Pros & Cons

Pros
  • Comes with a Powerful Engine
  • Rugged Nature
  • Well-sorted Ride and Handling Dynamics
  • Even in 2024, Mercedes offers a diesel E-Class, unlike rivals like the 5 Series or A6, which are petrol-only
  • The Superscreen setup, consisting of three screens at the front, is available with every variant
  • The rear seat experience is very close to what the bigger S-Class offers, which starts at Rs 1.77 Cr.
  • The company also launched a performance variant, the E 450 4Matic, to cater to enthusiasts.
  • The Burmester 4D Surround Sound System transforms ordinary rides into concerts
  • Rear seats can be adjusted in multiple ways, elevating the experience
  • A big step forward from the previous generation in every department
Cons
  • Expensive to Buy
  • Not A True Blue Off Roader Anymore
  • Quirky Looks are not to everyone's tastes
  • The main rival, the BMW 5 Series, starts at 72.90 lakh, which is 5.6 lakh cheaper than the E-Class
  • The three-screen setup is more of a showoff, as the front passenger really doesn’t need a dedicated screen.
  • Fingerprint smudges on the screens are annoying and spoil the look.
  • Due to its long wheelbase, one has to be careful when crossing a large bump
