E-Class W213 [Official] Mercedes-Benz E-Class W213 Facelift


The W213 Mercedes-Benz E-Class is the fifth generation of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, sold from 2016 as a 2017 model. It succeeded the W212/S212 E-Class models. The coupe/convertible models share the same platform as the sedan/wagon, in contrast to the previous generation. The high-performance Mercedes-AMG E63 and E63S versions of the W213 have been available as well from 2016 (as a 2017 model), and these are the only versions with V8 engines.

The expanse of shiny black plastic on the steering wheel looks out of place in that otherwise tasteful spec.
 
With that steering wheel , I think we get a glimpse of the future W223 steering wheel

I mean , the use of wood. The AMG version with wood should look impressive
 
Hi All this is my first post though I am a long time lurker and a fan of this forum.

Does anyone know when this car is out in the UK? Seems to keep getting pushed back. I am really liking the look of this new E-Class.
 
That’s good, not long away! Hopefully Mercedes UK don’t starve us of all the options as they sometimes do.
 
Tell me about it. If the new GLE coupe is anything to go by, there are only 2 options on the 400d and 53amg - a towbar kit and metallic paint. Even the fragancing thing and ventilated seats are standard. Yet the massage seats, the energizing packet plus is neglected here.. It's interesting, even forcing wheel choices, where as some countries are allowed the 63amg wheels and matte paint on the 53's! On the current E63s, they wouldn't do massage seats, wouldn't let me order an 88 litre fuel tank at the time (which was eventually brought to UK a year later) couldn't have ventilated seats, the light up burmester extra speakers - yet Germany, buy a 2 litre E and have almost anything. Whacky ideas. I asked the sales guy how many E63's they had sold with non metallic paint - said even a Kia comes with it, he agreed, said Milton Keynes are often backwards.
 
Tell me about it. If the new GLE coupe is anything...

Infuriating. Especially on a premium product in a market as big as the UK.

There are signs MB Australia is improving a little in terms of customisability, but MB prices here are certainly on the increase. I guess they can afford to do so with such market dominance.
 
Absolutely agreed, especially when Bmw on the 5 series give a ton load of options most of which we wouldn’t know what they do but at least they are available. I am liking this facelift especially with the mild hybrids should be good for a long time yet.
 

Does the facelifted E63s have any mechanical updates over the 2017 model or is it just cosmetic changes and an updated interior and userinterface? just wondering if there are any updates to the engine, gearbox, suspension and brakes?
