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


The Mercedes-Benz W213 is the fifth generation of the E-Class range. Body styles: sedan/saloon (W213), wagon/estate (S213), long wheelbase (V213), coupé (C238), cabriolet (A238). Production: 2016–2023. Predecessor: W212 E-Class. Successor: W214 E-Class, C236/A236 CLE.
This long wheelbase E-class looks majestic and really elegant as a mini Maybach S-class look a like. The size of this car is only 50mm less than a standard wheelbase S-class (5068mm vs 5116mm) but it has a longer wheelbase (3079mm vs 3035mm) than the S-class so it must have supreme rear legroom.
 
I think it's just a stylised Letter "L" as for LONG. Not my cup of tea but who cares.
It is an artistic symbol of Chinese charactor "北" ,which refers to "北京"(Beijing)where the car being made.

FInally Did a test drive yesterday in London. The E220D SE AMG trim with the works. The Diesel engine has improved dramatically - much more refined than before and quick to respond to the accelerator. The interior is very nice as was the ride - but to my utter disappointment, I wasn't blown away. It was great but not enough to make me pull out the cheque book on the spot. gutted

For me, the trimmings behind the rear seats (i.e. the rear shelf) looks a bit mediocre and cheap.
Also that cup holder/champagne holder looks like an aftermarket job with spare parts from the older generation Merc.
 
why the hell did they put that ipad in the back? this is the bad influence of BMW, its like a really shitty friend giving you bad ideas:D
 
Where did it fall short of expectations?
It didn't feel luxurious enough. I walked away with the impression that all the new technology - which is very exciting by the way - was meant to distract us from the fact that the inside isn't as wow as i would expect from an E class. There's only so long that the new dash and digital instruments etc will provide a thrill. In the longer run its got to be the feeling of having a really top end experience when you sink into the seats or when you pull away from the kerb. Wasn't feeling it I'm afraid
 
Respect your opinion but I don't understand how more luxurious the E can be. The previous E wasn't that luxurious ether and there is no way E can match the luxury of an S class. The new E is luxurious enough for its class and all the journalists were deeply wowed by the interior fit and finish and quality.

I guess that's really it - after all the press noise about the interiors , I went in expecting a real step up from previous E-Class. I did actually go in "locked and ready to buy" as my current E Class is ready for a change, even willing to buy a diesel (!) but couldn't pull the trigger. I'm going to let this sink in before I make any decisions

That's what I thought when I first seen it, but if my memory serves me right, they all use the same supplier for their respective systems. So I think we might see the iPad in the back come S-Class' facelift time.
 
If I'm not mistaken, I believe BMW uses a Samsung Android tablet. These pictures seem to indicate MB is using it's own proprietary hardware/software solution here.

IMO, the BMW solution makes more sense since Android is open source and the possibilities of what you can make the tablet do are endless.

So what other cars in it's class are you considering since the E-class is considered at the top of it's class for interior luxury. It's interesting to hear opinions from someone actually in the market for the car.
 
I have tried Audi A6, BMW 5-series and Lexus GS. I have ordered an MB E220d, as the competitors are clearly behind the E-class as a whole package. Especially the interior in the MB feels much more luxurious than the competitors. In particular the BMW felt dated compared to the competition.
