acceleration. Sporty and sleek exterior. No problems so far.. Some people have complained about the "hard to modulate" brakes, but I havnt had any trouble using them. And the brakes are quite strong.

  Excellent Vehicle - 1997 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
  By - October 2 - 10:00 am

  This is the best car that I have ever owned! It is good to buy them 3 years used because of depreciation. The acceleration of the inline 6 is swift and smooth. Of course the reliability is top notch. The timing chain helps prolong the life of the motor. The build quality is unparalleled for a production car. I love the solid sounding "Thunk" when I shut the door. The interior is tastefully decorated and is extremely quiet. Other than that the car is perfect. It is a perfect blend of performance, style, class and luxury.
