E-Class (W213/C238/A238) [Official] Mercedes-Benz E-Class W213 Facelift

[Serpens]

The U.S. model E350 should have been had the 300hp I4. It would be a great selling point, but they pulled it at the last minute. Never understood why, oh @Serpens please??

Apparently it was all cost related. As you probably know there's a fair bit of Lexus owners that ping pong between the two brands. MBUSA couldn't keep the base price low enough at that time with the new motor and they figured [correctly] that fully loaded Lexus ES and fleeing GS owners don't care what's under the hood.

Seems strange to me given the ES starts $10k cheaper but consumers are never logical.

So, even the E suffers from 4MATIC-itis. If one wa...

What disease is that Dr. Briesgau?

What disease is that Dr. Briesgau?

Though the context gives it away, I welcome your question. 4MATIC-itis is a new, very infectious disease, with symptoms like:
- unnecessary 4 wheel drive;
- excessive weight gain;
- increase of fuel consumption;
- severe decrease in driving pleasure.

'Exclusive' looks better than the other two IMHO.

There is no such thing as a base model after the W213 MoPf/facelift. MB axed the base model as such. The new line starts with Avantgarde (= the new base model).

These photographs make me once again realize just how difficult it must be for segment-shoppers who are not diehard brand-junkies to make a purchasing decision. Each of the 3 "usual German premium suspects" offer a stellar product. It really all boils down to personal taste...and/or unwaivering brand affinities.

 

[Kukobana]

There is no more in the new e-class "DYNAMIC BODY CONTROL/AIR BODY CONTROL", WTF MERCEDES??? SO STUPID ...

Edit:
The configurator does not have this option, the price list includes ... Mercedes information quality ...

Agree! But for me when i bought the e class was between 5 series and e class, for me the a6 on the same price level being fwd made my decision simple.

It's growing on me! AMG trim is very clean and attractive.

I went onto the configurator and came up with a nice combination with the base Avantgarde spec for an E200 base engine.

Did they ditch the smaller screen with the analog gauge ?

this makes a big difference, it seems the base model is much acceptable with the dual screens.

 

[HUTSUTAo]

yes they did ditch the analog gauge but not the smaller screen. The screen for the lower spec model is smaller than the 12.3 inch screen
